Jamal Trulove accuses Kamala Harris of disdainful behavior during his wrongful conviction

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: An actor who was falsely found guilty of murder by Kamala Harris claims the Vice President laughed at him when the verdict was announced in court.

Jamal Trulove was given a 50-year prison sentence after being set up by the police for the 2007 shooting of his friend Seu Kuka, according to the Daily Mail.

During that period, Kamala Harris served as the District Attorney for San Francisco and played a role in securing the conviction.

After spending six years behind bars, Trulove's conviction was overturned, and he later received a $13.1 million settlement from the city. However, Trulove revealed on ‘The Art Of Dialogue’ talk show that he has been unable to forget Harris' cruel taunt.

"We locked eyes this one time, and she laughed," he recounted. "She literally just, like, kind of busted out laughing.”

“Almost as if she was pointing like, 'ha-ha', she didn't point, but that's how it felt," Trulove remarked.

What did Jamal Trulove say regarding Kamala Harris?

Trulove, who had previously endorsed Kamala Harris in 2020, declared in a separate YouTube video that he intends to vote for former president Donald Trump in November.

"If you're wondering if I'll be voting for Kamala 'Laugh-and-Lie' Harris, f**k no," he stated.

Trulove was acquitted in a retrial in 2015.

Three years after being exonerated, Trulove filed a lawsuit against the police department and four officers, alleging they manipulated evidence, coerced a crucial eyewitness, and withheld key information that could have cleared him.

A federal jury concluded that the two lead homicide detectives had violated Trulove's civil rights and awarded him $14.5 million.

Trulove accepted a $13.1 million settlement in exchange for the city dropping its appeal. The jury absolved two other officers of any wrongdoing.

The jury discovered that the detectives involved showed an eyewitness only one photograph of Trulove instead of conducting a “lineup” with pictures of multiple individuals to identify a suspect.

Furthermore, evidence was presented indicating that the detectives were aware of another suspect whom they did not investigate, among other failures.

The four officers mentioned in Trulove's lawsuit have retired, and none of them faced repercussions for their involvement in the case. No one has been convicted of Kuka's murder since Trulove's acquittal either.

Trulove shared that before his conviction, he had hoped Kamala Harris might show leniency towards him due to her background.

"People in the projects knew who she was because she was a black district attorney and we thought we had a black district attorney in office that was from Oakland," he said. "We would think that she would be a little more favorable to us."

Nevertheless, Harris' tenure as a prosecutor has been criticized by some on the left as being excessively severe.

Lara Bazelon, a law professor and former director of the Loyola Law School Project for the Innocent in Los Angeles, told The New York Times that Harris was “regressive” during her time as a prosecutor.

"Most troubling, Ms Harris fought tooth and nail to uphold wrongful convictions that had been secured through official misconduct that included evidence tampering, false testimony and the suppression of crucial information by prosecutors," Bazelon wrote.

Additionally, as California's attorney general, Kamala Harris actively defended the death penalty in court, despite previously opposing it.

As a new senator, she proposed eliminating cash bail—a departure from her previous criticism of San Francisco judges for setting bail amounts too low.

"During her career in law enforcement, Kamala Harris was a pragmatic prosecutor who successfully took on predators, fraudsters and cheaters like Donald Trump," spokesperson James Singer stated in defense of her record.

One X user asked, "Why did he endorse her in 2020? Doesn’t make sense."

Another user said, "Criminals thinking the black district attorney would be on their side is insane."

Another user wrote, "This is the first time I'm hearing about this, wtf. I'm glad Jamal is free now. How disgusting that his freedom was almost ripped from him. Appalling."

One X user remarked, "He got that 13 million and did right by it. Love to see it."

Another user asserted, "He literally just endorsed Kamala in 2020."

Another user claimed, "It’s a lie. She wasn’t involved in his case."

Finally, this user tweeted, "Sorry. I’m still voting for her. Next?"
