This is about the bulbhead who got accepted into Minneapolis PD to boost their muh diversity stats, who "got startled" by an unarmed, unthreatening woman and proceeded to ventilate her. He originally got a third degree murder charge and 12.5 years for it. Now, the verdict has been overturned, because apparently, turning a random woman into a colander is just manslaughter.
Compare and contrast this with Derek Chauvin, who was restraining a violent career criminal overdosing on enough drugs to kill an elephant while waiting for an ambulance. The junkie died of a heart attack, and somehow, Chauvin got 22.5 years for two murders and a manslaughter, IIRC. Twice as long as what Noor got.
Shooting a white person as a nigger cop is fine in Minneapolis. Having a nigger who should have been dead long ago overdose while in your custody means you deserve to rot in prison forever.
Embarrassed MNer here.
To add on Artemis's explanation, Noor shot from across his partner at Damond while in the car. She was trying to get their attention by tapping or knocking on the car.
This raises further interest back to St. George's case because apparently the precedent set by Noor's case was used to charge and convict Chauvin with 3rd degree murder.
I'll look to see the specific language the state court used with overturning Noor's conviction.
Here's the pdf of the court opinion.
It looks like it boiled down to citing past court cases since the law itself is pretty vague. Noor's team argued and the court agreed that purposeful action toward one person does not constitute a depraved mind.
In sum, our precedent confirms that Noor is correct in arguing that a person does not commit depraved-mind murder when the person’s actions are directed at a particular
victim. The particular-person exclusion is simply another way of saying that the mental
state for depraved-mind murder is one of general malice.
See Coleman, 957 N.W.2d at.
78–79 (citing Weltz, 193 N.W. at 42–43); Lowe, 68 N.W. at 1095; Darry, 10 N.Y. at 156
(Denio, J.). Under our precedent, general malice refers to conduct evincing indifference to
human life in general and, as we recently said in Coleman, does not refer to indifference
“directed at the person slain.” 957 N.W.2d at 78–79.
We reaffirm our precedent today and confirm that the mental state required for
depraved-mind murder cannot exist when the defendant’s actions are directed with
particularity at the person who is killed.
Evidently all of this confirmed a higher level charge (second degree felony murder), but the prosecution did not pursue that. They went for second degree intentional murder, but the jury decided not guilty for that.
What the hell is wrong with the judicial system that they just said, "Meh, I guess we'll let this guy off on a technicality."
I hate to say it, but there's more to this than just race. What it shows is that a black cop will never, ever serve their full time for murder, even of a foreign resident (thus causing even more international outcry, at least in theory), and that the state, plus its apparatuses, will thrown itself into conniptions to ensure that NEVER occurs.
Even if we all know he fucking murdered her in cold blood...
They know that, too, and they've just proved that they don't give a single fuck. :-(
“We may very well agree that Noor’s decision to shoot a deadly weapon simply because he was startled was disproportionate and unreasonable,” the justices wrote in their opinion.
Wow, Minnesota you have some of the dumbest judges I've ever seen in my life.
That state needs to be sent to Canada, we are better off having arctic tundra then these fucktards.
In their ruling, the justices said that for a third-degree murder charge, also known as “depraved-mind murder”, the person’s mental state must show a “generalised indifference to human life, which cannot exist when the defendant’s conduct is directed with particularity at the person who is killed”.
This seems like a runaround saying it should have been 2nd degree murder than than 3rd degree.
I assume the next step is we'll find out the female officer who shot the guy when she "meant to reach for her taser" gets just probation or time served or something.
If I'm not mistaken, reads like they only overturned the depraved-mind murder conviction, not the 2nd degree murder conviction. He is still guilty of 2nd degree and will not receive as harsh a punishment as he would have if thrtey kept the depraved-mind conviction as well.
The reasoning appears to be that depraved-mind insinuates a disregard for human life in general but he very specifically acted against Justine.
While it's ludicrously low in comparison to Derek Chauvin's inflated conviction, I think that speaks more to the three-ring show-trial nature of Chavin's case than it does to this one.

Stop thinking your enemies are stupid. They are not. They know exactly what they are doing.
That's black privilege for ya and they try to make a big stink about white privilege which doesn't exist
Did they run the Somalis are too retarded to be expected to function properly defense?
