George Floyd Transcript is a THOUSAND Times Worse than You Can Believe

[Stallion]

on the Last Word now-makes me want to throw-up

Cold Blooded MURDER

[CatWoman]

1. that was disturbingly deep

[writes3000]

2. I'm literally sick to my stomach. Numb from horror.

[malaise]

3. I cried

Fucking evil killers

[jrthin]

4. I had to stop listening in the beginning. My heart hurt.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. That was bad. Very disturbing.

That's not something the defendants will want a jury to hear - I foresee guilty pleas.

[Leghorn21]

6. Yes

It was fucking endless, it never stopped jfc

[bamagal62]

7. I had to mute it.

I couldn’t listen any longer. It was too upsetting.

[tulipsandroses]

8. I am glad I didn't hear all of it, I caught Lawrence choking up at the end

before he cut to the break. I knew it had to be bad.

[Progressive Law]

9. In the transcript available in text form? I don't get MSNBC.

[Earth Bound Misfit]

19. NYT posted a link.

10. Wait Till that is Played in the Courtroom

that is so powerful and heart wrenching, these bastards need to spend the rest of their lives behind bars.

If they walk, Milwaukee will need some major repairs I am afraid.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. I bet it won't; I bet there will be plea bargains.

And it's Minneapolis, not Milwaukee - I live here so I hope we don't need even more repairs. But I'd be surprised if there are trials at all in light of that evidence.

[Dan]

14. Yes, I listened to Lawrence read the transcript

and if I was the lawyer for any of those cops, I would take a deal.

One of them will never have a free day for the rest of his natural life.

And if, by some chance, the main offender is set free - I would move the hell out of Minneapolis?

[Miguelito Loveless]

18. It will never see a courtroom.

These people keep piling on the money until it goes away.

[bullwinkle428]

11. What kind of sick animal do you have to be to torture someone to death who literally

could not be more gracious or polite as they're begging for their life?

[tulipsandroses]

13. I said in another thread, I was going to call them animals, but on second thought

I've watched enough discovery animal videos to see animals protect not only their own species, but protect other species. I don't know what these things walking on legs are.

[Olafjoy]

15. I know I won't be able to handle it.

Ari read just a little and it was horrible.

[oswaldactedalone]

16. Deeply disturbing

Heartless. Evil times Evil.

[Hoyt]

17. Yes it is. It should be damning. I do think defense will make some use

of fact George Floyd wouldn’t get in car. Hopefully, the jurors won’t be swayed by that, but they will have to consider it.

It darn sure doesn’t explain Chauvin pinning neck for almost 9 minutes, and that crazed look.

[smirkymonkey]

23. Oh god, that made me feel physically ill.

That poor man. How heartbreaking. Those rotten bastard cops should never see the outside of a jail cell for as long as they live. I hope they die in prison. Justice needs to be served!

[PatSeg]

21. I knew Chauvin was responsible

for George Floyd's death, but now I know with certainty that it was intentional. He did not appear to just be trying to hurt him, he obviously was trying to kill him. Lawrence's reading of the transcript was absolutely chilling. That was cold blooded murder.

[bigtree]

22. video

[Dem2theMax]

27. George Floyd was pleading for his life. He knew what was going to happen.

Those four bastard cops need to rot in hell.




For George.

[Alex4Martinez]

24. . . . . Tell my kids I love them . I'm dead . . . .

[dalton99a]

26. He knew that he was being executed

[dalton99a]

25. A must read.

[orleans]

28. no no no

i can't read it, can't listen to it

i'm glad there is a transcript so there is no doubt as to what was being said

i've read these posts--i'm glad it provides more clarity

but i just can't witness any more than i've already seen on tv--i have to close my eyes when the news shows clips of this man being murdered

i feel as if i have, just by viewing the news clips, intruded on this man's death -- me -- this stranger.

i'm just a little weird i guess.
(truth be told, i never saw schindler's list either--but i did (accidentally) see a booklet filled with photos from the concentration camps that our government compiled. my dad developed some of the film/pictures. i was 7 or 8 years old. i saw enough.)

[catchnrelease]

29. I remember the video

I saw it early on and I can't forget how the people around, being kept back were getting more and more frantic. The female firefighter was really irate at the cops. She kept trying to get them to check Floyd's vitals, but they ignored her. Like you were watching a film, you couldn't believe that the cops wouldn't listen. And Chauvin just kept kneeling there like he was waiting for a bus--not the least bit stressed, upset, nothing. The whole thing was surreal.

One thing that always gets me in these situations is that when the person says they can't breathe, the cops say 'oh you can talk you can breathe'. If they are on the person's artery, the blood is shut off to the brain and the lungs are not going to function properly, besides you are going to black out from oxygen deprivation to the brain. Unless I'm not understanding it correctly, being able to talk really isn't relevant in that case. I don't think they care really, just going to keep the person down no matter what.
