I feel like just with woman cop (though way more for her) manslaughter is like.... a grey area but whatever sure I could see it.
With Potter manslaughter's a given I think. Negligence is pretty much exactly what that was. I don't think Potter was malicious or depraved in that scenario, which would be the grounds required for one of the murder charges, but doing something stupid like firing a pistol when by all appearances you intended to use a taser (and you made this screwup because you failed to train sufficiently to know to pull the taser instead of the firearm, or you panicked and same result) is negligent.

At least take a stance, cowards.
That's not what they do, though. Redditors don't take a stance, they just follow whatever the governing forces of the world tell them too, it's why they get excited over politicians that've held power for decades as "fresh", consoooom whatever marvel funko pop shit they're told, list goes on. narrative is to fawn over prosecution and hate chauvin so they do, if the narrative flipped so would they

it's a feedback loop, reddit is an echo chamber so it brings in sheeple that like hearing the same opinion, so it becomes more of an echo chamber, and on and on until you're banned for 'conspiracy theories' about saying the evidence the defense just presented. just like I'm a dumb retard who would go miles out of my way to say nigger online (nigger, btw) and end up here, retards that have no mind but to follow end up on reddit.
 
think this concern is overblown

minnesota is full of descendant scandinavians who are the most autistic people on the planet, if there's any group of people you can expect to be extreme sticklers to legal procedure and rules, it's them
I'm going to assume you're being sarcastic here or you've never interacted with certain types of Minnesotan before.
 
Is anyone on Reddit ok?

your're assuming their all white, IIRC theres only 1 white man and 1 white woman on that jury
 
Not sure if I saw a post of what exactly Tobin said that made people believe it could cause a mistrial, so here it is in words from here. AFB is the author/lawyer on the blog

edit: added a pic and wording 4 clarity

second edit: Adding what Tobin was and was not allowed to discuss. The prosecution "happened" upon tests results of CO in Floyd's blood last night. They wanted to introduce this evidence today. Ultimately the judge denied this but allowed Tobin to speak on other things as a rebuttal. This was before the jury was in, so jury is unaware of CO lab results. Therefore, the test results cannot be brought up in front of the jury.

I have a feeling that Nelson brought Dr. Fowler as an expert witness to testify on the possibility of CO being a factor just so they can get the prosecution to call back Dr. Tobin and admit there was 98% Oxygen saturation in Floyd's blood. Which would negate the narrative that Chauvin died due to asphyxia, right?

If so, and if this leads to a verdict of not guilty, this was masterful work on the part of Nelson.
