Key moments in the Derek Chauvin trial: Day 2

1. I personally think it was a catastrophic mistake for Eric Nelson to try to make bystanders out fo have an attitude problem because of how they reacted as they watched a man die in front ot them. Anyone who isn't extremely agitated and traumatized by that has to be inhuman and every juror would have known that. Nelson had no choice but to cross-examine these bystangers, but what ham-stringed him is that we all saw their grave concern for George Floyd and their disgust about the way he was effectively slaughtered like a pig, and so it was entirely the wrong strategy to have sought to characterize Williams as "an angry black man" syndrome and the fire fighter as a woman with an anti-authority issue, especially as they complied with Thao's instruction to stay off the street. . .

2. I thank the woman firefighter. The pressure she is under from just witnessing George's murder has to be ignoramus.

3. The crowd was extremely angry and for stupid reasons

4. Imma tell you right now, this trial is already over before it started. The gov't knows they'll have more riots if he's found not guilty, example- LA riots after Rodney King. Where just doing through the motions but it's already over.

5. In regards to testimony of Chauvin's knee being on Floyd's neck "…all the witnesses have been very consistent…"
   Except the autopsy report shows their was NO trauma or even bruising to Floyd's neck. So I guess they are consistent in what they saw from a distance and was not actually true.

6. Chick looks like a female Joker.
   Hied she get that pasty white complexion?

7. Bro I dont want to hear about fucking tactics everyone including chauvin's lawyer knows what he did was wrong. No other time during an arrest has an officer done that, if he was afraid of the mob he shouldn't be a cop, if he had floyd under control he should've pulled him up and put him in the bullet proof car where he wouldn't have to worry about the mob that was causing him to shake in his boots. This narrative is bullshit

8. 👨‍⚖️👨‍💼🧑‍💼 ~ Too much trial testimony is coached by the lawyer calling the witness. Either prosecution or defense. In theory a jury is supposed to listen and observe how the witness reacts so that way the jury can tell if the witness is credible or not, but when lawyers are coaching witnesses that defeats the purpose so much of the time. Any interaction between a lawyer and a witness to cover testimony should be recorded to prove coaching doesn’t happen. But lawyers coaching witnesses has been an extremely common occurrence forever.

9. Angry and threatening crowd?
   That's what cops always say to get away with excessive force!
   THEY ALWAYS LIE!!!
   END QUALIFIED IMMUNITY!!

10. This is sick . They’re using someone me death as a literal entertainment story. Talking about the witnesses like characters … just feels so wrong the way they go about this

11. If that judge doesnt put those 4 police officers life in prison or the death penalty….people will be comming for that judge #Facts

13. If this woman cant handle being on the stand without crying she shouldn't be a firefighter. This is a minimal amount of stress and emotions have no place in the job. She should also not be wearing her uniform she was not on duty at the time of Floyds death. This is a show for her.

14. Tactic? WTF, is this justice? What about just truth?

15. Martial arts expert… stretch…. calling kids credible witnesses I don't think so. Impressionable yes. 10months later and knowing you are being brought to testify gives a lot of opprotunity for coaching. A lot of that testimony is tainted. Let the videos from start to finish tell the story. The witnesses are already coming with a bias and ready to say whatever based on how they were argumentative

16. So the MMA expert “has an attitude”, and this EMT needs to “sleep on it”. Gotcha.

17. Is anyone bringing up the fact that’s how Minneapolis trains officers? To kneel on suspects like that?

18. Authopsy shows no signs of asfixiation. There is reasonable doubt. Case closed.

19. I didn’t know that he swallowed a whole bag of fent/meth and that when he was calling for his mama he was calling for his gf and not his mom and that fentanyl can permeate thru the skin so you can’t do chest compressions barehanded without endangering yourself.

20. Just read all this hate crap..i want to hear a cop..retired ..active..just say this situation was handled right..

21. Bla……..kLiberalz Are Kriminalz.

    THE PROOF IS IN SEATTLE… PORTLAND… KENOSHA… MINNEAPOLIS… CHICAGO…

22. Do the families of fallen officers get massive multi million dollar settlements?

23. Why is no one talking about the fact that George Floyd was having a panic attack while the police were trying to put him in the police car? The prosecution should bring this up.

24. Chauvin is a monster.

25. I hope they dont let this man go free. Smh George Floyd deserves justice. Black people as a whole need and deserve justice. This has been going on for centuries and its time to teach lessons and make an example out of him. Hes not God so theres no way they can say he was going to die anyways because he had "drugs" in his system thats not for him to decide. George died because of that man. Period.

26. This problem can be prevented in the future by having laws that protect a mass of citizens from prosecution when they intervene with an officer committing a crime

27. Bar-bar OK ifb

28. Lets look at how chauvin used israeli military tactics used on palestinians to kill Floyd.

29. Comment 666

30. Well that was a waste of time.

31. Regardless of the ruling, Chauvins face is everywhere and the judge and his lawyer, they won't be safe

32. White folks so racist in this country

33. Maybe the guy had a boner and was afraid to stand up.

34. yana. im here

35. did mrs chauvin and mr chauvin both know Mr. floyd? why did mrs. chauvin divorce after the scene? passion kill? or what? maybe not racist. ask mrs chauvin. was that for her? lets not make this black n white… but did chauvins know George? ask wifey. only looks like passion kill. not racial

36. wait for wife. not race..pride

37. Wow! A person that knows the word “bystander”. So many people, mostly millennials and zoomers, think that it’s the (nonexistent) word “bystandard”. They have no idea that the proper word exists.

38. when did a knee to the neck become the treatment cops render to those suffering drug overdoses ?

    when the EMTs showed up none of them kneed Floyd's neck.

39. At the risk of antagonizing some, the fact that bystanders were interacting with Chauvin probably played a role in the continued behavior exhibited by Chauvin that resulted in the death of Floyd. In general, one thing that many cops dislike is when, right or wrong, their authority is questioned. Tell a cop what to do, even if good advice, is usually met with exactly the opposite. The pathologically need for police to be in total authority and control took precedence over intelligent and appropriate behavior. This is something I doubt will ever be discussed in police training classes. No police officer is instructed to admit wrong doing and change course of action accordingly.

40. I found EMS lady to still be quite credible! She displayed signs of being traumatized differently than the other witnesses so far. She was/is angry! It’s a process and I wish her well.

41. ❤❤

42. Innocent

43. Ummm they were very credible the fire fighter and Donald. This fire fighter us sposed to crumble coz a judge who sits in a robe all day scolded her? She's probably seen more murders accidents burns etc than you can shake a stick at, ha I proud of that woman. They all are watching a man be murdered side effect???? ANGER at being disabled as a fire fighter to save his life and being disabled as a MMA fighter from pushing those creepy murderes off George. Once they moved off the sidewalk towards George I imagine bullets may be flying so no they just had to WATCH him be murdered. !!!!!

44. This man going to jail

45. What more evidence do you need? As soon as Floyd was restrained and on the ground, Chauvin could’ve cuffed him and been done with it. Instead, he CHOSE to keep his knee on Floyd’s neck and to murder him.

46. There appears to be many armchair police officers in the comment section. Jfc

47. THERE. IS. A. FULL. VIDEO. We do not need obviously emotionally influenced eye-witness accounts.

48. He turned his body can off because of that dispatcher….. He's done this before. God used Mr.Floyd to show the monster 👺 under the badge. I believe he's a serial killer. He's unable to “feel" empathy. But I'm glad he can still feel pain.

49. The George Floyd case shows that the US has the world's worst record for human rights abuses both domestically and internationally..
    
    The burning, shooting and looting that happened last year wasn't BLM or Antifa. It was thieving Americans from both the left and the right.
    
    Extremism within the US police and military ranks maybe why US troops have been stationed in Germany since 1945.
    
    Is the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act being updated in real time from this online trial?

50. How does being frustrated by the court system and the fact that you witnessed a murder hurt your credibility?????? Idgaf about their attitude as long as they are telling the truth so we can put that b**** away!
