Did y'all get to see the CNN interview with the Jury? I think the powers that be want it flushed down the memory hole.
1) I thought the State's coroner lied calling Floyd's death a homicide. I thought the MMA guy perjured himself as he wanted a conviction. That since has born some fruit. We've heard that the coroner felt political pressure to report as he did admitting the evidence didn't fit the already agreed upon narrative.
BUT
2) None of that would have mattered. I think tptb wanted to say nothing has to change systemically: Chauvin is just a bad apple. Instead, in the CNN interview, they state what got Chauvin 2nd degree murder was his apparent depraved indifference to do his duty by Floyd. Floyd was in Chauvin's custody and care and he showed little interest in doing anything to help the obviously distressed (and dying) man.
I'd never thought of it that way before (that cops have such an affirmative duty). I wonder if new recruits are being told this or not.

Don't celebrate violence.
Agreed. The stabbing was not society's justice but a simple act of violence.
