Could be. Manslaughter 2 and 3 are specifically charged, but any lesser charge is automatically on the table in MN. I don't know what lesser charges that might include.
4 days of expert testimony later, lots of facts established now. I think murder can maybe be beat, but unintentional or negligent manslaughter may be hard. Did you see the testimony?
Defense hasn't had their turn to call any witnesses yet, we'll see ...
Defense established some really important things today though. Also, prosecution made no attempt to determine how much time GF's face was straight down vs off to the side. The side being vulnerable to airway blockage from knee
No way murder charges stick.

Today was a smashing success for the prosecution! I can't wait for the defense. Prosecution looked like shit until today!

Agreed... But the jurors probably aren't impartial or smart. For every foot the defense loses, they'll have to make up a mile.
