Actually if Floyd died from drugs while Chauvin had his knee on Floyds neck, there would have been no need for Chauvin to restrain Floyd. Someone OD'ing on fentanyl would have been near comatose long before Chauvin put Floyd on the ground.
The crowd complained the officer was killing Floyd, not that he was comatose. The entire defense was based on Floyd struggling, which someone OD'ing on fentanyl would be incapable of minutes before dying.That was what the bystanders were complaining about.
The autopsy report ruled that Floyd died from a drug overdose. How you get a murder charge let alone conviction for Chauvin is inexplicable.
Name a few.My point is that jury intimidation would have ended at second degree manslaughter. They wouldn't have let their fears push them beyond all justification.So your take is the jury was not intimidated ? I dont believe you .
This isn't the first time riots surrounded a criminal case, and never before have they had an impact on the jury.
And if you have a job, you do it.The prosecution witnesses were not paid to be there.Consultants get paid. Anything new?You know that Dr. Fowler was PAID to say what he said.
Their motivation wasn't money.
Bingo and he said it was cowardice. He also calls me “big nose” LOL. Why? Cause I am Jewish. His posts have a lot of anti Jewish rhetoric. Search for yourself and see. Yep that’s your fellow Democrat.If you had a family member that would have influenced your ability to be a member of the jury, you would have answered that or brought it up voir dire.Read for yourself. I said I would not be able to fairly judge Chauvin because I would not want to put my daughters in jeopardy. He called that cowardice. You be the judge, leftist.

He should have said it would have been your lying to the lawyers questioning prospective jurors.Bingo and he said it was cowardice.

Read the questionnaire jurors have to answer. Any potential juror who already made up their mind was excluded. Or in legal terms excused for cause.Correct, which simply means the only people willing to be a juror were those who's minds were already made up before they participated in the trial.
I think jurors fears developed as the trial moved along. They are not in a vacumn
Any warnings about resisting arrest?I think jurors fears developed as the trial moved along. They are not in a vacumn

The protests began in Minneapolis on May 26, 2020, the day after George Floyd, an African-American man, was killed during a police arrest. On June 6, an estimated half a million people joined protests in 550 places across the country.
Actually the opposite, as the alternate juror explained.The mob ruled over those jurors.
Sad.

See moron, in reality the appeals court judge must decide based on facts and evidence. Not your constant threats of violence if you don’t get your way. And there are too many factors in Chauvin’s favor for the appeals court to NOT send this back for a re-do. Not sequestering the jury, not changing venue, thank Maxine for her idiocy that may well clinch it for Chauvin..I expect the State Attorney to offer a plea when the Appeals Court orders a new trial. I don't think they State wants to deal with the expense of a new trial, stress on the family of the victim, or worry of more riots and insurrections by the Dems
Do you think there is an appeals judge who wants to be the most hated man in America by giving Chauvin a new trial?
There isn't.
Here's what's going to happen. He's going to get a sentence, and then the prison system will declare him reformed after serving half his term, because prisons don't like guarding ex-cops from the other prisoners.
Actually you are wrong---a mistrial can be declared after a verdict if the judge becomes aware of jury tampering------Mistrial? The trial is over. There is no mistrial possible. Perhaps you are thinking about an appeal instead?Obviously this is going to mistrial and because of political pressure retrial.One juror: "I did not want to go through rioting and destruction again and I was concerned about people coming to my house if they were not happy with the verdict."
Appeal on the way.
'I Didn't Want to Go Through the Rioting': Juror in Chauvin Trial Makes Stunning Admission over 'Guilty' Verdict - Becker News
On Tuesday, a jury found Derek Chauvin guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in a case that had sparked nationwide riots: The death of George Floyd. During the course of the trial, Judge Peter Cahill mentioned that the court case was getting...beckernews.com

The jurors had already been partially doxxed. Addresses, employers, etc. Questionable credibility? Chauvin’s witnesses at least spoke English fluently. So a bunch of paid “experts” who never looked at anything claimed murder and they knew “exactly when Floyd dies”. Bullshit. But you love it.Well, gee, thanks for telling me something I didn't know.
Let me correct you here: The jury felt threatened enough to find him guilty on all counts.
Why would they feel threatened? Nobody knows who they are, unless they come forward and give interviews.
Point was, the prosecution had that tape.
They had his superiors saying his actions were wrong.
They had medical experts saying he killed Floyd.
Chauvin had a bunch of paid-for witnesses of questionable credibility.
Tell the coroner he was wrong.Actually if Floyd died from drugs while Chauvin had his knee on Floyds neck, there would have been no need for Chauvin to restrain Floyd. Someone OD'ing on fentanyl would have been near comatose long before Chauvin put Floyd on the ground.The crowd complained the officer was killing Floyd, not that he was comatose. The entire defense was based on Floyd struggling, which someone OD'ing on fentanyl would be incapable of minutes before dying.That was what the bystanders were complaining about.

It cuts both ways. Someone sympathetic for Chauvin could have also lied in hopes causing a hung jury.And by your comment you are stating that if a potential juror had a hardon for Chauvin, they answered honestly? I bet you really believe that, don't you?
The only paid experts were bought by the defense.Chauvin’s witnesses at least spoke English fluently. So a bunch of paid “experts” who never looked at anything claimed murder and they knew “exactly when Floyd dies”. Bullshit. But you love it.
