        Why weren’t these ‘aggravating’ factors noted during the trial? ‘Pacifying’ people to prove a point is unethical.

        Well the murder of George Floyd is on video & it was clear! So his sentencing always should’ve been tough! 🤷🏽‍♀️

        Nah, this has a different meaning. Aggravating factors are part of sentencing (judges job). Aggravating factors = longer mpaximum sentences possible For example, murdering somebody in front of minors is aggravating. The recording girl was 17.
