‘He’s not getting out’: Calls for Trump to pardon Derek Chauvin slammed by state AG who says former cop ‘still owes Minnesota 22 1/2 years’

It wasn't in the manual.

You yourself cited the police training manual and posted an image of the restraint from it, and now are claiming it wasn't in the manual.

Non sequitur. Your facts are uncoordinated.

Actually it is something that most people would consider Common Sense.

If you break a window on a car you have just committed a crime. You have destroyed private property. That is illegal. But you say there was a dog in the car obviously in distress from heat and justify your actions. Common Sense.

Context is vital to properly judging a situation.

There was no 'judging of the situation' going on, at least purposefully so on my part.

The question was whether the restraint hold, which was alleged to be illegal and banned, was so, and its been clearly demonstrated and documented that it was neither.
The end.

On my!
The left leaning posters here sure get angry and upset when they are presented with the facts, and those facts don't align with their issued talking points they parrot.

Once again, it was the restraint hold which was in the training manual, was legal, and was an approved practice.
Not the excessive length the restraint hold was applied.

You lefties just keep banging on and on about off point. Its embarrassing for you, whether you realize it or not.

No, the maneuver administered by Chauvin was not in the training manual. That was evident by testimony in his trial.

Who knows why you think you know better than the experts?

How many back and forths could have been avoided had you cited this earlier.

Pro Tip: A link is always helpful:

Police training boss says Derek Chauvin used an ‘improvised’ neck hold

Officers are trained in neck restraints, but not to kneel on someone’s neck, the former training commander said

Although, rather odd that its from a single source. You'd think that this would have been covered more.

Who knows why you think you know better than the experts?

I do not pretend to do so. I admit as to not being aware of that single report.

Was he convicted by the state or federally?

Both. Chauvin took a plea deal in his civil rights violation case that stuck him in federal prison, which is much nicer than state prison. All a Trump pardon would do is send him back to Minnesota.

It was illegal in how and when it was used. In training they covered it. They told Chauvin and the rest of the class how to do it properly. He didn’t. They told him when it would be appropriate. He didn’t do that either. They warned him about the dangers of Positional Asphyxiation and he ignored those warnings.

It was in the book. And it was trained. But those warnings and conditions were also there. Focusing on the two words doesn’t tell the truth.

This is why everyone, including Chauvin’s own expert, said he did it wrong.
