If you think last week's rioting, looting, and accompanying celebration was a big deal? Wait until the cops are found not guilty.
The prosecutor made a mistake in overcharging to appease the ethnics. Charging 2nd degree murder with a option of manslaughter may be a little harsh considering the evidence. Chauvin was clearly guilty of a serious assault or criminal negligence causing death but to make the leap to homicide might be taxing jurors credibility.
Why? Chauvin had his knee on the back of Floyd's neck, not in a position of strangulation. This is way too obvious from the video. The coroner said the cause of death was heart attack. What's a major symptom of heart attack? Shortness of breath. I will testify to that. The prosecutor has to go into court and tell the juror to ignore what they are seeing and to ignore the coroner's report and believe a narrative because he says so. Good luck on that one.
