Guilty on all counts? Really?
Convicting him of manslaughter...OK...But, other charges? Ridiculous in my opinion...
I watched Mr. Chauvin being taken away by a deputy sheriff...His bail was revoked...Then I watched people celebrating on the street...I turned off TV...I don't think "justice" was done in this case...Not really...
I think some jurors will give interviews...Why not? They did what BLM people wanted...
I am sure the juries are aware of the threats and the judge’s note of potential mistrial. It wouldn’t surprise me that they opted for guilty to be done with it and let the courts sort it out, even by a future retrial. They go home without threat of violence to themselves or their families.
Sickening..i turned off the tv too..
Now they’ll all get book deals.
Maybe the jury went with overkill in terms of finding Chauvin guilty on all three counts as a kind of “F*ck You!” to the system, the press, politicians, BLM, or all of the above.
They felt they had no choice but to find him guilty of something to prevent riots, so they found him of guilty of everything to drive that point home.
Scott Adams suggested about a week ago that the jury should find Chauvin guilty and then come out with a statement that they felt Chauvin was not guilty based on the evidence but found him guilty only to save the lives of their families and to keep the Twin Cities from burning.
