Guilty of all charges - good.

So now with 3 charges which together/run concurrently carry a maximum of 80 years and sentencing in 8 weeks time, the only possible verdict given the evidence against him but it’s merely the start as to what needs to be done to correct for the failings of the current police system in the states, how this is resolved will rumble on for years and years to come given the powers that the police unions hold.

Hopefully a watershed moment heralding humane policing and better race relations.

Was he panicked, was he fearful? I don not know. Is he a racist? I do not know. Is he just hugely gung-ho? I do not know. Does he give a sh1t about anyone else in this world? I do not know.

I do not know and NOTHING anywhere, except being in the actual courtroom, would let me judge all of that.

I wish that everyone in this world did not jump to wild conclusions based on diddley-squat apart from tabloid headlines and internet babble.
You seem to be desperate to find an excuse for the policeman.
