The cops are authoritarians who prey on out groups. LGBTQ have always been othered. Ergo...Cornell University

Are people still watching the trial? I’ve only been following the news and headlines. From those, it looks like all of the senior MPD officers are have found the ink blot in the Thin Blue Line and it was Chauvin."The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." George Orwell, 1984
"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

His defense is fine from what I have read. He doesn't have much to work with so all he can do is go after credibility and "being a cop is hard". That won't play well but he has to try.
Chauvin is gonna go down hard unless the jury is asleep."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

I think a more interesting question will be answered later, when we see whether the cops that have testified against Chauvin are willing to also do so against the other three.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

It sounds like the entire defense is going to depend upon the medical testimony as to whether the lack of oxygen to the brain was triggered by Chauvin's actions or the drugs in Floyd's system, and what can the defense get the jury to believe.
If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

I mean the lawyer has to try. He can't just stand up and say "yeah...he did it lock him up!".
I honestly think as soon as Chauvin is convicted you will see the other three plead out..."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

After watching Law & Order on repeat for what seems like ever, my question to the defense attorney would be "Let's say he had drugs in his system (or whatever nonsense he was saying caused his death), why didn't you help him to ensure he would go to trial and rot in jail?" Isn't that depraved indifference? Even if Floyd was guilty and a drug addict, Chauvin and his merry band of idiots did NOTHING to help him.

I dont think I have ever met a lawyer who would say that. They might say his team were a bunch of jerks but they created reasonable doubt out of thin air. I mean most White People don't get a defense that works that well...
Methinks the lawyers you know are jealous ;^)"It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

I'd also be curious to know what uno's wife thinks. Perhaps she doesn't care enough to voice an opinion. I certainly know lawyers who feel that way.
