Many people saw how the black man pleaded and eventually died of choking being in that miserable situation under the Minneapolis ex-officer Derek Chauvin. What was even heart-breaking for many people is that despite the man has already lost his consciousness under him, the cop remained his stance with his knees in between Floyd’s neck.

The police officer lost his job and what happened has ignited protest across the USA. And now, in a report from CNN, people’s anger just got heightened up after it has been reported that ex-Minneapolis has a bail at $500,000.

…WE DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO WE SHOULD TRUST ANYMORE.

He knew what he was doing. THIS WAS INTENTIONAL

choking him for eight minutes while he was saying he couldn’t breathe was not an accident.
