He's guilty of murder. Only thing he wasn't expecting was the video proof and the amount of attention it garnered. I honestly believe it wasn't the first time he pulled something like this. Unfortunately some LEOs feel above the law and this MUST change. Until the system of union and arbitration backing up cops who commit crimes is changed drastically our country is going to see more and more of these incidents.

What Chauvin did was illegal. That's why the police fired him and arrested him.

Don't worry justice will be done. The video speaks volumes to me and others who believe in truth. The Defense suddenly made up the crap about Chauvin knee being on the shoulder. Very obvious they planted doubt. However, my eyes witnessed it. The reason why people are choosing to see otherwise is obvious.

Judges do not have the choice to overturn a, "not guilty," verdict only a guilty one.

I don’t think the judge can do that. Sometimes the judge can acquit a defendant that the jury found guilty but that’s very rare. It has to be a situation where the judge thought there was hardly any evidence to convict the defendant on whatever the charges were. Judges generally don’t like to interfere with juries decisions unless there’s really a glaring lack of evidence to convict the defendant but the jury found the defendant guilty anyway
