Does anyone know whether I can see the cross examination of Williams from yesterday? Only got about a minute with ABC and then redirect today.
Jeez, apparently this shit has already seeped into my dreams. Cross examination hadn't started yet.

I don't see why people are finding him particularly credible. He often gives answers that are tangential to the question, or gives information that wasn't asked. He frequently places himself at the centre of his testimony inappropriately. He appears to be trying to make a name for himself imo, and I would question his credibility in terms of his ability to relay facts neutrally. IMO he only looks good because of that flaming disaster of a witness yesterday, though she actually struck me as more honest, if less reliable. I'm glad the defence is objecting to his non-responsive answers.

Thank ya @The Nameless One and @Extreme Aneurysm.

How long do these kind of trials last until the verdict? I'm not too familiar with how this works.

Hopefully he gets what he fucking deserved; a good long stay behind bars. We don't need cops on the force with one offense let alone seven.

Neglect of the citizenry by the state is unacceptable and it won't end until we gut the police unions, which isn't happening anytime soon.

How dare our cops be on the scene as a felon overdoses.

the state has no obligation to protect us, this has been codified by scotus.

She said she didn't remember Chauvin's name when asked about the picture of him, and also that she can't see him in the room. In her defence he's wearing a mask and also she's literally a 9 year old child.

It's a shame she's been dragged into this, anyone who has a functioning brain knows she wont be giving any crucial witness testimony, it's purely optics. Funny tho lmao

An honest question to the many and varied friends here - is there any other place outside of the United States that is not only openly terrorised by its own minorities, but with the blessing of the "Powers That Be" to boot? My own homeland is mostly ethnically homogenous, so I have no first-hand experiences on this topic.

Most of of Europe. Whites in most places are basically becoming a diaspora.

The UK, specifically England, Germany, and France to a lesser degree.
