2: Playing a Losing Hand: How Hennepin County Stack the Deck Against Justice

In this episode of The Hennepin County Stacked Deck, we dive deep into the Hennepin County Attorney's Office (HCAO) and its role in shielding law enforcement from accountability. We explore the intricate web of how the system is stacked with in-house experts, making it nearly impossible for misconduct to be prosecuted. Drawing comparisons to the infamous case of George Floyd, we ask: why does Hennepin County, a place with a population of under 1.3 million, generate such global outrage?

We recount the absurd conclusions HCAO presented about David’s death, alleging self-immolation despite glaring inconsistencies. From ignored critical evidence like open windows on a freezing night to an unexplained second oil pour and a missing ignition source, we unravel the investigative missteps. How can these shallow conclusions stand when the facts tell a far more complex story? This episode exposes the systemic failures that may explain why David’s case was not properly investigated or prosecuted and raises questions about how far this misconduct extends.

Stay tuned as we continue our fight for justice and reveal more shocking evidence in the next episode.
