Judge refuses to release to public video exonerating police officers in Floyd arrest.

The footage shows Floyd “actively resisting and acting erratic," Gray said, adding that releasing pieces of the video has resulted in incomplete news reports and benefits prosecutors.

Wow imagine if what the news media showed to us was actually not accurate.

Could you post a link where it says "Judge refuses to release to public video "exonerating" police officers in Floyd arrest."
Nothing I'm reading states that. From what I'm reading the new body cam footage is not very "explosive" at all. And whatever it shows it should be left up to the jury to see and decide, it would serve no purpose one way or another at this time to make it public

It would serve to taint the jury pool

So, release some videos of the incident, but not all of them? I think all videos should have been released as soon as they were available. This is not a "new" video, as stated in the OP.

I fear that this thread has been started from rumor and not fact.

Where is the link that says, according to the OP, from the judge, the video would "exonerate" the officers?
That I have a problem with.

So do I.

Floyd and the cop who killed him had a prior relationship. Is that being investigated or swept under the rug?

What is wrong with you people!! You believe “evidence” that has not been seen over what we all have seen. If someone was kneeling on my neck, I’d be ‘actively resisting and acting erratic’ to get out from under my attacker’s grip. There are right and wrong ways to hold a suspect and not one includes kneeling on their neck and throat.

remember ed koch said there is no hiding from the court of public opinion,,, don't you ?

what do you think has already happened ? seat a fair & impartial jury ? does anyone really think that's possible now ? we're all been tainted by reading & discussing

idiotic ruling by judge if true

[UseYourBrain]

I don’t care how much he was resisting you don’t kneel on someone’s neck for almost 9 minutes when they are handcuffed and on the ground face down. The officer had his hands in his pockets further demonstrating he did not think things were out of control. He also had many people telling him he was being inhumane while being videoed and the man was telling him he couldn’t breathe.

The Hill is reporting an explosive new video, but the explosive new video is a video claiming that there is an explosive new video, they don’t actually show it.

Given what this triggered, I am fine with leaving this with the local stakeholders to sort out.

The police had Floyd controlled and murdered him. Whatever he did prior doesn’t matter at that point. The cop with his knee on Floyd’s neck is guilty period.

And to all the media conspiracy theorists, how can the media report a story the judge hasn’t released? It is strange how many people will believe BS and deny the truth from reliable sources. This entire story may be false, I haven’t heard it anywhere else.
