Former Minneapolis police officers Tou Thao, J. Alexander Kueng and Thomas Lane were found guilty of violating George Floyd's civil rights by a federal jury in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Thursday.
The 12 jurors -- four men and eight women -- found Lane, Kueng and Thao guilty of depriving Floyd of his civil rights by showing deliberate indifference to his medical needs as former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin knelt on Floyd for more than 9 minutes on May 25, 2020 -- ultimately killing him.

That can't be correct, KMC's Trumper squad insisted that wasn't the case, even posting Youtube detective work as proof that Floyd couldn't have died from having his neck crushed:
A former Minneapolis police officer pleaded guilty Wednesday to a state charge of aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter in the killing of George Floyd.
As part of the plea deal, Thomas Lane will have a count of aiding and abetting second-degree unintentional murder dismissed. Lane, along with J. Alexander Kueng and Tou Thao, has already been convicted on federal counts of willfully violating Floyd’s rights during the May 2020 restraint that led to the Black man’s death. -snip
Seems one of them is finally taking some responsibility for their part in George Floyd's murder. Sure, it's part of a plea deal.
Jury selection for the third and likely final trial over the death of George Floyd was canceled Monday after one of the defendants pleaded guilty and another waived his right to a jury trial. -snip
Once these two are sentenced, this should wrap up the legal preceding regarding George Floyd;s murder.
Nutty to think we had people in here defending these cops just because Floyd "was no saint". Doesn't matter, cops are not supposed to be judge, jury and executioners. Their job was to arrest Floyd for his $20.00 counterfeit bill and process him.
yeah voltron brought their phaggoty a-game to this thread.

I'm just imagining what I would have done had I been there.
I'd like to think I'd try and stop it... but in the moment, surrounded by fellow officers who acted like everything was normal, well...
They had all kinds of experiments that show how people are influenced, like the Milgram experiments. You know, the one where normal people delivered high electrical shocks to an unseen (fake) patient because a doctor insisted everything was fine.
