re: Derek Chauvin seriously injured in knife attack in prison

Judge Peter Cahill set aside three weeks for jury selection, and the court used a larger than usual pool of prospective jurors – about 326 people.
Typically, defense attorneys in similar cases get five “peremptory” strikes, while prosecutors receive three, according to the Associated Press. In Chauvin’s case, defense attorneys were given 15 strikes compared with nine for prosecutors.
“It shows the judge bent over backwards to give the defense more opportunities to exclude potentially bad jurors even if the juror didn’t meet the technical criteria for a challenge,” said Ron Sullivan, a professor at Harvard Law.

If literally all 326 are biased against you and you get to strike 15... well... that still doesn't bode very well for you, now does it?

Now why would it be necessary for the judge to do this I wonder?

Yeah, he’s not helping his case. Lol.

Well that’s a rather absurd claim. Surely you have something to cite which backs that up.
I’ll wait…

Gymnopédie
Composition by Erik Satie
The Gymnopédies, or Trois Gymnopédies, are three piano compositions written by French composer and pianist Erik Satie. He completed the whole set by 2 April 1888, but they were at first published individually: the first and the third in 1888, the second in 1895. Wikipedia
This is so stupid. Of all the things to fixate on…

This is consistent even with the family’s third-party autopsy.
Restraint asphyxiation resulting in death without comorbid health conditions and drug use are extremely rare. In other words, you usually have to have a combination of health issues, plus drug use, plus resisting arrest in order to get to a restraint asphyxiation-related death.

But he died. So who care if others did not? The excessive force caused his untimely death.
If someone dying of cancer gets shot in the head, it’s still murder.

The county medical investigator concluded that it was a homicide due to “cardiopulmonary arrest” from “law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression.”

You forgot to quote some stuff.
Also, pretty much what I said.
Heavy drug use.
Bunch of comorbidities.
Resisting arrest.

That’s not the analogy, though. If the police are chasing someone, and they collapse from exertion, are the police responsible for them collapsing from over-exertion?

The autopsy kinda agrees. All except for the finding. The data completely agrees.

The conclusion completely disagrees.
