The George Floyd Act addresses qualified immunity by creating a cause of action for deprivation of rights; requires corroboration for the testimony of undercover police officers; adds a duty to intervene and to render aid; prohibits chokeholds and limits lethal force to imminent threat of serious bodily injury or death. It also ends arrests for many non-jailable fine-only violations and mandates creation of a progressive disciplinary matrix establishing different disciplinary actions for policy violations and violations of law by police. The law would call for these actions to be developed through a statewide process with stakeholders using evidence-based practices.

Mo’unga drawing barrier 21 in tomorrow’s Group 1
Doncaster Handicap at
Randwick.
The Warwick Farm-based horsewoman expects the last start Group 1 Rosehill Guineas winner to benefit from the awkward draw, confirming that rider Robbie Dolan has been instructed to settle nearest to last aboard the Aquis-owned talent.

We were obviously hoping that the track was going to be a bit more rain affected but she drew lovely and she had a good run throughout, didn’t spend a penny. She travelled up really good and when she got the gaps she really let rip. She’s in terrific form and for her to be able to do that with 57kg on her back, she had a good horse’s weight, she pu
Annabel Neasham was unlucky not to snare her maiden stakes win with Mo’unga in the Randwick Guineas last Saturday but the emerging trainer ticked the milestone at Canberra on Monday.
Promising colt Equation had won two of three coming into the Canberra Guineas (1600m) and added to that handy record as he held off a fast finishing Kermanding to win the 2021 edition of the Listed event.
“He’s done nothing wrong in four starts and he’s got bigger and better things to in store,” Neasham told Sky Thoroughbred Central.

Her seventh Group One win was a customary tough display as the Caulfield Cup champion staved off a quartet of horses in a five-way go to claim the G1 feature at Randwick.
