#1 Chauvin is toast. The Mob has declared he is guilty of killing St. Floyd so actual evidence and truth doesn't matter. If he were to be found innocent the mob has stated cities will burn. Welcome to "Mob justice", something we will probably see more of.

#2 Maybe after conviction and riots, some judge will finally overturn the decision. A Trump judge. More riots.

#3 He's not toast. This is like the Zimmerman trial all over again: the defense is destroying the prosecution, showing clearly that their client did nothing wrong.

We haven't even heard the defenses witnesses, and already the prosecution's case has fallen apart.

They've done nothing at all to overcome presumption of innocence and reasonable doubt that 140-lb. Chauvin's knee on the shoulders and back of 6 1/2 foot tall 230-lb. Floyd killed him instead of the massive fentanyl-meth cocktail that Floyd ingested.

The toxicology report -- which hasn't yet been discussed for the jury -- makes the cause of death crystal(meth)-clear. The trial has been a disaster for the prosecution.

#4 The jury has been given enough 'over' to convict: Chauvin's chain of command testified that he used excessive force and it was unacceptable, and a medical expert has testified that Floyd died of suffocation, due to the hold. The jury can believe that or the alternative expert testimony (Chauvin's hold was standard, trained practice and Floyd died of suffocation due to drugs), but they are likely to vote guilty, with the expectation that if they are wrong an appeals court will correct them. Wrong, but that's what I expect they will do.

#6 A sure outcome of this trial is more riots and arson in metro areas, no matter what else happens in the courtroom. Count on it.
