Chauvin Murder Trial

No. It just raises questions about whether a fair trial was ever possible.

Really? My take away is that she was going to vote guilty irrespective of personal danger. Like a proper juror, she reached her conclusion based on what was presented at trial.

What’s fairer than that?

You know exactly what I meant. Stop pretending. If someone in the mob threatens a witness or juror, would you be saying that that is irrelevant since the person says they would have voted the way the mob wanted them to anyways? You like the BLM mob so you're giving them a pass. You don't like the Italian mob so you would not give them a pass.

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.

All irrelevant to my point Brian if jurors are fearing for their safety. We're not talking about the evidence and officer testimony and things like that here. I'm just saying this gives the defense more grounds to argue that this was not a fair trial.
