Confident Women have a different mindset, they’re interest is never on the next women or following trends. They pave their own path and forge their own goals. They create paths of their own and revel in being “one of a kind”.

Kim Potter, the police woman who fatally shot Dante Wright said “sorry” repeatedly as she addressed Wright’s family in the court room before sentencing on Friday. The former Minneapolis police officer said she confused or mistook her handgun for her taser.
Potter was convicted in December of first- and second-degree manslaughterin the April 11 killing of Wright, a 20-year-old Black motorist, she was sentenced on Friday to two years in prison. Only on the more serious charge in accordance with state law. Wright’s family denounced the sentence as too lenient and accused the judge of giving more consideration to the white officer than the Black victim.
Speaking before the sentence was imposed, Potter was shaking and tearful. A much different image from that shown in her smiling mugshot.

Potter offered an apology to Wright’s family, then spoke directly to his mother: “Katie, I understand a mother’s love. I’m sorry I broke your heart … my heart is broken and devastated for all of you.”

I’ve been out of the blog talk life for a minute. It’s been a busy and trying 2 years but I’m going to ease my way back into my blog talk radio spot. This Stella really needs to get her groove back. Take a listen and talk to me.
A police officer has never been acquitted in this country for killing a black man, correct me if I’m wrong. And the way the defense is trying to justify Floyd’s murder is purely deceiving and politics at its best.
The trial of Derek Chauvin continued Wednesday with the defense’s medical expert testifying that the former officer kneeling on George Floyd’s neck did not play a critical role in the 46-year-old’s death last May. David Fowler, a former Maryland chief medical examiner, testified that “all of Floyd’s injuries were in areas that Chauvin’s knee did not press on.”
This statement is laughable, when the video speaks otherwise. Witnesses present that day and for all who continue to see that video around the world, can’t undo seeing Floyd murdered before our very eyes. The anger and outrage still lingers.
So what happens if Chauvin is acquitted? This is tonight’s question of topic on “Conversations Of A Sistah”
