George Floyd's Uncle Selwyn Jones speaks as jury selection begins

On this episode George Floyds Slwyn Jones speaks to us.

Selwyn Jones’ nephew, George Floyd, died in police custody Monday in Minneapolis after an officer kneeled on his neck for several minutes while Floyd laid handcuffed on the street.

A bystander video shows that Floyd yelled out multiple times that he couldn’t breathe, and the footage sparked national protest, including a demonstration set in Rapid City which Jones plans to attend this weekend.

The four officers involved in the case have been fired as the incident remains under investigation by the FBI and state law enforcement. Derek Chauvin, the officer shown in the video kneeling on Floyd's neck, was charged Friday with third degree murder.

“It’s pretty bad when you wake up and see (that) video in the news,” said Jones, a 54-year-old man from Gettysburg, South Dakota. “I’m thinking, 'Wow, not again.' Then my wife looks at me and says, 'You know who that is?'”First Challenge in George Floyd Murder Trial: Finding an Impartial Jury

Jury selection is scheduled to begin on Monday in the trial of Derek Chauvin, the former police officer charged in connection with Mr. Floyd’s death.

Jury selection is set to begin on Monday, in a courtroom built to comply with pandemic protocols and outfitted with television cameras. Mr. Chauvin is charged with second-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. Before his trial begins, he could face an additional charge of third-degree murder, the Minnesota Court of Appeals ruled on Friday, in a decision that could delay the start of jury selection because Mr. Chauvin has the option to appeal.

The unintended consequences of P Diddy's actions

The unintended consequences of P Diddy's actions

I wanted to give my spin on the drama this happening with P. Diddy. My comments are these are the unintended consequences of doing evil at a high-level and never thinking that one day you would be brought to account for what you have done. I hope people are looking at this through a spiritual lens because this is the time of exposure and P. Diddy is just the tip of the iceberg of the Domino’s that will fall this year. We’re living in a different time now where everything that has been hidden in the dark will come to the light because time is up  For that type of behavior..... pay attention to what’s happening because it may be at our doorstep one day if we don’t stop what we are doing, in our own personal lives .
