I was listening to NPR when they did a story on how contentious the jury selection was. This is going to be a tough case to convict IMO.

IMO, this is the 2nd chapter of the U.S playbook when it comes to the Police and racism. As we saw in the L.A.P.D case that caused the 92 riots, they get off with little to no jail time.

I still think the other officers should be charged with the same crime in the Floyd death. Chauvin may have been the tool but the complicity from the others on scene was equally murderous IMO.
