No way in hell Derek Chauvin is going to jail. America is as bad as it was in Jim Crow and no one is doing anything to stop it.
he jury hearing the case of three St. Louis police officers accused of assaulting an undercover detective during a 2017 protest issued a partial verdict Monday afternoon. Steven Korte, Christopher Myers and Dustin Boone were indicted on a charge of deprivation of rights under the color of law. Korte also faced a charge of lying to the FBI and Myers faced an additional charge of destroying evidence. Officers Baily Colletta and Randy Hays were also indicted but have pleaded guilty. Monday, Korte was found not guilty on all counts, Myers was found not guilty on the charge of deprivation of rights, and had a mistrial declared on the charge of destroying evidence. Boone had a mistrial declared in regards to his charge of deprivation of rights. The jury deliberated for more than 13 hours. Heather Taylor, spokesperson for the Ethical Society of Police (ESOP), was outspoken about the verdict, saying it was a miscarriage of justice. "Here we are police officers. I've been shot at, I've been called every name in the book for trying to do what's right. Just like Luther," she said. "Today a jury of mostly white males and white women made a decision ignoring evidence and we're left to settle with that." ESOP also released the following statement: The Ethical Society of Police respects the decision of the jury, but we strongly disagree with the verdict. There was clear evidence to convict former St. Louis City Police Officers Christopher Myers, Dustin Boone, and Steven Korte. The injuries Detective Luther Hall sustained were consistent with being beaten by multiple subjects. Police officers continue to escape the consequences of their actions. The criminal justice system continues to show African-American victims of police violence we do not receive the same level of justice when white police officers are accused of excessive force toward African Americans."
Lucky that a few of them plead guilty , if not that all of them would have walked. I know it going to change soon because all of the South is changing . I use to say after you go left past GA it becomes 1954 until you hit Texas. But now it just the all as whole .
