New charges for Derek Chauvin?

Question

So now that Chauvin’s trial has wrapped, his previous incidents involving excessive force are being looked into (18 incidents). One of the most harrowing involves him hitting a teen with his flashlight & kneeling on the teen for roughly 17 minutes while the mom pleaded for Chauvin not to kill her son. These were not allowed to be mentioned during his trial (even though Floyd’s past drug use was). So my question is: should Chauvin only be held accountable for these past events or should his higher ups who basically condoned his behavior? It’s easy for the Minneapolis PD to separate themselves now from the disgraced convicted murderer, but what about the ones in charge who knew about his problem with using excessive force & never took him off the streets? Who would u rather see held accountable if the typical “punish one to take the heat for all” is applicable here?

Answer

i think it’s absolutely disgusting that the police force is set up in a way that allows an officer to get away with 18 violent instances. 
just feel like we’re continuously reminded at just how avoidable George Floyd’s death was.

Answer

Chavin should be held accountable and should the ones in charge. If not police brutality will continue to be a problem.

Answer

Had him accountable for every single incident he committed. These cops need to start being held accountable for things to start changing. The justice needs to make it clear that police brutality is unacceptable.

Answer

Chauvin should be held accountable for all of his acts of brutality and the leadership that allowed it to continue should be held accountable as well.

Answer

He should be held accountable for any and all accounts of abuse of power and/or assaults.
Without knowing all the details and how many instances there are, I can't say the extent of what his bosses should face. I would say at least demotion.  Possibly/probably loss of job all together.

Answer

Both. Him, yes, but also those who allowed him to continue working are just as guilty. I'd lean towards the higher ups because it could result in systemic change. 
Otherwise chauvin is just a sacrificial lamb - he'll go down to appease the crowds (and bc he deserves it) but the institution remains unchanged.

Answer

Most definitely should be held accountable but unlikely will

Answer

I think he should be held accountable for all previous incidents.

Answer

I think people there need to be fired an replaced and the police force in that area needs new leadership. It should be the same in any area with a record of “problem cops”. We need better people leading them that can make changes within the system.

Answer

Hold him & his superiors accountable. They knew his history & they did nothing. They're just as guilty.
