Many just don’t get it. A courtroom is where emotion needs to be eliminated. It’s all about facts. And the veracity of witnesses needs to be weighed. And it is critical to put oneself in the shoes of the accused, regarding what a reasonable person would do under the same circumstances - when we know he did it, but must decide whether he was committing a crime when he did it, and if what he did resulted in the death.

For me this was open and shut once I saw the full body camera videos. I already had noticed in the very first videos that it appeared his knee was not only on his back, but not applying all that much pressue most of the time.

But, frankly, I just think the jury was scared. They really had no choice. If I were a cop, I’d never engage a black person. Those days are gone - until after the collapse.
