Dirty former cop wants a new trial after a juror wore a Black Lives Matter shirt in a social media posting.

BAD COPS WILL GET GOOD COPS KILLED!

A juror wore a Black Lives Matter t-shirt. Cue white nationalists outrage. 

That juror's social media postings and t-shirt have become a controversy. The defense for the former Minneapolis cop who was convicted of killing George Floyd is calling for a new trial.

The former cop is on suicide watch. He is not with general population at an iron college outside of Minneapolis-St. Paul. He awaits his serving. 

The far-right has already zeroed in on this guy. The juror's few posts on social media are now catnip for white nationalists to exploit.

The juror is now getting death threats and far-right agitators are calling for him to be jailed for not being honest on his juror questionnaire. 

The defense claims that juror misconduct by Brandon Mitchell made the trial impartial and they believe that the state of Minnesota court system should honor a new trial.

The far-right upset that former juror posted his thoughts on Black Lives Matter.

In the filing, the former cop's attorney demands that a new trial should be held in the "interest of justice; abuse of discretion that deprived the Defendant of a fair trial; prosecutorial and jury misconduct; errors of law at trail; and a verdict that is contrary to law."

"The jury committed to misconduct, felt threatened or intimidated, felt race-based pressure during the proceedings, and/or failed to adhere to instructions during deliberations, in violations of [the Defendant's] constitutional rights to due process and a fair trial," attorney Eric Nelson writes in the filing.

The motion comes as a photo circulating on social media shows juror Mitchell wearing a Black Lives Matter hat and a shirt with a picture of Martin Luther King, Jr. that says, "get your knee off our necks."

Mitchell defended his photo on social media. He went to the August 28, 2020 event sponsored by Rev. Al Sharpton and the National Action Network. It was commemorating the anniversary of King's "I Have a Dream" speech on the grounds of the Lincoln Memorial.

It was the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. It was held on August 28, 1963.

"I think I was being extremely honest" during the jury selection process," Mitchell said. "I gave my views on everything -- on the case, on Black Lives Matter."

Nelson claims that the court failed to sequester the jury during the trial, which resulted in their exposure "to prejudicial publicity regarding the trial during the proceedings, as well as jury intimidation and potential fear of retribution among jurors."

The Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said the former cop's attempts for a new trial will only result in more charges handed towards him. His spokesman and deputy chief of staff, John Stiles said that, "The court has already rejected many of these arguments and the State will vigorously oppose them."

The former cop could face up to 40 years in the iron college. However, the court could impose less time since he has no criminal history. Nonetheless, he will no longer be allowed to be a police officer. 

Also, the three other cops who didn't stop the dirty cop from putting his goddamn knee on Floyd's neck are going to trial in the coming months. I expect the Floyd family to be in the courtroom and hoping these dirty cops get convicted as well.

I'm not the one on trial. I have no criminal history nor I am the one who murdered George Floyd.

The incident happened one year ago. Floyd was accused of passing a fake $20 bill and the Cupp Foods staffers called the law. The law dragged Floyd out the vehicle and restrained him. After they took him out the vehicle, that dirty cop would end up handcuffing him and placing his goddamn knee on his neck. Floyd was saying he can't breathe and calling for his mama. That cop did not render aid and did not take his knee off the neck. Floyd was unconscious. The medics couldn't revive him and he died in front of a dozen people. A 17-year old teenager filmed the horrific incident and it went viral.

It sparked massive protests. The calls for systematic reform to gun violence and policing were ignored by Washed Up 45, Republicans and far-right agitators. It cost the Republicans the White House and Congress.

Now tasked with thousands of issues, President Joe Biden is demanding Congress pass the George Floyd Police Reform Act by end of the month. The House has passed their version. The Senate is stalling because of the white nationalists in the Republican Party and those two in the Democratic Party's refusal to change the status quo.

Pressure is on white nationalist senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin. The Democrat senators from Arizona and West Virginia are facing massive heat for not backing the Democrats on passing Biden's agenda.
