Have to say I'm surprised at the verdict. I expected manslaughter. Never heard of involuntary 2nd degree murder. Maybe that charge removes the premeditation aspect? I agree he will appeal and will likely end up being convicted of a lesser charge. But the jury has spoken and they convicted......probably not what I would have done but I didn't hear all the evidence. I do think the 9 minute video is what did him in. I can say this with some certainty, if I were a Minneapolis police officer I would not use any type of force to arrest a person of color. I would just let them go. It's simply not worth the risk. And if I had any other career option I would take it.
