they gave both sides a ton of time and he was inarticulate in everything he said. judge excused him.

they struck him because he said he would treat police officer testimony called by the defense differently.

it looked like both sides did not want him so they were trying to get him to admit to stuff to be struck for cause so neither of them wanted to waste a strike

The judge stated that the prosecution objected to the strike for cause.

This jury candidate sounds on the younger side, maybe early 30s but sounds level headed so far.

#19 sounds good. Appears to choose his words wisely and confident in his answers.

Why would some people have a problem with Blue Lives Matter?

This is not my opinion at all, but I have friends who do not like Blue Lives Matter because they feel as though people who support it universally support all cops no matter what.

Agreed.. refreshing to hear "yes sir" and "no sir" as well.

What Good Poster said. Also because BlueLM was created in response to BLM and, in my opinion, is missing the point. BLM isn't saying that cop lives do not matter. Its original intent was to create awareness of police brutality against black people and essentially saying "black lives matter, too." Criticizing police brutality does not mean you think cops' lives are worth less, and those who murdered cops in response are evil.

Keep in mind I am talking about what BLM was originally started for, not what it has become in recent years.

People in this country treat police officers so terribly. They antagonize and insult and resist and it's really gross watching videos that get posted on this board of people interacting with law enforcement.

If you are being arrested, do not fight it, let them cuff you and take you and fight another day. (My uninformed opinion on interacting with cops)

Thanks. Had lost track. Three down, nine to go plus four alternates.

I thought it was only 2 alternates? I heard the number 14 thrown out a lot (12 and 2 alternates)

I think the judge made the decision to up the alternates because of fear some members of the jury could test positive for covid during the course of the trial, IIRC.

Probably. That would be the same autopsy of a drug addict choked to death in a UFC cage. The difference is MMA fights always get stopped seconds in, not after 8 min. In either case the blood supply to brain is cut off with no deadly bodily damage visible beyond the video of the choke. Maybe some skin abrasions and minor tissue bruising....the same damage could be seen on a living human with choke released before death by cerebral hypoxia.

If you are in the camp that believes Floyd OD'd precisely when being choked, you are not very different from biased OJ supporters rooting for innocence.

That said, there is no evidence of premeditation, intent, or racism. A stupid cop choking a handcuffed suspect to death, guilty of 3rd degree murder.

BTW, the presence of morphine in his urine could be a metabolite of fentanyl processed by the liver and excreted through urine and to a lesser extent, feces.

It was created by Marxist skanks. Let's not pretend it's something it's not.

Not under the law on third degree murder in Minnesota.

Under Minnesota case law, if the actions causing the death are targeted towards one person and not the public at large, there is no "depraved mind" under the statute.

The recent state court of appeals decision is out of line with established case law. Out of the blue.

Judge Cahiil was correct in dismissing the third degree murder charge last fall, in my view.

A choking UFC fighter can neither speak nor fight.

Or we know how to read an autopsy report and when the ME says under any other circumstances, he would rule Floyd's death an overdose, that throws his supposition of manner of death as homicide into question.

What is your argument?

You believe cutting off the blood supply to brain for 8 minutes doesn't cause death?

Or you believe that choking causes enough bodily damage to be cause of death in an autopsy?

It has nothing to do with MMA the sport. It has to do with where else is there video evidence of choking to the point of passing out. If you have another reference point I would be glad to use that.

The fact you keep trying to marginalize me by implying I'm a UFC fan boy, shows how weak your counter argument is. Still 8 months later, nothing.
