George Floyd pardon for drugs arrest

[Byker28i]

I couldn't find the original thread...

Brought up many times in his case was that Floyd served10 months in a state jail for selling $10 worth of crack in a police sting.His attorney said Floyd pled guilty to avoid a more-severe sentencing.

Claims now that the officer that arrested him Gerald Goine, invented evidence, fabricated a confidential informant and no one bothered to question the word of a veteran cop.

More than 160 convictions by Goine have now been dismissed

The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroleshave now recommended a full posthumous pardon.
