Derek Chauvin trial

[NEO]

Cop will walk.

City will burn.

Democrats will call it peaceful protect.

Republicans will stay quiet and just shake their heads in disbelief.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Psaki says Biden believes ‘protests must be peaceful’ after Maxine Waters’ ‘confrontational’ comments

I don't think he walks, I thought there was a good case for reasonable doubt based on the facts as they were known. Defense wasn't very vigorous IMO. I think he's found guilty of lesser charges.

I don't think that will stop the riots though.

Anything short of the death penalty will not stop riots. Why miss a great opportunity to steal and destroy stuff?

This jury hasn't been sequestered and that's a problem. How could anyone avoid any news whatsoever when it's been on every imaginable medium for a month? He's going to be found guilty of something but everyone is right. There will be riots regardless.

 

[Volgolfer1618]

I hope he's innocent or gets a lesser charge. Im curious to see how much money soros will pay those protesters to destroy. I want see if they can get close the 100 billion mark in damage

IMO, the most to least likely outcome:
3rd degree murder
Manslaughter
Hung jury
Second degree murder
Acquitted on all charges

 

[Tastylicks]

I wouldn't call myself a Democrat but definitely not a Trump fan. However, that Waters lady should not be promoting that kind of protesting. She's race baiting and inciting violence. She should be censored.

Can a politician be removed from office for inciting a riot? just wondering

I am watching trial right now and the defense is doing a minute by minute walk through. I think he walks based on what I see today but I dont know the jurors.

I agree city burns either way and nba takes a stance of silence atleast.

I was a huge 35 year fan of the nba. I can't even watch it now. It's like watching a cnn and MSNBC pick up game anymore.

Hung jury.
Manslaughter.
Total acquittal.

He isn't getting murder 2 or 3 in my opinion.

 

[Tastylicks]

He will walk. Cops never get convicted

Yes

Yes

Oh okay. they let trump walk so I wasn't sure

 

[NEO]

Uh.......was trump in office?

I kinda remember a vote that went down later that day that elected a new president.

trump was president when he incited that riot, yes

 

[NEO]

A he didnt incite it.

B. You said removed from office and he was removed literally a hour later by a vote in Congress regarding the electoral college.

You can't remove someone twice.

I am responding to your exact post.

you got a lot to learn lol. Trump was never removed from office, his term ended.... on January 20th, 13 days after he incited that riot

 

[Tastylicks]

No they weren't. Isn't that crazy

 

[TennesseeFan07]

No they weren't. Isn't that crazy

I don't understand that one bit.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Me personally, I’ll be shocked if he’s found guilty on murder chargers.

But like one poster said, there will be riots either way. Small businesses better be on the lookout.

 

[hUTch2002]

The defense just killed the possibility of any murder charge. Reasonable doubt is in abundance here.

 

[hog88]

I don't understand that one bit.

IMO layman's opinion that's asking for any conviction being overturned.
