George Floyd the verdict....

There is never any excuse for the people whose job it is to serve and protect to be armed or to kill. Nothing can justify that.

Whitewavemark2, he'll do at least 40 years, not 15/20.

*Whitewavemark2*, he'll do at least 40 years, not 15/20.

Well, I can only quote a lawyer on CNN - so

The sentence very much depends on all sorts of variables.

So if you were found guilty of murder and had a criminal past, then anything up to 40 is possible.

If you have no criminal past then it will be much less - so between 10 to 20 years is more likely, for each of the 3 convictions. These sentences will run concurrently, so he will be in prison for up to 20 years if the lawyer is correct in his assumptions.

AGAA4

Sorry Whitewavemark2 I am a bit touchy after 2nd vaccine and not seeing that it was facetious.

When did you have your vaccine AGA? A few people seem to have problems in the first 24 hours. Hopefully, they will disappear soon.

Hopefully his sentence will run consecutively. After all, they are very serious offences

I'd read 40 years in a few articles but we won't know for 8 weeks.

I'd be quite pleased for him never to be released.

I would like a fair sentence.

Yes it is true that he has never been found guilty of any criminal act, but he was a policeman expected to defend and uphold the law. He should be in a trusted position (I know that is questionable) but he failed on all counts. He was known to be violent and whether this will be taken into account I have no idea.

I assume the judge will explain his final sentencing decision.

That will be interesting to read.
