The beginning of the video will be played for the jury in the Chauvin trial. Eating your stash can be dangerous, no? Especially when Floyd was already high out of his mind before he went into the store to steal the cigarettes. This is the type of behaviour that could be expected of George. Behaviour that could kill people. Did behaviour like this contribute to his death? Maybe.
It's lying under oath, no matter how you look at it. The witnesses were angry and they should have been angry. He could have defended himself without lying under oath. Just say, "Yes, of course I was angry but I was no threat to anyone." Then, as a juror, I don't see you as a liar who's trying to say whatever he can to bury Chauvin. How can I, as a juror, trust anything about what he's said about MMA techniques and all of that, when he won't simply admit, that yes, he wasn't thrilled that someone was being killed in front of his eyes and he's not a robot without emotions?
How can you, as a juror, evaluate the emotional state of a witness to an incident from ten months ago? Maybe he’s in therapy for anger management. Maybe he’s one of those rare birds who simply doesn’t get angry.
Or maybe - just maybe - you decided he’s lying because you need him to be lying.

Maybe because he's on video threatening to assault the officers? Did we forget about that already?
