The Irish accent was way better than that pompous one from South Africa..and way more knowledgeable and credible.

corrected - thanks everyone

1. Are you talking about the Aussie doctor?

He seemed like a complete creep. Who was the Irish guy? I missed that one.

2. Ha - this one is Australian? Sounds like a pompous Englishman LOL

Kilkenny-born Doctor Martin Tobin was a great witness for the prosecution last week.

4. Thanks for the update.

Yep, either way, he sounds pompous!

6. It should be referred to as the Chauvin trial -- George Floyd is not on trial, despite the defense

8. George Floyd isn't on trial.

And you might want to give up on your attempts to identify (and stereotype) people by accent.

9. Stereotype?

Pompous English and pompous South African is still pompous - they both loved their cork hats

11. This Fowler dude is a shyster.

I'm just now watching the cross examination.

i googled him to figure out which guy you were talking about, because i'm watching the trial on youtube and it's really hard to watch it in chronological order after i miss a few.

he's also done this before and is being sued.

Fowler's theory on Floyd's death — which he says was caused by a sudden heart event — matches the one he gave in the 2018 death of 19-year-old Anton Black, a Black man who died in after being restrained and pinned to the ground by police.

Fowler, a former professor at Johns Hopkins University, served as Maryland's chief medical examiner until he resigned in 2019. He is being sued in federal court by Black's family.

No one has ever been charged for the death of Anton Black, who was only 19 years old.

the defense is throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks. this expert is full of shit.
