Nelson off on his Don Quixote search for confusing hypotheticals.
Seems he is arguing there werent any experts with Chauvin explaining how he was killing Mr. Floyd.
This seems rather futile to me.

Prepare the closing & hand it over to the jury.
The image Dr Tobin left for the jury, is Chauvin's knee on their own necks & the pressure points that leave man or animal vulnerable to death.
That image will remain in the forefront of their thoughts everytime they see the pic of the final minutes of George Floyd's life.
Time to deliberate, deliver Chauvin's fate & get some ptsd therapy.
After Dr Tobin's testimony, we all became George Floyd in the final 9 minutes of his life.
That will not be forgotten.
Rest in peace Mr Floyd ~

(15,325 posts)He's gotta start over & it's not looking promising.
Wish we could have watched a side by side screen of Chauvin & his Atty while Dr Tobin was speaking.
Dr. Tobin is not only an expert, but he's an excellent witness. His presentation is riveting, and his explanations are easy to understand. He even made his testimony tactile.
Redirect now.

(5,815 posts)He explains complicated things in terms we all can understand. He demonstrates on himself and encourages the jury to do the same. Anyone who views this as anything other than an intentional killing by Chauvin is just not paying attention.

JULY 2020
"Former NBA player Stephen Jackson, who was friends with police killing victim, George Floyd, shared an Instagram post of Floyds daughter resting atop his shoulders."
As Gianna Floyd smiles, she is shown raising her arms and saying, Daddy changed the world.

(3,131 posts)What a disgusting premise.
The re-examination is good. Where was chauvins knee during the nanoseconds milliseconds and the entire 5 minutes you focused on. On his neck and back.
Would you expect bruising. No it was a static force. When I sit in church I dont have bruising on my buttocks.
