  1. *There are some people who will believe Floyd died from overdose are same one’s who believe January 6 riot/ Insurrection was staged by black lives matter and Antifa*

    1. @B B *definition for facts, a thing that is known or proved to be true.*
      *definition for truth,the quality or state of being true*

    2. @ronnie nelso Thank you Mr. Webster. As for the trial- there is currently no fact. There were a series of events that happened and now there is a trial. Until the trial is concluded we don’t need people spewing opinion saying it’s fact or vice versa- people claiming the facts are opinions. Unless you are the judge, jury, or a prosecutor- Do not be claiming things are factual until the verdict has been reached. God bless.

  2. The Burden of proof is on the defense and the prosecution. Considering that the jury wasn’t there an neither was the Judge.

  3. Defense: “Floyd had high blood pressure, so he actually died from the cheeseburger he had earlier that day, not the actions of Chauvin.”
    Everyone: 😅😂🤣
    Defense: **collar tug**

    1. Had the most dangerous synthetic drug man has ever produced at a lethal level in his system……..nah he died cuz cop knee on neck.

    2. Joel rivard no, they don’t only need reasonable doubt. According to Minnesota state law, for second degree, the state has to prove that chauvin’s actions played a substantial role in Floyd’s death. That’s it. The state has more than proved their case. But, still, you never know with jurors…

  4. Bottom line is: would George be dead if Chauvin hadn’t kneeled on his neck?? I think the answer is pretty clear.

    1. @B Ruine he wouldn’t have been a danger to the public, he was having a panic attack. You are a paranoid little coward like Derek. Go hide somewhere little snowflake. Your idiotic takes are embarrassing.

    2. @B Ruine bullcrap. There was nothing reasonable about pinning down a handcuffed man that long who was in medical distress. You might make the argument to pin his legs, but even that is shaky.

    1. It’s absolutely nuts.. The have Chauvin on multiple videos, multiple angle and are still debating it.. Short of a mind reading recorder, I’m not sure what else they need.. Some criminals have gotten life sentences with MUCH less evidence.

  6. “Lynchpin” is spelled “linchpin” and it’s highly egregious and aggravating that you used the wrong spelling in a report about what was essentially a “lynching.”

    1. @Rus Buda According to the experts no. I’m guessing as you’re hanging around on YT you’re not an expert. Btw did you see Don Jr’s recent coked up post?

  7. I’m so sick of this trial…The cop killed him.
    If he didn’t want to be a killer he should of let Floyd lay there and die from the drugs

    1. GF wouldn’t have died frim drugs. My brother has been a full blow hard core junkie for 50 yrs and he’s still a junkie today. Lots n lots of drug users- me included :()

  8. I was a little worried after the medical examiner, Dr. Baker, testified. I worried that the prosecution had put Dr. Tobin on too soon, but I am okay now. Dr. Rich pulled everything back together.

  9. ABSOLUTELY!!! And I saw his facial expressions, so did the jury. I was crying with the dissection of the footage. His eloquent, rational and ACCURATE depictions of events. THIS HAPPENS EVERYDAY EVERYWHERE IN THIS COUNTRY. To anyone. LEO’S are hired without appropriate psychological screening by QUALIFIED PSYCHIATRIC PROFESSIONALS. Many lackBASIC COPING SKILLS AEB the extreme amount of personal domestic violence at the hands of LEO’S. DOMESTIC TERRORISTS??? Start with law enforcement reform. NOW!!!

  10. The Leo at mr Floyd’s legs.. His first week on the job. 3rd gen Leo. THE ONLY REASONABLE LEO ON SCENE.

  11. My opinion is that the prosecutor is doing great but the defense hasn’t done nothing to get Chavin off.
