One of the investigating agents (into Floyd’s death), just confirmed on the stand that Chauvin is 5’9” 140lbs. There are super-models who aren’t much lighter than that. I don’t think I’ve weighed 140-lbs since 8th or 9th-grade. It wouldn’t be unreasonable to describe Chauvin as a petite, even diminutive man.
George from weighed (I believe) 100-lbs more and yet the prosecution would have people believe that he died because Chauvin had one knee on Floyd’s back. It’s nuts.
I have faith in the jury system...mostly. I don’t think they’re going to get a unanimous verdict to convict. But, it’s also hard to believe that jury is going to arrive at a unanimous vote to acquit.
Will they keep trying him or will they cut their losses? Plus, the Feds can take a crack, as well. We could be having Chauvin trials during the next presidential election, easily.
