Officer Potter, thank you. People don't realize now…but you saved somebody's life down the road. Daunte was a thug and a criminal at only 20 years old!!!….he was going to kill someone sooner or later. One criminal less in US…thank you.
P.S: I pray for you and your family officer Potter.
This judge will suffer every night #NIGHTMARES
Joke sentencing and the usual 'double standards' with the US injustice system when race is involved!🤡☯ï¸ÂÂ
Free Kim Potter NOW!
Kim Potter deserves much more time and no possibility of ever serving in law enforcement.
I expected her to get 5 years at most, but to see that she received 2 years, it's just shocking. I don't think Daunte should have tried to take off and flee. That was just plain wrong. But an officer with that much time on the force that doesn't remember which item is on her belt, doesn't make it right either. Hopefully we can all learn from this terrible event and not to repeat it.
The philosophy of the rich and the poor is this: the rich invest their money and spend what is left. The poor spend their money and invest what is left.â€ÂÂ
So that she could appease Ms Potter; Judge Choo went out of her way to snatch the ex-cops defeat from the jaws of victory. Even though I am disappointed at her unprofessional conduct, I can't say that I am surprised. Throughout the trial, she showed blatant favouritism to the defence. " I was moved by the hundreds of letters received in support of Ms Potter", She said. Arent Judges not supposed to be swayed by public influence? Too bad the Wrights didn't know that all it took was a letter-writing campaign to influence this disgraceful Judge. Shame on her. SHAME. SHAME. SHAME.
2:50 😒 Couldn't help yourself, had to take it one step further

This makes me hate Asians even more. It is clear they have sided with white supremacy and protecting them.
This judge cried more for Kim Potter than she did for the family of the dead teen. This is the Latasha Harlins case and sentencing all over again. Shot and killed over an orange juice. That judge gave zero time to the Korean store owner that was found guilty on all charges
People don't seem to realize that Mr Wright would have been driving a 3,000-pound bullet! He would have been speeding and running stop lights, stop signs, passing in no passing zones, endangering EVERYONE in his way. His car becomes a DEADLY WEAPON at that point and deadly force to stop said weapon should be authorized. Officer Potter put her life on the line for 26 years!!! She is not a criminal! Mr. Wright however WAS a criminal and he put his own life in jeopardy, along with the lives of the officers trying to arrest him and keep him from driving off. They PROTECTED the community from a deadly threat! She shouldn't spend a single day in jail.
Hell yeah. Pretty damn fair if you ask me.
what is strange about this case is not the 2 years sentence – it’s the fact that this was ever treated as a crime – which it clearly was not – what is also strange is the amount of morons in this country – which is really high – higher than any time in history. If you have any questions – I suggest watching the video maybe.
Cops are going to start saying "taser" when they want to kill. What a great precedent
Judge needs to be revoked
I can't understand how so many people don't hold the young man accountable for his actions. Had he behaved himself he would have been home in time for dinner but now he is dead because he showed his ass. The incompetent cop made a tragic mistake but it was a mistake. Shame his parents didn't teach him how to act when pulled over by police. His complete lack of respect for him killed. It's all on camera.
At least this Kim Potter case judge gave an explanation to her decision/sentencing unlike Kyle Rittenhouse case judge‼ï¸ÂÂ
2 years in jail for taking a life, how is that fair and justifyâ‰︠Is law enforcement above the law and given leniencyâ‰ï¸ÂÂ
Shocking, absolutely shocking ðŸ‘ÂÂ
So Magamed Noor for Justine got higher sentence because he is black !
Kim should probably have been given a medal.

how many unsolved murders happened in chaz? are they even still looking for suspects?
Evil evil evi….murder!!evil….!!! She killed someone who looks like me!! She put a gun to the boy chest and shot him!! WTF!!!!!!! Are you fucking kidding?? Yall might as well just kill us all. This makes me sick. This is going to further divide our country…the bitch was smiling in her orange suit..are you kidding?
Daunte Wright Shot Teen In Head In 2019, Causing ‘Serious, Disabling And Permanent Injuries’..Where is the justice there?
Time to look into this judges past sentencing.
Look for sentencing disparities.
The judge just may need to be removed from the bench.
Look at her past judgements on every case she's handled.
Remove her from the bench if things are amiss.
F&CK Duante Wright. Officer Potter did not mean to kill the little POS, but she did, and did society a favor. Let the worms choke on his foul worthless remains. His POS mother has a lot to say about the criminal she raised and did nothing to stop his doings. So F her too!
Hey Trevor, Race Bait much???
