Well, he may be a cartoon villain.

But I hope the jurors will not think they know who he is from newspaper accounts.

My sense is that there's often a tendency among journalists to assume and to prejudge in order to enflame their readers. That's always good for sales but not for courts, so much.

Whereas for jurors, I always hope they will wait and listen and throw away cookie cutters. That's not to say the police person is not guilty. Only that he should not be condemned before he has been heard.

He knelt on him for over 9 minutes, without showing ANY emotion, that's depraved indifference.

Floyd wasn't aggressive, he was respectful when asking for MERCY, handcuffed, three other officers on the ready.

No ONE was in danger by Floyd, he was accused of passing a phony 20.00 bill!
The taxpayers paid the family $27 Million dollars for this killing...

What was in Chauvin's head? Sadistic SOB.
he has a history.
