no new evidence. you can still use what was used in district court

if this heart tissue is new then not sure how they plan on doing this


I wonder if they wanted to proffer the evidence when they were before the trial court and needed to be able to test it for the proffer and were refused.

I still can’t believe WOKE arse LSU lit the stadium in George Floyd colors. How gay is that? LSU is too woke.


Yep

I would like to see LSU light up TS in Daniel Penny's HS colors. And erect a statue of Gary Plauche. And restore Gen. Middleton's name. And send Tate away with his body of woke dogma with him.

Chauvin was doing exactly what he was trained to do as a LEO. And he's in jail for it.

Cops are trained first responders.

No one trained him to kneel on people who are ODing.

and again, that’s the MOST favorable read of the situation

Chauvin had worked with him before, so knew him as what he was.





I still think it's interesting that the defense, the media, and especially the prosecution so scrupulously avoided the entire matter of their previous acquaintance. Was it mentioned at all during the trial? Seems relevant.

well the next 3 words were “who are ODing”

Pretty important to the sentence

Do you think “kneel on them and do nothing” was in his first aid instructions?

If you watch the documentary about Minneapolis, the technique Chauvin used was taught in the manual and the academy. When the pressure came down, the Chief of Police tried to pretend it wasn’t, though multiple cops showed the manual and diagrams illustrating the technique Chauvin used on Floyd.


The “Technique” did not kill him . He overdosed on drugs !

why isn't the report in his autopsy that he died of drug OD not good enough?

Can we please name all of the controversies Obama gyrated to race bait cause disdain and divide?

Jussie got caught

The MAGA hat kid fought back

Ferguson

The entire birth of the radical BLM movement under the guise of the black panthers.

It’s one thing to never update your opinion of Tate. it’s another to blame him for things that happened before he was the President of LSU.

So what's stopping Tate from advocating for the actions noted save departing? What's stopping Tate from condemning the actions that were taken? What's stopping Tate from repudiating his life body of work that was rooted in CRT? What's stopping Tate from really flushing LSU's DEI initiatives as opposed to camouflaging them? When he assumed his position, doesn't he assume responsibility to correct the wrongs staring him in the face?

And isn't the premise of his views to blame others for things that happened before . . .? Hmmm

I have been wary for Tate from the start considering his background, but he has not been the woke disaster I (and many) feared. Also, Tom Galligan (interim President) lit up the stadium.

What if the defense team asked for it before or during the trial and were denied by the District Court judge? Wouldn’t that be a grounds for appeal? And couldn’t the appellate court rule that the defense team is entitled to the heart tissue to determine the actual cause of death?

I do remember that during the trial, the defense team had an extremely hard time finding a pathologist because of the death threats being made to any pathologist who would dare testify on behalf of Chauvin. Perhaps the court also ruled that Chauvin's pathologist could not have access to the heart tissue.

I don’t care who you are, but you would have to be a special kind of f*cking stupid to think that Chauvin had anything resembling a fair and unbiased trial.

common sense mostly.

The premise of his research was that we should find different methods of teaching math to black kids.

I posited that in a subsequent post regarding a proffer of evidence.

Based on the ECF stamp on the pleading, this is in federal district court.

Did a quick search. Looks like he filed a motion to vacate his plea and conviction in the trial court, and this is a motion for discovery in connection with that.

Ah.

I thought this was having to do with the state case/appeal.

Makes sense now.

Floyd was dead in this picture. The entire world saw the videos.

Defending Chauvin and claiming he's not a prick ... is wrong.

He's not a murderer, we all agree with that fact. But he's a raging prick.

Bad optics. Period.

Knee in dead man's neck who was pleading for air because he has overdosed on opiods ... hands in pockets, eat shite look on his face.

Bad optics, period.

And he could have administered Narcon ... they had it in their kits. But he chose not to do so ... and this country burned, and statues toppled, and assclown libtard politicians and media danced in the burning streets during so-called "peaceful protests."

... because Chauvin is a fricking prick.

Anyone who looks at that picture above and continues to deny the bad optics of it all is a gosh damn idiot.

Bad optics. Period.
