Default Memorial Fund For George Floyd

Who ever said “Crime Doesn’t Pay? Check on this link by going to the GoFundMe website. It is true! Fundraiser by Philonise Floyd : Official George Floyd Memorial Fund

The family (brothers and sister) of George Floyd opened a Go Fund Me account to "help the family"? It has already raised $14,432,000 and still counting from donations as of June 20, 2020. Yes, over $14 MILLION.

This is for a guy who was arrested nine times; was a convicted drug dealer ; held a gun to the stomach of a pregnant lady while his five buddies robbed her home; did prison time three different times totaling about eight years, and obviously didn't learn from our penal system. And America is memorializing him by painting murals of the guy on the sides of buildings like he's a hero? Unbelievable!! You gotta be kidding me.

I would bet that not one cent will go to helping those in need within the community.

Crime does pay…..and well!!!!!

Man worth a lot more dead than alive. Wonder if any charitable donations are in the family's future?

The real heroes are the police officers in jail for doing their job. Hope they sue the Floyd Fund when they are acquitted at trial.

None of it is going to the community. It is going to the family with a portion of it going to his children.

What ignorant people are donating to this criminals family? He never supported them when he was alive. He was a thug, but I do agree that the police where too harsh and should be punished. If you do not resist you don't usually get hurt. This whole drama is to destroy America. Wake up people!

Wonder if any of the people who contributed now realize how much the family got and would ask for their money back

Mr. Floyd was definitely no angel. However, that does not excuse the police officers (particularly Derek Chauvin) from apparently deciding that they would be judge, jury and executioner for Mr. Floyd. He was trying to pass a phony twenty dollar bill when the police came after him. A crime? Yes. An instant death sentence? No.

Very true but just think if he was a law abiding citizen he would still be alive.

If guilty the police officers involved should go to prison but he is not exactly a model citizen
