yeah, Don't think there was any other cop the jury. If I recall at least one of the people had admitted they had been going to the Floyd Shrine to pray.
Chauvin was stupid for not waiving a jury and having the judge decide. A jury was guaranteed to convict on everything. They could have charged him with masterminding the Holocaust and they'd have found him guilty. The judge would have convicted on manslaughter and maybe murder 3, but definitely not murder 2.
Difference might be the difference between dying in prison or not.
Guess he decided to go with a jury and hope their bias and fuckups save him on appeal, but that's unlikely.
You know the original Jury trials were actually made up of your real peers - people from the same village.
People on the jury would literally think "There's no way that Peter killed his wife".
Or "Yeah, stealing chickens is definitely something John would do".
I'm not terribly sure it was a good idea to go away from that, but I suppose it only works in the village scale.
Ya know what these nitwit lefties don't understand....is that we have police officers so that mobs don't lynch criminals. I think all police should leave blue Democrat run cities. Let them defund the police and try community policing (as if that's never been tried anywhere before). The sooner all the conservatives leave these cities, the better.
Doesn’t seem like a public trial if the court has to hide the jury. Clearly a sign right off the bat that the court fears it won’t be able to safeguard the jurors.
Turns out this trial was a trial by all 3.
When the mob, media, and tyrant are all on the same page...
People always forget about the most important context... which is the part about PEERS. Jury of YOUR PEERS.

Gotta have joggers because reasons
You know those joggers would've leaked your name and description to the mob if you into bat for Derek in the jury room.
No 12 Angry Men scenario in that jury room.
I know

There's definitely room for appeal.
The FUCKING (P)RESIDENT COMMITTED SUB JUDICE.
He already had agreed to a plea that would have given him ten years but the wife beater antifa DNC treasurer Ellison wouldn't accept it.
Tbf knowing know justice works he will get a normal sounding sentence to keep people happy and still be in prison for the same amount of time.
If this isn't a mis-trial, I don't know what is.

What about a good ol’ fashioned Trial-by-Combat?

If you are a police officer and you didn't have blue flu today you probably ate paint chips as a kid.
Police testified against him. He was not liked.
Here’s a weird thing I just realized:
the jury was hidden the whole time
Has that happened before?

Hidden to TV viewers? Yes always.
