George Floyd died of fentanyl overdose, not by asphyxiation due to neck compression for several minutes. Look at the coroner's report FFS! This is yet another example of white male persecution in America - look at the contradiction/lie in bolded by this self-loathing judge. It makes my stomach churn in disgust to see white people mourn for this ni.. THUG. Shouldn't we all celebrate?

MINNEAPOLIS — Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted of murder in the death of George Floyd, was sentenced Friday to 22 and a half years in prison, closing a chapter on a case that sparked global outrage and protests.
He was granted credit for time served.
Prosecutors had asked that Chauvin receive 30 years in prison. His lawyer sought probation.
Hennepin County District Judge Peter Cahill said his sentence was not based on public opinion, "emotion or sympathy." He said he was not trying "send any messages."
"But at the same time I want to acknowledge the deep and tremendous pain that all the families are feeling, especially the Floyd family," Cahill said.
Hours before the hearing began, Cahill denied a request from Chauvin’s attorney for a new trial. Cahill also denied a request to hold a hearing on juror misconduct.
I simply didn't see evidence for murder.. at all.
Maybe manslaughter
He deserves to be in jail but don't think the charge he got was accurate based on the evidence
