Um, why does the NYT want us to “know” about the George Floyd jurors? (identities, school)

It’s almost like they are thinking “Gee, we hope their identities don't get leaked and they get threatened and harassed."

It's what they do. They want to stir up interest.

Honestly...I can't see how Chauvin will get a fair trial. And if he does get off with a "not guilty" verdict, there will be riots. We've seen this before.

He wont get a fair trial.

They'll probably riot either way. It's what they do.

Because people will read it. That's how news organizations work.

I learned from the Law School of Law & Order, season 1 on NBC that New York state does not shield the identity of jurors like many other states do.

Jury tampering, by doxing them and the receive threats.

This is the exact thing as yelling fire in a theater. Inciting harm.
Your actions causing harm to others..... We use to hang people for that.

Are we suppose to say their names too? I'm just trying to stay up on all of this political correctness.

I wonder how many Nike stores will get looted when the verdict comes back not-guilty?
