Derek Chauvin Trial - Day 14 - LiveStream

I would say the State has been in touch with the Feds on how to proceed in the event of a Hung jury / mistrial.

Don't know if other's caught this but this examiner just said that in Feb 2021 he gave testimony to a Federal grand jury! What's up with that?

Yeah, that one witness said he had already testified with the Feds didn't he?

Three possibilities exist in the event of a hung jury...the State can retry the case, the State can dismiss charges, or the State can try a plea bargain.

Double jepardy doesn't come into play because any type of mistrial is considered that the first trial never happened at all.

If I were Chauvin, I would refuse a plea, unless it was a misdemeanor.

Finding another jury will require sending summons to cloistered monks and nuns.

If Chauvin gets convicted he’ll appeal and the case should be retried. There is no way this should have been tried in Minneapolis. Worse, an actual police shooting and death occurred during the trial. This resulted in a riot and curfew being imposed. A city councilwoman of Brooklyn Circle said she voted to fire the city manager because she was afraid if she didn’t she would be targeted by the mob.

You have, on the record, a city council member saying she voted a certain way out of fear. A juror lives in that city. It would be a grave injustice, like the trial itself, to not overturn on appeal.

What happened to doctors Michael Baden and Allecia Wilson? Did they appear at the trial for the prosecution? The guys who gave the alternate autopsy that formed their prosecution (these people claimed he died of asphyxia from combined neck and back compression which is the same arguments the prosecution was making throughout the trial)? Did they even submit into evidence this autopsy, which they never provided to the public originally?
