Denied bail - typically means for most cases that the sentencing will be fairly severe.

Unless the build a gallows and hang him from it it will never be enough time for them. They are not gonna give up the chance of getting free shit.

Dunno. I don't hate all cops, nor do I think Floyd was a good person. Floyd's death was the result of poor cop training and negligence. He was cuffed and face down with multiple officers around him. He was a threat to no one at that point and all they had to do was stick him in the back of the cruiser. Chauvin going to prison for this is about sending a message to cops that they need to learn their boundaries and to stop escalating shit - for fucks sakes, US cops get less training than it takes to become a fucking cosmetologist!

Ego and poor training failed those cops, which subsequently failed Floyd as well.

They tried that, he jumped out and said "I wanna lie on the ground."

Zero justice here.

Yes there is. Chauvin is an incompetent cop and deserves to see prison time. I don't hate cops nor do I think Floyd was a good person, but his death was unnecessary and it's a result of an incompetent cop having abysmal training, which unfortunately is a widespread issue in the US police force.
