The maximum punishment the man is getting for 3rd degree murder in that state is 25 years and nothing more.

Arrest-good.
Charge-very good.
Prosecute, convict & sentence to death-excellent.

he's been fired already...as in sacked. The next step was arresting him, which they've done, followed by placing a charge on him. He will be tried soon and I doubt if he would escape justice. That's daylight murder. How can somebody already handcuffed been killed like an animal when he didn't even threaten the life of the officer, neither was he armed to justify the killing in self defence, just like that?

It reminds me of a black guy killed in a similar manner in Baton Rouge a few years back. Thank God some brave bystanders filmed the wicked police officer which was enough evidence. We are following the case closely. Unfortunately for him, he's not being charged in Nigeria where judicial system is ailing.

While the one that masterminded the killing of the mechanic Chima of IKOKU 5 was transferred for further shielding.

Hope the new CP and SG will holistically look into the cases and justice done as required.

No one was killed in India, stop spreading fake news, In that video we just see brawl and mistreatment.
Quote A single Statement of Nigerian Embassy in India that a man was killed, there is no such report.
Or Put a source from any International Newspaper of such incident,
what i see is the someone posted a video on nairaland or may be on some cheap blog page. I have checked Nigerian Embessy`s tweets and there is no confirmation of such thing. If you have let us know.

Quote a source, These days i dont believe anything posted here and there, too much fake things. I am asking from everyone and Irony is that No one has any source of such news yet everyone is going wahala

JOHNSONSOLAFUNMI:
A great news, but they still have a long way to go, before y’all scream racism, the police officer and late George were coworkers

Don’t let the media deceive you cause we are in an election year, the police officer had been reported 12 times and nothing was done under the governors and mayors, Amy klobucher, a prospective vp nominee of the Democratic Party had the chance to bring this man to book but she didn’t, but now screams racism than the bereaved George family, turning the 2 races towards each other, is their goal, their objective has been achieved, which is a police state in Minneapolis, people targeting cops and burning 3 police stations, but couldn’t stop the cop when he choked the late George to death, never knew people will rather get cheap likes and views than save a fellow human, looting of target and Walmart store, and what? And not achieving our aim to stop racism and police brutality, cause this has been hijacked by scrupulous elements, I pray he gets served and sentenced according to law, if the media calls this police brutality, It’s still acceptable but referring to this as racism is utter rubbish, cause one of the 4 police officers that held him down was an Asian

Funny how black celebrities encourage violence against police and private individuals, but won’t get involve in it... grin

Look beyond the lines, be factual instead of being emotional, an igbo man was killed in India 2 days ago, I didn’t see any outrage from any nigerians but will masturbate over Americans issue

I smell hypocrisy or only black American lives matters

If you mention my moniker by calling me unfounded names, I’ll curse you vigorously in my dialect, I mean it, you’re warned!

he was charged with 3rd degree murder and man slaughter. That is a very small charge and can't even come with any thing strong. Try and read details, nothing like death sentence here. It was not a first degree or second degree murder charge

Of course.

Initially, they said he even resisted arrest which was untrue;


Then, they said he died as a result of underlying medical issues. That the only damage done to him during the arrest was "trauma" to the mouth.

However, his medical report showed he died of asphyxiation (death due to lack of oxygen).

The FBI made it a top priority.
Footage from the officers' body cameras was turned over to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.

These guys must face the law.


the guy was charged with 3rd degree murder and man slaughter, that is already a lesser charge and won't come with strong jail term. The prosecutors avoided 1st/2nd degree murder charge because they can't prove it and will be very hard to prove. The case honestly is already weak and trump didn't do anything extraordinary. Everything acted the way it should and FBI is automatically going to be on it. What Trump said is all what every US president will say...but from past experience and with the lesser murder charge the policeman won't have a strong jail term and the others might only be charged with manslaughter

whether you like it or not this is the true definition of the world power countries.

THEY ARE ALL MASSIVE RACISTS... from China to Russia and USA and the UK.

there was no point holding the deceased down... ok fine you held him down, cuffed him and made him seat.... why was he held down so long, waiting for what backup?
already it was 4 policemen against 1 so why wasn't he cuffed and taken away or better still cuffed and made to wait for backup.

why choke him?

anyway like every other racist incident... this one will be forgotten so soon.

RIP to the dead.

Just saw it on CNN.

Yes, this is the main message passed. Well said, Obama.


His death has been compared to the death of one, Eric Garner, another black man who died by strangulation in 2014, at the hands of NYPD officers.

I hope justice would be served.

I also hope that it wasn't the protests and anarchy that pushed the authorities to make him face the law.
of cos it was. be like sey u nor know these American police people .They know how to protect their own when they commit a serious crime against the black community..They are easily forgiven and a cover up will be put in place to make it go away .But if the crime is against another white person then they are persecuted .

come on. You're the fifth person writing this. Surely you should expect that there will be many hail-mary attempts to spin this story. Media was awash with reports that he was resisting arrest, not until cctv footage from another angle showed that to be false. Initially, they said it was just one police officer who was waiting for backup, as the reason why he did the choke hold, not until pictures from a bystander surfaced showing there were three other officers purposely hiding beside the car and holding him down. Recent footage has shown that a police officer Jacob Pederson actually potentiated the looting spree (the atmosphere was tense so he dangled the carrot that set things off). Why in the hell would you still believe these wishy-washy reports? There will still be many more as you will see, and if we are propagating that, you would only be helping their sick agenda. They would work together for 17years and he would do that??
