Why Derek Chauvin Deserves A New Trial (And Will Win It)

"In 2024, there would be a chance that a jury would see through all of this corruption, and vote to acquit Derek Chauvin."

Matt Walsh

With the acquittal of Daniel Penny in Manhattan, it’s clear that Democrats are going to have some difficulty rounding up political prisoners for the next few years. As that trial demonstrated, they can’t even sell a BLM narrative to a jury full of liberal women (and a guy wearing a COVID mask). People are more skeptical of race hysteria now, across party lines. They understand when they’re being manipulated. They care more about facts, instead of whatever the corporate press is saying. And that’s all very bad news for Democrat prosecutors who are looking to collect a scalp.

But this development is obviously small comfort to the many victims of these prosecutors who are still languishing away in prison, after being convicted in show trials to appease the mob. And of course, maybe the single most prominent of those victims is a man named Derek Chauvin. Chauvin was a police officer in Minneapolis who went to work in May of 2020 with the goal of protecting his community from violent felons — people like George Floyd. He’s been sentenced to more than two decades in prison because Floyd, who had a recent history of overdoses, died in his custody while high on fatal levels of fentanyl.
