The next thing you will hear from Florida is the former cop who kills a man, under "Stand your ground" for making a face at him.

Of when nazis gave out orders to kill as many people as possible and do it fast during that genocide by bullets part of the holocaust.
Nazi troops became judge jury and executioners,and millions of innocents died at thier evil hands.

8 years ago. If they do find him guilty they will give him
a suspended sentence since he is old.

I had lost track of the case and I think I assumed the shooter cop was dead by now.

Shocked this is still an active case, and he's above ground and not jailed.

It disturbed this ex-police captain, and the situation escalated from there.

Asshole should have been put on trial years ago, but his defense lawyer managed to keep pushing the trial date off for a variety of dubious reasons.

One of the holdups was because of covid, supposedly, and another hang up was because they had a hearing to just have it dismissed under the stand your ground law, but the judge said no. I also remember when he wanted more freedom than to just go to the store and church into his attorney's office and wanted to be able to at least walk around the neighborhood with his grandchildren and during the trial, it seems like they said he only had one grandchild.

Still waiting to see if he will testify because all of the defense witnesses have mainly been just side noise, a distraction.

His wife got caught in a couple of lies when she testified and I really wish the prosecuting attorneys would have gotten on her to make it more clear, but the experts feel the right thing was done because they didn't want to appear to be bullying his wife. Sad after the way the defense bullied Nicole Oulson.

His daughter is pretty and blonde and blue-eyed and white and all that is supposedly right with the world, but she is a chip off the old block. His defense is now basing around being old when he did it and feeling vulnerable and that his health was failing. In one breath she would talk about how he couldn't even get down on the floor and play with his grandchildren anymore and in the next breath she talked about how they had met up in Tennessee for vacation and he had driven him and his wife up there. Just before the shooting he had also driven to Ohio and back. Just because of the fact that he had to start riding a bicycle instead of going running at the age of 71 didn't seem like too much of a hardship.

I didn't get to see much of his son's testimony, but he and his dad had just recently gotten back from a hunting trip. Apparently he came in right around the time of the shooting and supposedly tried to render aid to Chad and he made the comment that he ordered the man who was going to assist him in what to do. That shows his mindset. And he is the one who was supposed to be in charge of the guns when Curtis Reeves went to court earlier to have his guns released and if they didn't feel they could give them back to him, they should just give them to his son? His son is also a police officer, but was off-duty and out of uniform so ordering people around is apparently the way their family rolls.

If this turns out to be a Kyle Rittenhouse verdict and he is set free, I will have lost all faith in our judicial system. At least Georgia got it right in their recent situation.

I started trying to follow it a bit, but I hope to catch when the prosecutor gets to do his questioning. Just read an article from my local TV channel and as usual, they have omitted parts of the very topic they were talking about. They published that Mrs Reeves had asked him to move and that was confusing because he had said he wishes he would have moved like his wife said and evidently either during her initial questioning or during the hearing to have it dropped on the stand your ground rule, she also said that she asked him to move, but on the witness stand, she said she didn't say anything to him. When the prosecutor asked for why, she said it was because her husband had already contacted their son and told him where they were sitting, she thinks.
Something else that has been bothering me is the fact that when they asked her about her son, she said he had blood all over his hands and she made a negative face. I would have asked her where the blood came from and whose blood it was and how it got there. But I digress. I don't have anything near a law degree.
