The attorneys & judge ask questions & can dismiss those they don’t want. You don’t know this?

You don't know that verdicts are routinely thrown out when jurors like this one lie during voir dire?

Shrug, not gonna happen & the defense didn’t do their job. End of story. Wait, I’ll say in the rare chance there’s a retrial, that thing will still be found guilty & rot in prison or get expired while in there. Oh well.

Chauvin is a first time offender, he'll do less than 10 years.

Well, either way there is one less drug-abusing career criminal off the streets.

I wonder if the judge in the case will sign a warrant for his arrest since he lied while being interviewed for the Jury under perjury.

You can hide, you can scream into your My pillow and you can shove your fingers in your ears until they touch....but my point in post #28 stands as an apparent fear inducing pillar of truth to the far right.

11 others all thought the same thing with some rapidity.

There has been no rebuttal to that, just clucking and running around. Bwak Bwak Bwak....it's like The Right Wing View here...starting about the 1:15 mark

Reading through the thread it would appear that most (not all) of the talk is referencing the legal ramifications that may trigger a retrial, so honestly I don't know if that post is germane to the topic at hand, let alone 'fear inducing'.

Got it? It's not that hard to understand.


The only criminal justice reform this country needs is for people to stop acting like jackasses when talking to the police.
for the likes of that poster and a couple others on this thread, it's as hard to understand as computational chemistry or theoretical physics.
