Wow

3 of the officers found not guilty by an all white jury from Chattanooga.

Uh, not so fast.

Y’all didn’t think it could end without controversy right?

All white jury.

The other jury is still out on which side they need to riot on. This one is tricky.

That is quite a conundrum... black victim, black perps, white jury... and I was sure I read back when this happened some pretty unsavory info on the 'cops'.

Those cops murdered that man in cold blood.

They will burn in hell forever eventually.

Is ironic that black defendants moved to a white area to seek justice?

I am going to have to reread info on this, but I thought there was a connection between the victim to one of the cops who started the beating.

EDIT: ironic that black defendants moved the location for the residents chosen for the jury to a white area to seek justice as trial still done in Memphis area.

Ok so ironic that black defendants moved the location of the jury pool to being drawn from a white area to seek justice.

Jury I’m assuming made the correction decision. Only ironic thing is if the cops were white there would have been harder pushes to convict them by the black community. And it probably would have happened.

Not shot I would want to be a white cop in a heavily black area.

The George Floyd Memorial Hunger Games soon to start. Although, they may have a hard time considering the 3 found not guilty were black.

It really isn't. They should be guilty. What they did was really fricked up.

If it's the story I'm thinking of, you're very right.

What’s crazy is one of them took federal and state pleas to testify against the others. And they got off and he goes to jail to get turned into a trick. Or death.

Radio said 2 plead guilty prior. Now these 3 walk. I think they still have federal charges?
