Those are going to be harder since the rest of them didn't have a knee on his neck. But they should be convicted of aiding Chauvin. If one of them had been like the bystanders, they could have forced Chauvin to back off. They didn't so they certianly deserved to be on trial.

"If convicted of the most serious charge, Chauvin faces 12 1/2 years or 150 months in prison under sentencing guidelines for a first-time offender. But, the prosecution argues there are aggravating factors that require a longer prison term. That means Chauvin may face longer than that sentence."
This was written before the verdict was reached but I have looked on several site and all say that the 40 sentence for the most serious charge would likely be reduced 12.5 years since Chauvin is a first time offender.
I expect his sentencing to cause more chaos than the verdict.
True, but if he had been found not guilty, America would make the Watts riots look like a bonfire.
