One picture should have closed the case: Chauvin, hand in his pocket, kneeling on Floyd's neck, looking like he's got no worries in the world, and having a great time.

They did a stellar job on the prosecution just from a law perspective.

@MarkPaul Honestly, with her, I'm on the fence. Besides the color, which she couldn't see with her eye on the suspect, the trigger looks similar.

1. Nothing the guy did justified the kind of force from a taser or a gun especially when they had all the information they needed if they needed to pick him up later.
2. Trying to handcuff a suspect in front of an open car door is a rookie mistake. The rookies literally encouraged him to try to escape. As a seasoned officer she should have interceded on that, not to pull a weapon.
3. A seasoned officer reminds himself/herself each day and every moment that they are putting people's lives in their hands, literally. She should have had the wits to mentally check which weapon she was using. That's the community trust she is being given to carry lethal weapons.
4. That guy was behind the wheel of an "ignited" car. No matter what weapon she thought she was engaging, using the weapon while he was behind the wheel was reckless, negligent, and unforgivable because of the risk to others if he put the car in drive and hit the gas... which he did, crashing into another victim.
5. She had better options and she chose the worst one.

They did a fine job.
But then, the defense had the task of trying to defend the indefensible.

They really were great! They really kept the unnecessary drama out of presenting their case and asked all the right questions of the witnesses. I was truly impressed.
The defense had so little to work with. Chauvin had no expression until he had a guilty verdict read to him. Imagine that.
