A Hennepin County judge says the case against former Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor will go forward. The former Minneapolis police officer shot and killed Justine Ruszczyk Damond last year.
The Australian native had called 911 to report a possible sexual assault behind her southwest Minneapolis home. Noor’s attorneys say he acted reasonably when he shot Ruszczyk Damond. They’re asking the judge to dismiss the charges.
However, prosecutors say Noor acted recklessly in using deadly force.
Noor’s defense attorneys filed motions they hoped would lead to the case against their client being dismissed. Instead, they sat with the former Minneapolis police officer as Judge Kathryn Quaintance wasted no time listing the motions filed by the defense and her reasons for denying them.
A motion to dismiss for prosecutorial misconduct was filed after Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman was caught on tape talking about the case and the BCA’s involvement. The judge denied that motion, saying Freeman did not jeopardize the case.
The defense also wanted to suppress medical records that include notes from Noor’s psychological testing while with the department. The defense believes that information should be suppressed because of physician patent privacy.
The judge saw no medical privilege and denied the motion. Noor’s attorneys also filed a motion to dismiss for lack of probable cause. They say their client acted reasonably when he shot Ruszcyzk Damond. Prosecutors say Noor acted recklessly in using deadly force.
Judge Quaintance denied the motion and says there is probable cause and Noor should have his day in court.
Noor’s trial begins April 1, 2019.
Justine Damond ping.
On or off this ping list, give me a shout.
The end result of affirmative action hires
At a minimum, lock him up.
And the peeps who hired and trained him...
Diversity got Justine killed.
Let’s import a people whose gift to the world is the running sore known as “Somalia.”
That should work out.
“Embrace the Murder....”
“Celebrate and Embrace the Murder....”
Let’s hope justice is served. It won’t bring Justine back, the lives of her family and loved ones have been changed forever. Time for her murderer to have his life changed forever too.
Fire him.
He was fired a long time ago.
On.
Fire him AT him against a wall.
There fixed it.
I like that.
I'd want to see brain matter fly, being me, were it my girl the slimy muzz murdered.
Yes, you are.
He better get convicted.
JoMa
Excellent!
Yeah, but what concerns me is that the trial doesn’t begin until 4/1/19 and he’s out on bail.
YEEEEESSSSSSSS !!!!
