This case is much weaker than the Freddie Gray case in Baltimore a few years ago — and those cops all walked.

I’ve said for months now that a hung jury is likely to be the BEST the prosecution can hope for.

You might be right, but juries are emotional. There was no actual video of Freddy Gray dying while a cop leaned on his neck while Freddy begged him to let him up and a whole crowd of people were begging the cop to let him breathe.

This case may be weaker from an evidentiary view, but from an emotional view, Chauvin’s “I was just following procedure” defense is a big loser.

I think he’s going down. There’s no getting up from that video.
