No. It just raises questions about whether a fair trial was ever possible.
What a load of fucking bullshit.
It was both a race and polictal mixed jury.
Chauvin's problem wasn't that it was not a fair trial, his problem was that IT WAS ON CAMERA!
And not only was it on camera, you had BOTH white and black cops/officials whom all said what he did went too far. You also had medical experts, SEVERAL, whom said that what Chauvin did was a substantial contrubutor to George's death.
I have no doubt, that if no camera's existed as evidence Chauvin would still be on the beat. But that doesn't speak to the truth of the witness's testimony, it speaks to the privilage of abuse of office.
