  1. FIFA and UEFA make the IOC look like a bunch of innocent school kids.
  2. Jerry Blackwell's final statement: Jury getting their final instructions now.
  3. The judge just stopped the defense cold and called lunch break. 2:34 and counting. This lawyer is going to get his client sent away with maximum sentence. I sure as hell don't want a hangry jury deciding my fate.
  4. Clearly defense counsel didn't learn the second cardinal rule: Never go to court over the lunch hour.
  5. I'm not sure that hearing George Floyd call out for his mama over and over again is helping the defense.
  6. Judge reading the instructions. He is not in the mood to fuck around today.
  7. After the sidebar, the questioning seemed to focus on another blood test that was already in evidence. Gist of the rebuttal testimony was Today is it. Jury instructions, then closing arguments. After that, it's as long as it takes for the jury to reach a verdict.
  8. The shart thread is over in Lulz.
  9. Nyet on the tracker, but my garage door opens and closes every time I cough. So there's that.
  10. Moderna Round 2 yesterday. Felt fine yesterday, but feel hung over today.
  11. Charge conference going on right now on the streams. IIRC this is the part where the attorneys hash out the jury instructions. I think the judge may have been expecting a lot of detail work on this, hence why he sent the jury home when defense was done.
  12. Evidence is finished. Jury has been sent off. Lawyers still have to do the instructions conference, but I think this is the end of public discussion. Closing arguments at 9 AM Monday.
  13. Defense rests. Dr Tobin back on the stand, and the State did some serious tap-dancing to not end in an immediate mistrial.
  14. He's not testifying. Sounds like defense is resting once the jury is brought back in. State wants to call a rebuttal witness to newly discovered evidence.
  15. Moderna Round 2 this morning. So far, just a sore arm. Very pleased to get the second shot.
  16. That makes Rosie look skinny. 25 stone and change...
  17. The God I believe in isn't short of cash, mister.
  18. 2nd degree manslaughter. I think this is the right charge. Negligent discharge of a firearm that kills someone, no intention to kill, and no premeditation.
  19. If Ellison and co. aren't preparing to cross-examine Chauvin, they should be. Yesterday's testimony was bad, bad, bad for the defense.
  20. Chief of police resigned shortly after that.
  21. State of Minnesota rests. Defense's first witness is a MPD retiree that is supposed to only explain how Mr. Floyd reacted to opioids.
  22. Getting back to the trial: It sounds like this is the only place where defense counsel has been on the offensive. Judge told the jury to have a bag packed when they come to court Monday, sounds like they'll be getting the case then and will be sequestered until they reach a verdict.
  23. Yup. Negligent discharge. Tried to draw her taser and got her pistol instead.
