    If kneeling on the neck was part of the police procedure for subduing a crazed drug addict then not guilty. Since Floyd didn't have his carotid artery cut off, then Chauvin didn't cause the death. Floyd couldn't breathe because of the lethal dose of fentanyl. No way this rises to without reasonable doubt standard. When intending to kill someone, you usually don't call for an ambulance before you kill them.

    You can't discount the fear factor of the jury or even the make up of it as the OJ trial showed. Some didn't want the city to burn again others wanted to punish the LAPD

    We already have reports of people being scared to be on this jury. I like the prosecution in this one
    Prosecution wins if you get a jury that is willing to ignore evidence in order to get a conviction.
    I see it as a reverse OJ

    The prosecution are the "good guys" in this one
    As Johnnie Cochran said prior to jury selection, if he could get a single black person on the jury he could get a hung trial. Can you imagine the pressure to convict that will be put on all jurors but especially any black juror in this trial?
    This will be a majority black jury.

    Cook it.

    A venue change in this case was a no brainer. The fact that there wasn't shows the fix is in. Still only takes one juror to man up.

    If it's moved to Duluth, they'll cry racism

    He did exactly what the department policy said to do. It's how they were trained. It's not a procedure I had ever heard of but you can look up the policy yourselves. Most departments policies are posted on their websites. If he is convicted it is an absolute bunch of bullshit.
