    Default Mohamed Noor's murder verdict reversed

    Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor's murder verdict reversed over Justine Damond Ruszczyk's death

    I agree. I think the verdict was too strenuous. If it turns out so, he could be out for time served.

    It was after 11 on a sweltering evening when Justine heard what she thought sounded like a sexual assault in the laneway behind her house.
    Worried, she phoned Don in Las Vegas. The couple agreed Justine should call 911.
    "I'm not sure if she's having sex or being raped," she told the 911 operator, "But I don't think she's enjoying it."
    The noises continued and when there was no sign of a police car by 11:35pm, she called again.


    When the squad car arrived and drove down the laneway, she took the fateful decision to leave the house and approach the officers inside the car.
    "I can only suppose that she came out of the house and realising that the police car had gone past the site of the incident, that she walked up to the police car," John said.
    "And for some unknown reason, a man shot and killed her."
    For Don Damond, waiting to hear back from her in a Las Vegas hotel room, the news when it arrived was incomprehensible.

    Wait .. a black cop murders an unarmed white woman and it's OK?

    But not if a white cop kills a black, career criminal?

    What makes them different Jake?

    Talk to the jury, sassy.

    You do agree that Noor should have been convicted, do you not?

    Answering a question with a question Jake?

    You answer mine and then I'll answer yours. But you're not really interested in my view, are you.

    I answered. Talk to the jury. I agree that the crime was not murder.

    Justified execution? Of a good Samaritan?

    The jury said it was murder and locked him up. It was overturned by a group of political appointees called a "court".

    The woman is dead. Shot dead by a police officer. There is no reason whatsoever that she should be shot dead by a police officer. None.

    The issue I see here is what they are calling "murder". At a minimum, this would be negligent homicide, among other charges, here. I've seen this issue come up before with laws that don't fit the crime, so the crime gets thrown out, not the law.

    Unsat.
