Bayard
(28,999 posts)1. I've wondered about this myself
They could have saved him if they had intervened. Criminal negligence maybe?

(17,879 posts)2. I believe they've been charged and their trials start later,
unless they take a plea deal, which would be the wise thing to do in light of Chauvin's conviction.

I'm not sure if the two "rookies" have been charged, but I'd bet they will be.
