California man who was wrongfully convicted by Kamala Harris reveals her sickening taunt when he was found guilty
An actor who was wrongly convicted of murder by Kamala Harris said the vice president laughed at him when the verdict was read in court.
Jamal Trulove was sentenced to 50 years in prison after being accused by police of the 2007 shooting death of his friend Seu Kuka.
Harris was the San Francisco district attorney at the time and was responsible for securing the conviction.
The decision was overturned after Trulove served six years in prison, and he later received a $13.1 million settlement from the city.
Trulove told the talk show The Art Of Dialogue that he can’t get Harris’ cruel comments out of his mind.
Jamal Trulove was sentenced to 50 years in prison after being accused by police of the 2007 shooting death of his friend Seu Kuka. He claims Kamala ‘burst out laughing’ when his guilty verdict was read out
“We looked at each other one time and she laughed,” he said. “She literally burst out laughing.
“It was like she was saying ‘ha-ha’. She wasn’t pointing, but it felt like that.”
Trulove, who endorsed Harris in 2020, said in another YouTube video that he will vote for Trump in November.
“If you’re wondering if I’m going to vote for Kamala ‘Laugh-and-Lie’ Harris, f*** no,” he said.
Trulove was acquitted in a retrial in 2015. Three years after his acquittal, Trulove sued the police and four officers, alleging that they fabricated evidence, coerced a key witness, and withheld key information that might have exonerated Trulove.
A federal jury found that the two lead detectives violated Trulove’s civil rights and awarded him $14.5 million.

Trulove accepted the $13.1 million offer in exchange for the city dropping the appeal. The jury acquitted two other officers of wrongdoing.
The jury found that detectives showed an eyewitness one photo of Trulove instead of showing the person photos of other people as part of a “line-up” to identify a suspect.
Evidence was also presented showing that detectives were aware of the existence of another suspect whom they failed to investigate, and that other mistakes had been made.
The four officers named in Trulove’s lawsuit have retired. None have been disciplined for their roles in the case.
Trulove said before his sentencing he had hoped Harris would treat him more leniently because of 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 who was from Oakland,” he said. “We would think she would be a little more favorable to us.”

Harris’ time as a prosecutor was unfairly criticized by left-wing parties.
Legal scholar Lara Bazelon, former director of the Loyola Law School Project for the Innocent in Los Angeles, said in the New York Times that Harris was “regressive” during her tenure.
“Most disturbingly, Ms. Harris fought tooth and nail to uphold wrongful convictions that were obtained through official misconduct, including evidence tampering, false testimony, and the withholding of crucial information by prosecutors,” Bazelon wrote.
Meanwhile, as California’s attorney general, Harris successfully defended the death penalty in court, despite an earlier crusade against it.
As a new senator, she proposed eliminating cash bail, a reversal of the rules she had previously set when she criticized San Francisco judges for making it “cheaper” to commit crimes by setting bail amounts too low.
“Throughout her law enforcement career, Kamala Harris was a pragmatic prosecutor who successfully took on predators, fraudsters and impostors like Donald Trump,” spokesman James Singer said of her record.
