George Soros-Backed DA Charges California Officer in Case from 2018 After Chauvin Verdict
22 Apr 2021
Contra Costa County, California, District Attorney Diana Becton, who was backed by left-wing billionaire George Soros, charged a sheriff’s deputy Wednesday in a shooting from 2018 after the same officer shot an armed suspect last month.
The charges against Deputy Andrew Hall alsocame the day after a Minnesota jury convicted former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin of murder and manslaughter in the death of George Floyd.
In 2018, Hall shot and killed 33-year-old Laudemer Arboleda during a high-speed pursuit. As the Associated Pres (AP) notes:
In the 2018 incident, the 33-year-old Arbodela was killed after leading officers on a slow chase through Danville. Sheriff’s Department video shows Hall stopping his patrol car, getting out and running toward the sedan driven by Arboleda. Hall then opened fire and continued to shoot as Arboleda’s car passed by, striking Arboleda nine times.
