It has been a matter of fact that they are innocent since a few months after. The prosecution has failed to prove its case. It's not a prosecution. It's a lynch mob. Their entire strategy consists of finding more people to take the stand and rattle their pitchfork.

There are a lot of people being armchair superheroes thinking they could have saved his life or they know better than the cops in this case.

The prosecution's arguments are ridiculous. That the cops should stand aside and let random members of the public "save him" or rather resist in his arrest.

Or that Chauvin has some kind of magical Vulcan death grip he can perform with his knee.

The whole case is nonsensical. You're seeing a man being publicly lynched for being white. There's no matter of opinion to it. The facts speak for themselves. The autopsy has been out the months, the videos, the transcripts.

Absolutely nothing untoward has happened other than the foul reaction of the crowd and this travesty of justice. This is a show trial.
