AceShowbiz - Cardi B is annoyed by Kim Potter's mugshot. Upon learning that the former Minnesota police officer smiled on the picture following her guilty verdict in Daunte Wright's death, the "WAP" hitmaker offered her two cents on the matter.
Taking to Twitter on Thursday, December 23, the 29-year-old femcee quote-retweeted an article that featured Kim's mugshot. Alongside the post, she wrote, "It's funny to me how her cries seemed so fake but her smile seems so genuine #itwasneveramistake."
One of Cardi's followers then commented on her tweet, saying that he/she is "confused" with Kim smiling on the mugshot. Catching wind of the reply, the mother of two explained, "She's smiling cause she only got manslaughter."
"Also because now she don't have to fake it and she CAN LIVE IN HER TRUTH…Her truth is ' yea I killed him and what?!' " the wife of Offset further opined. "That's the truth she been wanting to say but had to act like she was sorry."
Kim has been found guilty of first-degree and second-degree manslaughter for fatally shooting Daunte during a traffic stop. The first-degree manslaughter charge carries a maximum sentence of seven years, while the second-degree charge carries a four-year sentence.
As for the incident, it took place back in April in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul metropolitan area. Kim previously claimed that she meant to use her Taser instead of her handgun when Daunte allegedly resisted arrest after being pulled over. Two days after the shooting, she and Brooklyn Center police chief Tim Gannon resigned from their positions.
Now that Kim has been found guilty, Daunte's mother Katie Bryant thanked everyone for their support. "We want to thank the entire prosecution team," she said in a statement. "We want to thank community support, everybody who has been out there that has supported us in this long fight for accountability."
