He'll get a very long term sentence. 8 minutes on a man's neck, WTF do you want?

Proving causation for murder will be tough.

imagine you’re on the jury... to convict someone of murder you have to prove intent and causation.

medical experts aren’t even sure he was killed by the knee to the neck, but you think a jury will say beyond a reasonable doubt that it was the knee and not the fatal dose of drugs? Good luck...

jurors are morons and easily swayed, see the OJ Simpson verdict, but if the jurors do the job properly, they likely will have to acquit because there is not clear cut proof of causation.

He is not charged with degree murder - he is charged with 2nd degree felony murder which gets rid of the intent element - pretty sure he will be convicted of this - don't see any way out of it - even if all the experts testify the heroin and heart disease killed him - the totality of the arrest was still a factor - that alone is enough


can you say without a reasonable doubt that Floyd wouldn’t have died if Chauvin never touched him? I sure can’t. As such, if I was on the jury, I could not in good conscious say there’s not reasonable doubt that Floyd was killed by Chauvin.

If the jury pool is a bunch of idiots, you could get a conviction, yes.

Only if you live in a city with a liberal mayor

sorry you were so easily fooled by the troll over at eog. Simple.

The only issue is - the far left will have the plan in motion far in advance - if he is somehow acquitted - they will just say go

I can't say anything - but legally the standard that is the law and that will be read to the jury is whether or not this officer's conduct was a contributing factor in his death - I just don't see how anyone can overlook that standard

If Chauvin gets acquitted then you should head for the nearest air raid shelter.....

Not everyone is a defenseless, pedo, child molesting piece of shit that you are.

You will not see these AntiFa/BLM sissies enter suburbs.

Let’s see how this goes

[FONT=&quot]A Hennepin County judge heard arguments Thursday to push back the trial date to summertime for the former Minneapolis police officers charged in the death of George Floyd.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Currently, the jury trial for former officers Derek Chauvin, Thomas Lane, Alexander Kueng and Tou Thao is scheduled to begin on March 8.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The prosecution filed a motion on Dec. 31 to postpone the trial to June 7, citing COVID-19 concerns.

Chauvin should be convicted, manslaughter at a minimum

The others should never even been charged

In today's society - where Lebron James in the voice of the nation (according to fake news) - we will be Syria - just a smoldering fire pit - and Joey Biden will be the leader of it all
