Jury has reached a decision. Announcement within the next hour. What do you think? I think they will say guilty on manslaughter, not guilty of the murder charges. Either way it is going to be a rough night in MPLS. I am going to stay nice and cozy in the burbs.

I think they will ring him up on every charge

as quick as it was, they'll find him guilty.  I was guessing there'd be one or two jurors that wouldn't convict due to doubt, but I think the threat of violence in the cities swayed them.

Yeah, I would have a hard time not convicting with the threats of violence against the jury, even if I believed he was guilty.

and that'll be part of the basis for an appeal

Which I still think will be DOA....

That video damned him...there is simply no getting around that

I have heard locally, even out in the suburbs that a lot of stores and businesses are clearing out and boarding up. I even hear the Walmart 20 minutes from my house boarded up the windows and doors, although I have not confirmed that yet.

I'm sure that Portland and Seattle will burn too.   :rolleyes:
I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

Ah. Thx Doug. (waiting patiently)

Hopefully they convict him on all charges and MINN and businesses can be spared. Wouldn't bet the ranch on it, though.

And what about Maxine Waters? Hopefully, she faces stiff retribution. No excuse inciting violence!

Guilty on all three counts! I am surprised that they went all in. I wonder if this stop all the riots from happening tonight.

Yep. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. (good question as to the riots happening or not)

Del.

The juries lives would be at risk no matter which way they decided.

LOL, show me actual proof of any jury member that voted to convict a cop of being targeted and hurt/killed because of it.
