Important Legal Trials Everywhere

I'm, of course, super interested in the case against Paul Flores and his father in the Kristin Smart case in San Luis Obispo, but I'm also, of course, eager to hear the verdict in the Derek Chauvin case. The jury is deliberating as I write. 

That criminal needs to be found gulity, needs to go to prison, needs to be held accountable for the horrible way he treated a fellow human being. What a pig. He was a cop - he should be stopping dangerous crime, serving search warrants, investigating fraud, stopping people from swindling one another - but not killing an innocent man. 

Hell, a cop is absolutely not even supposed to kill a guilty man, am I right? 

Also, more close to home, I'm following the case of Des Moines Register reporter Andrea Sahouri, who was pepper sprayed and arrested while reporting on a clash between protesters and police. It's a complicated one, but I hope in the end that journalists are protected from outrageous police brutality when covering trials, whether they are black lives matter protests, womens marches, or gun rights rallies. Journalists are so important, they've been critical during this entire covid ordeal, and they need to feel safe to be in the places where news and history are being made.
