I thought Floyd and his girlfriend were “committed Christians” and he was in Minneapolis to do “mission work.”
I, uh, didn't exactly get that impression from her testimony. She did mention prayer at the beginning but the overall impression was that the relationship was based on certain more earthly concerns.
The prosecution is hitting the emotional aspect of this thing hard. They are getting all the witnesses to give fairly compelling testimony but it's all been based on their impressions of this, that or the other. The defense, at least at this point, just comes in and gets the witnesses to admit that their point of view is either based in incomplete knowledge or may not be the only valid point of view. My guess is that when the defense gets to call witnesses we're going to see a lot of facts and a whole lot less emotion.
