    Criminal cases are judge sentencing with prosecution recommendations and defense gets to submit motions or evidence for mitigating factors.

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    This was my first post to you: So the decision of a fair trial was already addressed pre-trial for the most part. I could write it in crayon for you if not direct enough.

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    110% of the time a change of venue is requested in THESE public type of cases. I did not even have to google it. Any defense lawyer worth his money will draw up an automatic change of venue motion due to inability to have a fair trial. They are probably pre-printed on the computer. That is...

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    I am just telling you what I am reading you about MINN law... Are you giving me your opinion or factual legal analysis? If you are convicted of 3 crimes, all 3 sentences can be aggregated together for a combined sentence. Every state is a little different.

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    Ok quiet down I answered your question. Pre trial motions address questions of unfair trial due to venue. Case closed.

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    It is not really double dipping if they sentence him to each crime... since 40 years is the maximum penalty on the highest charge and he is a 1st time offender.... I am guessing 15 - 20 years target minimum.....Judge might show leniency here.

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    From what I gather they can add up the prison sentences for each of hte 3 charges and give one sentence: If two or more sentences are consecutively executed at the same time and by the same court, the Commissioner of Corrections must aggregate the sentence durations into a single fixed...

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    You have to look up MINN law and see if sentences are concurrent and can be served consecutively.

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    There is no cause for appeal just because Waters said something and Biden's comment was while jurors were sequestered. The only cause for appeal is for defense to claim the INTENT required under the higher murder charges were not proven. That is a question of law and something that defense...

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    I have to admit I was not expecting all 3 counts guilty. because of that the minimum prison could be closer to 15-20 years...who knows what the judge will do.

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    I said all of those matters are addressed in pre-trial so they were already done. Thank you for confirming what I said. And jury nullification means you cannot appeal just because you claim you got an unfair trial. You need an actual mistake of law or application of law to claim something on...

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    Only a judge can nullify a jury, the defense cannot appeal a jury decision just because they think it was unfair, that is what voir dire and pre-trial motions are for. So the decision of a fair trial was already addressed pre-trial for the most part. I have never really heard of juries being...

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    I am not sure that is right... I have not pulled up the statute but it says for manslaughter the judge can sentence him to 4.5 years for first time offender. I don't think you walk out with just a fine for this type of crime. EDIT: Ok that is what the statute says but no way the judge offers...

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    I still say the jury will be hung on the first two and find him guilty of the 3rd lesser charge. the adddition of intent makes the burden of proof so much higher.

    Derek Chauvin jury reaches verdict in George Floyd case

    Dont think they will charge him with both, has to be one or the other but I am not up on State criminal law in MINN. That is why the prosecution gives different charges. If they give only thei highest and jury thinks it would be lesser they have to acquit. So you give all the charges you...

    Judge in Chauvin trial calls out Rep. Waters for 'abhorrent' comment

    Reporters were hounding Psaki non stop about the case and kept declining to answer. Biden made his comment like anyone else after jury was seuqestered so not that big a deal. That is why he said nothing during the trial.
