"Derek Chauvin found guilty in the death of George Floyd"- how long will he be in prison?Bennn
- life probably_niko
- Two murder charges and manslaughter. There's no way out of life that I'm aware of.monospaced
- "The maximum sentence for second-degree unintentional murder is imprisonment of not more than 40 years."grafician
- Justice was served, but police brutality will carry on, even more so, most likelygrafician
- I know you're from Romania, so I'll give you time to read the Wiki and news so you can catch up.monospaced
- And you're clearly missing the precedent this sets for the future. Perhaps you'll read about that too and repost it here.monospaced
- What wiki, this was straight from CNN https://edition.cnn.…grafician
- Two murder charges and manslaughter. There's no way out of life that I'm aware of.monospaced
- Ah I believe we both posted at the same time, I was replying to Bennn with my quote, not yougrafician
- But from what I'm reading, this was just the verdict, still need for the judge to read the sentencing? plus appeals?grafician
- Yes, you would know that if you were a US citizen. You can read the Wiki. Usually three felonies are enough for a 3-strikes rule to apply.monospaced
- I'm hoping he gets the high end of each charge at least, maybe 20-30 years ideally.monospaced
- What wiki mono, all this is on twitter man
anywaygrafician - Appeals will start shortlyGnash
- Wiki. Twitter. News. You’re learning on the fly in real time. I understand it’s not the same in your country, so you have to look it up to post here.monospaced
- mono lol yeah we have no clue here how the justice system works, we barely use it, but the sentences are merged and the defendant serves the longest onegrafician
- so in this case, he would do 40 to lifegrafician

Yup he will serve the longest one. According to YT lawyer.pango - tldr key is "multiple charges from the same act". he will serve the longest one out of all the charges.pango

- Prince Philip, Queen EII's gravel-voiced husband star who battled royal laws and rum addiction, dies at 99.shapesalad
- Where did you find this comparison?
I can't believe that you actually read.utopian - I don't get it.TOMMYxGUNN
- ^ "battled law and addiction" was their first headline. People called them out because it seems critical and no way to honor someone.omahadesigns
- Gotcha. The images should be the other way round in that case, hence my confusion.TOMMYxGUNN
- Yes, flip the DMX onesomahadesigns

watched "Judas and the Black Messiah" this morning, can't help but wonder how the Breonna Taylor murder affected the way they shot the riot / Hampton murder.

The protests that have swept the US since the killing of George Floyd in May 2020 have themselves been met with further violence.Evidence of that violence exists in thousands of videos shared online. Forensic Architecture and Bellingcat have geolocated, verified, and analysed that evidence to create this archive.
