If Derek Chauvin's defense convinces the jury that George Floyd was experiencing excited delirium syndrome — which is very plausible — he will very likely be acquitted on the murder charge. Some of this stuff is incredible. Absolutely worth the full read:https://medium.com/@gavrilodavid/why-derek-chauvin-may-get-off-his-murder-charge-2e2ad8d0911 …
The cited 2018 MPD white paper claims: > ExDs suspects pose a potentially lethal threat to law enforcement > there are documented cases of ExDS deaths with minimal restraint, e.g. handcuffs > it is very difficult to show whether positional asphyxia contributed to an ExDS death
"[An ExDS case] has the potential for intense public scrutiny coupled with the expectation of a perfect outcome. Anything less creates a situation of potential public outrage. Unfortunately, this dangerous medical situation makes perfect outcomes difficult in many circumstances."
This isn't Chauvin's defense. This is a paper released in 2018, citing task force findings from 2009. This is absolutely going to introduce the possibility — if not probability — of reasonable doubt.
I know this isn't fun to look at, but we need to be able to see what might be coming, here.
Feels like the obvious takeaway here is 'Make sure you've sold any property in MPLS prior to the trial'
Has good points, but I still wouldn't want to be anywhere U.S.A. if the jury finds him not guilty.
If he's acquitted for any reason, the country is going to erupt. It's going to be an absolute nightmare.
He's overcharged right now and it's likely to result in acquittal or lesser charge.
If the jury believes that he was experiencing excited delirium and that this could very plausibly have led to his death regardless of how he was restrained, it's possible that they won't convict him on any charge.
