Derek Chauvin Sentenced To 22.5 Years For Floyd Killing

[ZERO] Update (1500ET): Judge Cahill handed down a sentence of 270 months - 22.5 years - to Chauvin, with a credit for 199 days of time already served.

Credit for time served? Golly.

The sentence is greater by 10 years than the 150-month (12.5 years) "recommended" sentence (represented by the average sentence for a second-degree murder conviction, the most senior of Chauvin's charges).

Before handing down the sentence the judge delivered a brief statement, insisting that his decision wasn't based on public opinion, the sentence is not based on emotion or sympathy, but at the same time, I want to acknowledge the deep and tremendous pain that all the families are feeling especially the Floyd family...I acknowledge the pain not only of those in this court room but Floyd family members outside this courtroom...most importantly we need to recognize the pain if the Floyd family."

The sentence, the judge said, is based on "your abuse of position and cruelty to George Floyd." Prosecutors had asked the judge to hand down a 30 year sentence.

In addition to the order, the judge released a 22-page sentencing memorandum, which will be released shortly.

Assuming he maintains a record of good behavior, Chauvin can be out in 15 years, serving the rest of his sentence on probation. To be sure, he is also now the focus of a federal investigation that seems intended solely to ensure that he will never be a free man again.

#1 I want to acknowledge the deep and tremendous pain that all the families are feeling especially the Floyd family

What fcuking families? Floyd family? They're richer than they could ever be with him gone, and he's practically the new MLK for America! Motherf... bastard traitorous son of a whore in a robe.

The sentence is greater by 10 years than the 150-month (12.5 years) "recommended" sentence

Motherfcukers. Filthy, SOB, #%@ksucking motherfcukers. Swine in suits and robes. May they never see their own families happy again, the sons of whores. May their beloved Floyds and DeShawns reach into their secure lives and fcuk their smug happiness somehow.

#2 Face it: the only thing that MIGHT have satisfied the BLM mob would be the death penalty, preferably the most painful, drawn out death possible.
Maybe even two or three death penalties.

#3 Nah - nothing would satisfy the mob. They, and their media masters, are already looking for the next outrage.

#6 insisting that his decision wasn't based on public opinion, the sentence is not based on emotion or sympathy

Somehow, the fact judge has taken unusual pains to reassure us that everything is on the up-and-up only serves to make me suspicious that it is not. That, plus the facts of the case...

Chauvin had to be sacrificed to the mob, lest our Blue cites burn. (You say that like it is a bad thing!)
I think the play is:
Chauvin goes to jail for a few years while the appeal paper-shuffling takes place and things can calm down. Assuming he survives prison, the case eventually gets tossed on appeal due to the prosecution's egregious conduct.

If he does not survive then it all becomes moot. Also, Chauvin Didn't Kill Himself becomes a meme.

#7 This was none of the good Lord's pleasure,
For the Spirit He breathed in Man is free;
But what comes after is measure for measure,
And not a God that afflicteth thee.
As was the sowing so the reaping
Is now and evermore shall be.
Thou art delivered to thine own keeping.
Only Thyself hath afflicted thee!
