The officers said 'he's talking fine', but when he wasn't responsive, the only one who's behaviour changed was Lane, who was stupid to believe Chauvin's throw away lies, and didn't have the courage to intervene.
@@keeshakhan7136 Lane is the officer who was concerned, and asked Chauvin if they should roll Floyd over, but obviously, that's not good enough, it was reasonable to expect him to try to stop Chauvin and Kueng, and by holding Floyd's legs down, even if he wasn't directly lowering Floyd's oxygen level as Chauvin and Kueng were, he was an indirect part of the oxygen deficiency because he held his legs down.
@@maryb6672 Kueng was also very inexperienced, but in my opinion, that shouldn't get them any leniency, what was needed didn't require any police experience, the bystanders would have got Chauvin off Floyd if they could, but Thao stopped them.

EMT sure has advanced, seems you can be a medical trainer and addiction specialist if you do know how to put a band aid on. The woman standing in the crowd is an EMT and she wasn't allowed to help. She didn't jog Chauvin's memory on this training that's for sure.
She’s not a nut. She was there. She is a first responder. She saw a man dying. She was genuinely upset and understood what was happening. And she didn’t testify as an expert. Pay attention.
@@lizziem6640 In a crisis situation the worst thing you can do is to get upset. She claims she acted like a professional, while nothing could be further from the truth. Try listening to an airline pilot on the radio during an emergency. They are calm and focused on solving the problem, not crying and resorting to emotions. The opposite of Genevieve.
I’ve tried to catch up on these testimonies, but I have an honest question. Has any witness given a statement that would seem to support the defendant? Other than Arizona Girl doing a poor job as a witness, has anyone really gone to defend Derek? Seems that even his department hasn’t stood behind their former officer.
These are the states witnesses. Once the state rests, the defence will be able to call their witnesses. I'm guessing they will call on character testimony witnesses.
No. The Chief, his Trainer & his Supervisor testified he breached Code of Conduct & training by: 1. Excessive force used 2. Incorrect restraint technique used 3. Failure to stop restraint once subdued 4. Failure to start CPR as soon as unresponsive Regardless of addiction or existing health issues there is also a legal 'Duty of Care' for detainee health & safety that these 4 actions also breached. The Forensic Toxicologist testified Floyd's drug levels were too low for overdose. The ER Doctor testified he found no symptoms of overdose. Officers & Paramedics carry Narcan for overdose. It's the 'gold standard' in overdose care. Neither used it.
After watching several days of testimony by veteran and seasoned officers, and medical professionals, I find this witness odd. She's only been on the force for six years, her degrees are in human resources and business, she's only an EMT ... and yet she's training other officers on these matters.
He couldve died of overdose that day & looked like asleep or passed out from drugs...but when he quit raising cain & incessant yelling, sqirming & ranting, i think they should have backed off of him. A sign something was wrong. Has to be beyond shadow of doubt. Think defense lawyer is winning.
Don't ever be on a jury. You need to weigh the facts and the Maurice Hall guy who was in the car with him knows the drug angle too well. The state hasn't granted him immunity, so that is unfair to Chauvin. Hall is a petty criminal, and too deserves a fair trial, but when a guy is facing 40 years behind bars, Morries needs to come clean.
But Jacqueline, Just because squishing people kills can kill people and he died while three people were squishing him does NOT mean that he died because there were three men squishing him. He could have died from an undetectable panic attack that we call excited delirium.
Nelson is grasping at straws, trying to blame the bystanders that wanted to help , Officer lollipop Guild was the one goading the few bystanders... just a case of 'another day another dollar' for these cowboys.. no care for life. Potential police officers should stand a test with Peter Hyatt before being accepted in the service.
Why care for a life that even the person it belonged to didn't care for? Some people need to learn resisting arrest can/will make you a winner of the Room Temperature Challenge.
@@kevind1980 alot of people in this world have no self worth & struggle everyday to survive. Including alcoholism, drug use, and just general mental health issues that manifest over a lifetime.
People are overly reacting emotionally to the situation. The burden is on the state to prove guilt, beyond any reasonable doubt, that his actions caused his death. Reasonable doubt could include overdose, inability to render ems or cpr because the situation (including the bystanders growing more volitile) was not safe to do so, not just because the suspect was compliant or unresponsive. It requires both the state of the suspect AND the environment to be in control to be considered safe. Innocent until proven guilty. Not predetermined emotional responses to what we believe happened. Any doubt means innocent by law.
Yo man... I'm not on here to be argumentative about anyone's opinion... but you let someone grind their knee in your neck with all of their weight for nearly 10 minutes, and you tell me what the outcome will possibly be.
Officers & Paramedics carry Narcan for overdose. Neither used it. The ER Doctor testified he found no symptoms of overdose. Expert Dr Tobin testified death was due to asphyxia from obstructed airway & the position he was placed in decreasing lung capacity to 50% less than normal. The Forensic Toxicologist testified the drugs levels found were too low to cause overdose. His Chief ,his Trainer & Supervisor all testified he breached training & Code of Conduct due to: 1. Excessive force 2. Incorrect restraint technique 3. Failing to stop restraint once subdued 4. Failing to start CPR as soon as unresponsive Regardless of addiction or existing health issues, there is also a legal 'Duty of Care' for detainee health & safety which these 4 actions also breached. The hostile crowd angle is ridiculous, Chauvin is so relaxed he has one hand in his pocket: for the whole 9 minutes. He also ignored Officer Lane asking to turn Floyd on his side & carried on kneeling for 2.6 mins after Floyd was already deceased , as pointed out by the 9 bystanders. I don't call 9 people from age 9 to mid 4O's, asking you to stop , a 'hostile crowd' .
If Mr. Loyd had been given medical aid the “crowd” probably would be calling out “Bravo” to the officers 👮♀️! They would have absolutely NO reason to call out to them to STOP 🛑 using force especially by a knee on the neck!
No he didn't. He choose to kill him instead. He chose to do it for over 9 whole minutes. EVERYONE has been witness to this murder by just watching TV !
@@SandraMontano-si3uf There was no murder. There was an overdose death while resisting a legitimate arrest. Thank god he didn't drive off in his car killing some kids in the street with his car, because he was high off his mind.
@@georgiemartin6236 that is entirely what this case will depend on. However the EMT and the medical examiner said they thought it looked like an overdose. And in all likelihood it was an overdose. Up to a jury to decide. So far I think the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt is not attainable in this case as I think there is a lot of doubt.
Two things. One, I hate how they are trying to use the drug thing, but on drugs, he was alive walking and sitting where the officers asked. He looked nowhere near dying. So cut the crap. Secondly, they are so fearful of this crowd of spectators. Well your honor, the crowd became that huge because all of those people saw George being mistreated! If everything was normal, that dispatch ladt, wouldn't have called a supervisor to go there. They are doing alot to save Chauvin's butt, however, he's at fault. Did Derek even look at the fake $20? To see if the story was correct. Because to me, George looked surprised of these allegations. That's why he's like what, huh, where are you taking me, and no. Anyone would refuse to go to jail for something they aren't aware of. So you choke him and make him listen huh? So much that you killed him, trying to blame drugs after everyone said, he was supposed to be on his side not stomach after a length of time, which you exceeded. I'm glad that I wasn't there. I would've threw a rock at Derek since he had check out mentally, with blank eyes during the murder. Which he caused. Those other officers should have pushed him off and they didn't. They knew training wasn't like that. I think that Derek is a psychopath. Like Chris Watts. They hide behind good jobs and nice families but they are crazy. Like, was molested as children or something and have manly careers to overcompensate probably. I bet Derek has killed an animal before. He treated George less than human. Derek believes his own lies. He's convinced himself that he did nothing wrong and he want us to believe him too. I saw the tape and the police were at fault. Derek killed George and the others helped.
@@SeanChYT not really lol, Nelson is blaming innocent bystanders for no reason, the bystanders had nothing to do with George Floyd's death at all, and trying to blame drugs, when we have the medical examiner's reports saying otherwise, he's grasping at straws to say the least. At least he's trying his best.
I can’t even watch this stuff anymore. It’s just too upsetting to watch Eric Nelson try to spin what happened as anything other than intent driven murder. Chauvin killed this guy because he wanted to and he could. That’s it. It’s very distressing to watch the defense try to spin it in some other way like it was the crowds fault or something. How can you even argue that Chauvin didn’t realize he was killing someone because he was distracted by the crowd if the crowd was only there to explicitly verbalize over and over that he was murdering this man!? Just a ridiculous argument!
You feel this way because you are overly emotional and ignorant to perhaps even unable to hear the facts in the case that could possibly challenge your left media pre conceived notions of what happened.
@@TeePowFauvel I couldn’t agree more. I’ve had arguments with people over exactly that; whether he decided to kill Floyd then and there WHICH ABSOLUTELY COUNTS AS INTENT DRIVEN MURDER! This idea a human being can’t quickly come up with a plan to murder someone on the spot is RIDICULOUS! He absolutely did! ITS SO OBVIOUS! There was LITERALLY THIRTEEN PEOPLE screaming at him “you’re killing him You’re killing him!” and you’re gonna try to tell me that Chauvin didn’t understand what we was doing? Such NONSENSE!!
@@Duracell231 Well... The facts aren't in the defense's side. They keep being general instead of specific to this case. This can turn off a jury. They want to know about THIS case specifically. At this point on cross the defense hasn't established sufficient doubt, if at all, to the causal or moral responsibility of the officer in relation to the deceased. They're also using a lot of "possible" alternative explanations but no plausible ones whereas the prosecution is specifically ruling out alternatives. That plus the fact that in Minnesota they don't need to prove intent for 2nd degree murder( the actual charge is second degree unintentional murder) they just need to establish intent to do harm which is felony assault where a person died afterwards leads me ro believe, unless the defense does something outrageous, that prosecution will win whereby the state will argue that bc the crime occurred infront of minors he should receive more than the minimum sentence. Not sure about the other officers though.

All credible witnesses and evidence so compelling and yet Derek Chauvin shows no remorse. He continues taking note like being in a university lecture hall. I want to know what he's written and what's for. Please give me your opinion. Thank you.
Manslaughter or hung jury, I don't see an acquittal in this case. So far, I'm leaning towards manslaughter. Not only is he responsible for what he did, he is also responsible for what he failed to do. 2nd and 3rd degree murder is heavier burden for the prosecution. Just my personal view.
All officers involved should also be charged under title 18 USC section 241 conspiracy against rights and title 18 USC section 242 deprivation of rights under color of law they should all be put to death set a example for all law enforcement.
The prosecutor is so overly boisterous that he comes across as really creepy and not very credible. If I were on the jury I would already have a bias against him.

Elias. Your grandma, bless her, was being too kind to chauvin. As a 77 year old woman, I know she's right about men not wanting to be told what to do by ANY woman. However, even men DO have the ability to overcome their ego challenges in order not to kill someone.
Wow. Your grandma made an interesting point.
@@helenhunter4540 helen, YOU HAVE NO IDEA how much power cute girls have over us men.
Look around you. The whole of human progress was fueled by mans desire for the affection of cute girls.
If that affection was a given, men would be content in sitting around and getting fat, but we have to earn that affection.
Heck, look at Elon Musk. That dork started a rocket ship company to impress the ladies and he has Grimes!
Lol
Yes so can we finally acknowledge that nobody was helping George Floyd in everybody that was their contributed to his death
The officers said 'he's talking fine', but when he wasn't responsive, the only one who's behaviour changed was Lane, who was stupid to believe Chauvin's throw away lies, and didn't have the courage to intervene.
Is that the officer that don't you think you need to get up and dude was like he ok?
@@keeshakhan7136 Lane is the officer who was concerned, and asked Chauvin if they should roll Floyd over, but obviously, that's not good enough, it was reasonable to expect him to try to stop Chauvin and Kueng, and by holding Floyd's legs down, even if he wasn't directly lowering Floyd's oxygen level as Chauvin and Kueng were, he was an indirect part of the oxygen deficiency because he held his legs down.
@@jonnyarmstrong6563 ok I remember reading or hearing about that. Thanks.
And Lane had only been on the job 4 days.
@@maryb6672 Kueng was also very inexperienced, but in my opinion, that shouldn't get them any leniency, what was needed didn't require any police experience, the bystanders would have got Chauvin off Floyd if they could, but Thao stopped them. It's a joke that Lane's lawyer is assigning more responsibility to the witnesses than to his client.
I wouldn't want this lawyer defending me . Right, correct you would agree with me as soon as possible. Didn't know if the vehicle was on or off. Asking inane questions. Would you agree with me?
Is the lady sat behind Nelson and Chauvin part of the defense team?
Yes
@@Elizabeth.C.Holmes thank you ☺️
@@cathbooth1980 Welcome!
It looks like they hired someone to transcribe the court case similar to the court reporter. Which makes it even weirder that the defendant is still taking notes. Shows that he’s a control freak.
@@friendlytester6861 haha, yea I wonder what he’s writing??
I had a quick Google and apparently Nelsons assistant is fully qualified yet lacks court experience...
The prosecution should have asked George was resisting the officers
At any point did any of the “officers” perform CPR when GEORGE FLOYD was immobile? Did I miss it at some point?
Absolutely not.
No. In fact Derek kept applying pressure on his neck and back, while on his stomach.
Stop talking all those lies, there is enough evil already...
No. You didn’t miss it. It never happened.
No they did not.
We still need to hear from Morris/Maurice and Shawanda!!!
Those two make me vomit ;(
Katherine Mooney. Why do we need to hear from them?
Maurice actual had felony warrants and a bunch of other charges that day and gave a fake name to cops. They would incriminate theirselves. He had and took the option to plead the 5th.
@@helenhunter4540 They can explain why George Floyd ended up dead.
Shawanda 🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂
Swearing in at 7:30
Questioning commences 8:39
Why is she back on we just seen this testimony
I keep on pressing F5 and she keeps repeating her testimony. So weird.
She was a great witness
A crowd that wanted him to perform medical attention... _prevented_ him from performing medical attention?
....
K.
@Alpha Q CDA 230 How so?
@Alpha Q CDA 230 how so? Do explain please
@Alpha Q CDA 230 ... You mean when he was on the ground?
Yes exactly. .
How is this hard to understand? Why dont doctors allow family members to sit in with them when they are performing life saving emergency services??
Why is Derek allowed to listen to the side bar?
It's HIS trial and the law permits defendants to be part of sidebars in MN.
I agree. Never seen a defendant part of sidebar. I thought maybe he was muting it. But don’t know about Minnesota law.
Dude, I swear i ask that same question everytime i see him grab his headphones to chime in. The judge has yet to say anything to him.
Well its called the law which apparently alot of people are not familiar with
It’s only done that way so the jury does not hear. He has the right to hear it. It’s his case.
It's on in other sites
why showing jim carrey photo?
I can tell the second guy didn’t do his part of the presentation lmao
Beautiful eyes
EMT sure has advanced, seems you can be a medical trainer and addiction specialist if you do know how to put a band aid on. The woman standing in the crowd is an EMT and she wasn't allowed to help. She didn't jog Chauvin's memory on this training that's for sure.
moving right along...
In the future, they switch out the dumb and dumber portion of the training and just show the video with Chauvin instead.
Genevieve Hansen should really feel like a nut after seeing Real professionals testify!!
Why is that?
Yes I watched the entire testimony twice. That's why I am inquiring as to what makes you think she is a nut?
She’s not a nut. She was there. She is a first responder. She saw a man dying. She was genuinely upset and understood what was happening. And she didn’t testify as an expert. Pay attention.
@@lizziem6640 In a crisis situation the worst thing you can do is to get upset. She claims she acted like a professional, while nothing could be further from the truth. Try listening to an airline pilot on the radio during an emergency. They are calm and focused on solving the problem, not crying and resorting to emotions. The opposite of Genevieve.
A nut?! She IS A PROFESSIONAL. she was off duty.
I’ve tried to catch up on these testimonies, but I have an honest question. Has any witness given a statement that would seem to support the defendant? Other than Arizona Girl doing a poor job as a witness, has anyone really gone to defend Derek? Seems that even his department hasn’t stood behind their former officer.
These are the states witnesses. Once the state rests, the defence will be able to call their witnesses. I'm guessing they will call on character testimony witnesses.
No. The Chief, his Trainer & his Supervisor testified he breached Code of Conduct & training by:
1. Excessive force used
2. Incorrect restraint technique used
3. Failure to stop restraint once subdued
4. Failure to start CPR as soon as unresponsive
Regardless of addiction or existing health issues there is also a legal 'Duty of Care' for detainee health & safety that these 4 actions also breached.
The Forensic Toxicologist testified Floyd's drug levels were too low for overdose. The ER Doctor testified he found no symptoms of overdose. Officers & Paramedics carry Narcan for overdose. It's the 'gold standard' in overdose care. Neither used it.
After watching several days of testimony by veteran and seasoned officers, and medical professionals, I find this witness odd. She's only been on the force for six years, her degrees are in human resources and business, she's only an EMT ... and yet she's training other officers on these matters.
I would have an EMS Training Officer (Veteran Paramedic) at least, or a CEN (Certified Emergency Nurse) with a Critical Care background.
He couldve died of overdose that day & looked like asleep or passed out from drugs...but when he quit raising cain & incessant yelling, sqirming & ranting, i think they should have backed off of him. A sign something was wrong. Has to be beyond shadow of doubt. Think defense lawyer is winning.
He killed that man
I still believe Derrick Chauvin needs to go straight to jail. In the Monopoly game don't pass go; go straight to Jail.
Could you articulate more why you desire this outcome?
Don't ever be on a jury. You need to weigh the facts and the Maurice Hall guy who was in the car with him knows the drug angle too well. The state hasn't granted him immunity, so that is unfair to Chauvin. Hall is a petty criminal, and too deserves a fair trial, but when a guy is facing 40 years behind bars, Morries needs to come clean.
But Jacqueline,
Just because squishing people kills can kill people and he died while three people were squishing him does NOT mean that he died because there were three men squishing him.
He could have died from an undetectable panic attack that we call excited delirium.
I think the guy deserves a raise, relocation & Identity change. Having to go through all this over a guy who killed himself over drugs.
@@kevind1980
George floyd did drugs
Chauvin murdered a defenseless man in cold blood
Which of those is a worse crime?
Nelson is grasping at straws, trying to blame the bystanders that wanted to help , Officer lollipop Guild was the one goading the few bystanders... just a case of 'another day another dollar' for these cowboys.. no care for life. Potential police officers should stand a test with Peter Hyatt before being accepted in the service.
Why care for a life that even the person it belonged to didn't care for? Some people need to learn resisting arrest can/will make you a winner of the Room Temperature Challenge.
@@kevind1980 alot of people in this world have no self worth & struggle everyday to survive. Including alcoholism, drug use, and just general mental health issues that manifest over a lifetime.
People are overly reacting emotionally to the situation. The burden is on the state to prove guilt, beyond any reasonable doubt, that his actions caused his death.
Reasonable doubt could include overdose, inability to render ems or cpr because the situation (including the bystanders growing more volitile) was not safe to do so, not just because the suspect was compliant or unresponsive. It requires both the state of the suspect AND the environment to be in control to be considered safe.
Innocent until proven guilty. Not predetermined emotional responses to what we believe happened. Any doubt means innocent by law.
Yo man... I'm not on here to be argumentative about anyone's opinion... but you let someone grind their knee in your neck with all of their weight for nearly 10 minutes, and you tell me what the outcome will possibly be.
Fool
@@adriandennard7480 His opinion is invalid
Officers & Paramedics carry Narcan for overdose. Neither used it. The ER Doctor testified he found no symptoms of overdose. Expert Dr Tobin testified death was due to asphyxia from obstructed airway & the position he was placed in decreasing lung capacity to 50% less than normal. The Forensic Toxicologist testified the drugs levels found were too low to cause overdose. His Chief ,his Trainer & Supervisor all testified he breached training & Code of Conduct due to:
1. Excessive force
2. Incorrect restraint technique
3. Failing to stop restraint once subdued
4. Failing to start CPR as soon as unresponsive
Regardless of addiction or existing health issues, there is also a legal 'Duty of Care' for detainee health & safety which these 4 actions also breached. The hostile crowd angle is ridiculous, Chauvin is so relaxed he has one hand in his pocket: for the whole 9 minutes. He also ignored Officer Lane asking to turn Floyd on his side & carried on kneeling for 2.6 mins after Floyd was already deceased , as pointed out by the 9 bystanders. I don't call 9 people from age 9 to mid 4O's, asking you to stop , a 'hostile crowd' .
She reminds me of Kaitlyn Bristow!

@@Brotha00 wow...for real?
If Mr. Loyd had been given medical aid the “crowd” probably would be calling out “Bravo” to the officers 👮♀️! They would have absolutely NO reason to call out to them to STOP 🛑 using force especially by a knee on the neck!
Exactly! De-escalation, which is an important training that uniformed professionals take before they’re out in the field.
@@taylorellison2719 go ahead and give that try. De escalation, at this particular scene was not going to happen, be real.

No he didn't. He choose to kill him instead. He chose to do it for over 9 whole minutes. EVERYONE has been witness to this murder by just watching TV !
@@SandraMontano-si3uf There was no murder. There was an overdose death while resisting a legitimate arrest. Thank god he didn't drive off in his car killing some kids in the street with his car, because he was high off his mind.
Not safe to do so. Environment was too volition. Proven by the fact that the EMTs didn’t even treat on site either.
@@brentnelson1590 wasn't he already dead so by the time the EMTs?
@@georgiemartin6236 that is entirely what this case will depend on. However the EMT and the medical examiner said they thought it looked like an overdose. And in all likelihood it was an overdose. Up to a jury to decide. So far I think the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt is not attainable in this case as I think there is a lot of doubt.
Two things. One, I hate how they are trying to use the drug thing, but on drugs, he was alive walking and sitting where the officers asked. He looked nowhere near dying. So cut the crap.
Secondly, they are so fearful of this crowd of spectators. Well your honor, the crowd became that huge because all of those people saw George being mistreated! If everything was normal, that dispatch ladt, wouldn't have called a supervisor to go there. They are doing alot to save Chauvin's butt, however, he's at fault.
Did Derek even look at the fake $20? To see if the story was correct. Because to me, George looked surprised of these allegations. That's why he's like what, huh, where are you taking me, and no. Anyone would refuse to go to jail for something they aren't aware of. So you choke him and make him listen huh? So much that you killed him, trying to blame drugs after everyone said, he was supposed to be on his side not stomach after a length of time, which you exceeded.
I'm glad that I wasn't there. I would've threw a rock at Derek since he had check out mentally, with blank eyes during the murder. Which he caused. Those other officers should have pushed him off and they didn't. They knew training wasn't like that.
I think that Derek is a psychopath. Like Chris Watts. They hide behind good jobs and nice families but they are crazy. Like, was molested as children or something and have manly careers to overcompensate probably. I bet Derek has killed an animal before. He treated George less than human. Derek believes his own lies. He's convinced himself that he did nothing wrong and he want us to believe him too. I saw the tape and the police were at fault. Derek killed George and the others helped.
It's called the defense for a reason. They're going to bring up anything that might cast doubt on the charges, you know, because they're the defense.
@@K26650 and the defense is failing hard lol, blaming bystanders and drugs isn't helping Chauvin whatsoever lol
He was close to dying in the hospital of an overdose just weeks earlier. Are you not paying attention?
@@ivanperez5354 The defense is crushing it. Not guilty.
@@SeanChYT not really lol, Nelson is blaming innocent bystanders for no reason, the bystanders had nothing to do with George Floyd's death at all, and trying to blame drugs, when we have the medical examiner's reports saying otherwise, he's grasping at straws to say the least. At least he's trying his best.
I can’t even watch this stuff anymore. It’s just too upsetting to watch Eric Nelson try to spin what happened as anything other than intent driven murder. Chauvin killed this guy because he wanted to and he could. That’s it. It’s very distressing to watch the defense try to spin it in some other way like it was the crowds fault or something. How can you even argue that Chauvin didn’t realize he was killing someone because he was distracted by the crowd if the crowd was only there to explicitly verbalize over and over that he was murdering this man!? Just a ridiculous argument!
Yeah, we should just let you decide the verdict 🤦🏻♂️
You feel this way because you are overly emotional and ignorant to perhaps even unable to hear the facts in the case that could possibly challenge your left media pre conceived notions of what happened.
Often the defence lawyer is as dodgie as the folk who they are representing.
So glad he was convicted bit he should have got 1st degree because he quite clearly arrived at the Scene to kill
@@TeePowFauvel
I couldn’t agree more. I’ve had arguments with people over exactly that; whether he decided to kill Floyd then and there WHICH ABSOLUTELY COUNTS AS INTENT DRIVEN MURDER! This idea a human being can’t quickly come up with a plan to murder someone on the spot is RIDICULOUS! He absolutely did! ITS SO OBVIOUS!
There was LITERALLY THIRTEEN PEOPLE screaming at him “you’re killing him You’re killing him!” and you’re gonna try to tell me that Chauvin didn’t understand what we was doing? Such NONSENSE!!

@@BenReillySpydr1962 Lets see :)
@@Duracell231 Sure. See you back here in a few weeks.
@@BenReillySpydr1962 What is your guess?
@@Duracell231 Well... The facts aren't in the defense's side. They keep being general instead of specific to this case. This can turn off a jury. They want to know about THIS case specifically. At this point on cross the defense hasn't established sufficient doubt, if at all, to the causal or moral responsibility of the officer in relation to the deceased. They're also using a lot of "possible" alternative explanations but no plausible ones whereas the prosecution is specifically ruling out alternatives. That plus the fact that in Minnesota they don't need to prove intent for 2nd degree murder( the actual charge is second degree unintentional murder) they just need to establish intent to do harm which is felony assault where a person died afterwards leads me ro believe, unless the defense does something outrageous, that prosecution will win whereby the state will argue that bc the crime occurred infront of minors he should receive more than the minimum sentence.
Not sure about the other officers though.
Defence consistently seemed ill prepared addressing witnesses, shuffuling papers, repeat questions etc.

1.) The defendant has no shortage of lawyers
2.) The defendant has a decent pool of money exceeding millons of dollars

4.) His defense team has the option to use multiple lawyers for the case in cross like the state does but opted not to

Manslaughter or hung jury, I don't see an acquittal in this case. So far, I'm leaning towards manslaughter. Not only is he responsible for what he did, he is also responsible for what he failed to do.
2nd and 3rd degree murder is heavier burden for the prosecution. Just my personal view.
Murder clear as day
All officers involved should also be charged under title 18 USC section 241 conspiracy against rights and title 18 USC section 242 deprivation of rights under color of law they should all be put to death set a example for all law enforcement.
The prosecutor is so overly boisterous that he comes across as really creepy and not very credible. If I were on the jury I would already have a bias against him. This witness is very prepared to the point of being coached imho. By the way officers don’t conduct first aid with 15 people standing there yelling and threatening you. Sooooo waste of time.
