Chat is currently grappling with the debate over whether or not DNA is a molecule. Both sides are confident.

more importantly... why is there a need for DNA evidence in this case?

it has nothing to do with whether Potter was criminally negligent in shooting Wright

+1. This whole day has been a waste save for a couple of bits regarding the taser and differences with the glock and her training.

Can we just stop this bullshite?

What's her charges? Manslaughter?


1. Charge: First-Degree Manslaughter Predicated on Reckless Use/Handling of a Firearm

Kimberly Ann Potter caused the death of Daunte Demetrius Wright, while committing the
misdemeanor offense of reckless handling or use of a firearm so as to endanger the safety of another with
such force and violence that death or great bodily harm to any person was reasonably foreseeable.



2. Charge: Second-Degree Manslaughter

Kimberly Ann Potter caused the death of Daunte Demetrius Wright, by her culpable
negligence, whereby Kimberly Potter created an unreasonable risk and consciously took a chance of
causing death or great bodily harm to Daunte Demetrius Wright, while using or possessing a firearm.

so... Glock trigger pull is 5-6 lbs

taser trigger pull (not in evidence... only from Rekieta's quick google) is 4+ lbs

earlier models of taser had weaker trigger pull (took less weight to pull trigger)

ETA: honestly... the fact that a taser grip is shorter (perhaps not allowing a pinky to fit) is perhaps the biggest piece of info to learn... outside of the weights of the 2 weapons

That was interesting but are you really going to feel a 1 lb difference in that scenario? As for the grip I think that is much more damning than the weight of the two but as someone in the Rekieta chat said a woman typically has smaller hands so maybe her pinky fit on the taser grip.

this BCPD commander on the stand now went to the University that was kicked out of NCAA D3 for being too good so it went straight to D1 (which is very odd)

What is DNA anyway? Just three letters.

Probably stands for Did Not Attack.

in a high stress scenario... I don't think I would notice a 1 lb difference... but who knows until you're actually in the scenario

I had that thought too

I think we need to learn more about this taser... esp. since it was a brand new model and she was the only officer in the department with that specific type of taser at the time
