It is pretty infuriating that if a judge wants you to be declared guilty they will just forbid the defense from displaying evidence or testimony in your favor.'It's Saddening': Court Overturns Conviction of Former South Florida Cop Who 'Accidentally' Shot a Black Caretaker He Believed Was Being Held Hostage By An Autistic Man

Pretty scummy thing to do there, judge.
Also saying it overturned the conviction is inaccurate. The upper court declared a mistrial (on the basis of the judge forbidding the defense from displaying testimony). But it did not declare him innocent, instead he is getting a new trial where he might be declared guilty or innocent.
Also news is trying to racebait as usual... they make it out as if he shot the black guy for being black. But he shot 3 times, 2 missed and a 3rd hit the supposed hostage in the leg. Nobody actually aims at legs so we have a case of the cop having really really bad aim.
Which is not a good thing mind you. Someone with aim that bad shouldn't be a swat cop.
I want the police to know and understand that the democrats will never have their back and turn on them at the turn of a dime. Once that's burned into their heads that the left hates them and will never have their back that the only thing they will ever get from them is a shitty paycheck?
Well when the people finally have enough thats one more group that will simply walk away.

So to summarize what happened:'It's Saddening': Court Overturns Conviction of Former South Florida Cop Who 'Accidentally' Shot a Black Caretaker He Believed Was Being Held Hostage By An Autistic Man
In a controversial case involving a police officer who shot a Black man who was trying to secure a mentally disabled man from harm in the middle of a city
BM = Black Man = Professional Tard Wrangler = Alleged Hostage
WM = White Man = Severely Autistic & Retarded man holding silvery metal truck = Alleged Hostage Taker
SC = Swat Cop = Light Brown skinned Latino looking Cop who is in SWAT team
1. Someone calls the cops. Tells cop that a white man has taken a black man hostage and is holding him at gunpoint in the middle of the street.
2. Cops send over a swat team. 8 cops.
3. SWAT team orders everyone to drop their weapons and lie down on the ground. BM complies, WM does not comply.
4. SWAT team is arguing on whether WM is holding a gun or a toy and whether they should shoot him.
5. SC takes things into his own hands and starts shooting at WM.
shot 1... missed
shot 2... missed
shot 3... hits the hostage in the leg. oops.
6. SC is on trial... Activist Judge forbids defense from presenting testimony because he wants a conviction.
7. Upper court declares a mistrial on the basis of #6. However instead of declaring SC innocent they simply order a new proper trial
8. News tries to paint the whole thing as "racist white cop shoots innocent black man". Also cries that it is a travesty that SC is even being given a fair trial as this new trial might actually find him innocent. Paints the whole thing as courts being biased in favor of whites/cops.
edit: that all being said. I am not saying SC is innocent. As Point 5 is a pretty big fuckup.

This is standard, and applies to both sides. The judge can not allow things that aren't relevant, aren't legally relevant, is relevant but the evidence was wrongly acquired, etc. This is necessary because there's a bunch of stuff you don't want to include in a criminal trial ("victim was a good person" "victim was a bad person" "defendant did something unrelated but embarrassing" are the extremes, but it also includes stuff like "evidence for a wrong legal theory which could confuse the jury" which is what happened here).
Here, the judge considered the training irrelevant as to culpable negligence, because training doesn't enter into the law. A cop could obey training and be guilty of culpable negligence because it is based on a reasonableness standard, not a 'did he follow training standard'. The appellate court found, however, that the prosecution opened the door to considering training by talking about the other cops reaction to what happened. At least, as far as I can tell.
So yeah, fairly reasonable acts by both sides.
That is what overturning a conviction means: declaring a mistrial. That's how those words are used when legal people talk about what happened.

Pretty sure overturning does not mean new trial, it means dismissing the conviction...
hmmm. ok I looked it up real quick and apparently BOTH are overturning. Either dismissing the conviction entirely or calling for a new trial are both called overturning. Huh.
please note I did not use "liberal" or "conservative". I just said "judge".
also there are more than 2 sides.
I meant sides in a criminal case, so Defendant and Prosecution, not liberal vs conservative. Trust me, as a libertarian, I know there are more than 2 sides with politics.
The other sides I'm talking about are the judge and the appeals court who overruled him, which loosely map to the defendant or prosecution.

A group of women, looking for salvation or whatever, met a Pastor at a local Church, the Hillsdale Baptist Church in Clarksville, Tennessee and then during the service, kindly prayed with a 78 year old churchgoer and while she prayed for them, one of the women went through her purse while she was distracted and stole her wallet among other belongings so they could later go on a shopping spree at a nearby Sam's Club.
