Why isn't all the other cops convicted? Even with video evidence they're still not convicted hmm..... Oh I forgot

Bet he barely gets any time and then gets it reduced to probation if anything during appeals.

Terrible situation.

You all forget...the press make sure to say she was “Australian” stop with the black vs white and think like a diplomat...🤷🏽‍♂️

Black cop - prison. White cop - paid leave.

Good

Justice is best served cold

He bulk it’s obvious he would be convicted he can’t use I was in fear or I thought it was my appointment

Like most expected justice is only served in these police civilian shootings if the victim is white. Eric Garner screamed that he couldn't breath and the police still suffocated him to death. of course they were found innocent in that case

So if the cop was white and the women was black (reversed) would you have put their race in your tweet? Of course you would have. Everything is about identity politics bull crap with you all.

deray If only we hit this justice every time

jtLOL Read the background on this person. He was not LEO material and authorities knew it. Hired anyway to balance the numbers.

Where is the back the blue crowd?

Blue lives matter awfully quiet.

Good. Finally there's one.

Of course he was convicted, he's not white. Anyone who thinks otherwise is fast asleep. White cop? Probably start w/paid suspension, then a 'trial' where he's aquitted, or the least amount of sentence. And, people really wonder why black people are always on edge about police.

WTF was she doing in the alley late at night thinking someone was being raped. Officer used poor judgement but she was off the charts for putting herself out there.

Back the blue, unless he's black.

The police union will make sure that this gets overturned on appeal

Good.

Thank you court system for doing the correct thing. Now what he going to run for congress?

Finally actual Justice!!!!!!!!!!!!

ComfortablySmug The only good thing to come out of that horror...

So many racists on this post.

deray Where are the bluelivesmatter folks? 🤔🤔🤔

Blue Lives Matter!!!! Oh he was black & Muslim? 25 to life please.

deray Should’ve been convicted. But, why was he convicted and not the others when...oh, never mind.

deray

Well it’s about time at least one cop was convicted of shooting an unarmed civilian- it happens way too much in this country

Who paid for his expensive suit?

Great news.

He capped her plain and simple.

Look at these uneducated liberals blaming race on the verdict. Do research on the actual case

Good. No more hires like him.

Good. That case was outrageous. Firing at the person who called them because he was scared of a slap on the car?! Don’t be a cop. Guilty.

Even when the judicial system does the right thing for once. All everyone wants to do is bitch about what would have happened if the races were different. No winning for them

Hello Justice, greetings from Australia,

No one is above the law

Finally some justice which unfortunately won't bring her back. Many prayers to her family & friends!

If he was white,he would be home now !

Uphold justice

Geez. Do they start the day with coffee or cocaine? Why so hyper? They need Zen classes for police officers. My, my, my.

Well, since you didn't say 'unarmed black' woman, I'm assuming she was white.

That poor girl was just trying to do the right thing. 'See something Say something' and it cost her life. RIP Justine Ruszczyk Damond.

Of course they decided to enforce the law on him, he's a POC. When r we gonna start seeing white cops get punished for killing ppl while on duty?

deray Good! He shot that poor woman in cold blood and I hope he spends life in jail. Now, out of all the police shootings this cop is the one that just happens to be found guilty? He’s a Muslim Somali refugee.

And yet .... the officer that killed Philando Castile was found not guilty ....

ComfortablySmug On pins and needles waiting for fake black guy shaunking reaction. sizzlingtake

Some cop did some thing

Black guy named Mohamed... there was never any doubt

Christi196155 Murderer convicted. Woman called the police. Police officer shot her (...apparently feared for his life... or partner's life...) She was unarmed, innocent. Called police because of possible assault. Cop convicted. Murderer convicted. Victim was white female.

Affirmative Action at its best.

And exactly what I predicted is happening right in this thread.

Good, he should have never been hired but the city needed 'diversity' in their ranks.

No sh*t. He wasn’t white. WhitePrivilege

Another Minneapolis miracle.

Unfortunately, he isn't the right skin tone to get away with it.

Yes!

deray Where’s the BlueLivesMatter crowd now? Oh wait the officer’s black? Let him rot in jail forever...

good, best news all day

Somali refugee who had no business being a cop killed a woman in public without husband present. diversity diversityisourstrength fixed it for you lying media

Somali Muslim

Good.

He was Somalian. The first Somalian police officer.

When the victim is a pretty white lady and the cop has a Muslim-sounding name 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

I don’t know what happened here. But I know what would have happened if this cop was white and the deceased were Black...And this is why we have to say BlackLivesMatter.

What a disgrace to law enforcement. They were so proud because he was a Somali Muslim cop when it should be about who’s best for the job.

What's different about this case compared to so many other cops not getting convicted? 🤔

Had the fast track to be hired as a MPLS Policeman he failed, MN failed ,now lets do the fast track and deport him back to Somalia.

Another good black man officer dad GONE😭✊️🏼BUT justice 😣

If it was a white officer killing a black person he would got a raise and a vacation

So how come they can't seem to convict white police officers?

Good.

I think this was a good call. We can't b so paranoid as to shot 1st and look later. Normally, I stick up 4 our officers, but this time it seemed very negligent.

Whaaaaaat? I'm shocked. 😐

Wow. If only he were white and she were black... This is amazing, even cops have a two tiered justice system.

Praise Allah

Barely justice but we will take it

Wow ,that is heavy these cops are trigger happy

Black officer? Has no chance to get away with murder

Good

Now put him away this time

I should fucking hope so
