Jack Posobiec is an investigative reporter from One America News Network. He's been covering the Derek Chauvin jury selection giving live updates on Twitter. This is bad news. Also my thoughts are that since Minneapolis just gave George Floyd's family 27 million dollars today, I can't see now how Derek Chauvin can get a fair trial.

Lawyers strike prospective jurors all the time. Why is this an issue?
I sat through jury selection for a federal grand jury in January; wasn’t chosen. People were not selected for all kinds of reasons.

At least one prospective juror was honest and said he would fear for his and his family’s safety if he served as the names of the jurors would certainly be leaked and make them subject to harassment by BLM. He was dismissed.

One of the first times I got called for jury duty, it was for a grand jury. I was named foreman by the judge. We heard 125 cases that month and almost all cases were indictments, as the defendants are not represented by a lawyer. Every jury call I ever got after that, I was automatically excluded because of the grand jury foreman thing. Grand juries think every case involves a guilty party, thus if a defendant is on trial in a real court case, a former grand juror thinks the defendant must be guilty.
