Only 3 states have 3rd degree murder, hence all the confusion today. This Minnesota county just put away a cop for 12.5 years on a 3rd degree murder charge after he got "spooked" and shot a woman who walked up to the side of his car, the woman who had called them to come out in the first place. If that had been what happened here, the entire Twin Cities would be on fire right now.
My early prediction is that we're looking at 5-10 years for Chauvin. Not really getting my hopes up.
