Why Mead
Agreed, they usually have the results of big cases like this released around this time. I don't think you can make any conclusions based off the time of day

Why @Mead
It means they're stretching out their workload so their supervisors don't give them more work tomorrow, thereby stealing money from their capitalist managers.

Why @Mead

the way I see it they could be waiting until the end of the day to minimize the exposure of the news today if they think it might lead to large scale civil unrest

I could be and hope that Im wrong. But when I hear them say that they reveal news at the end of the day it makes me think most people are not going to like it.

I mean, the defense were extremely incompetent, it's going to be used as a case study in what NOT to do.

Doesn't mean he won't get off though.

What not to do unless you're defending a police officer then you can do whatever

I don't really think there is a correlation. I mean they aquited casey anthony with a pretty fast deliberation and she seemed guilty as sin to me. Admitatly, she was an attractive lady which helps things, whereas the same can't be said for Chauvin. But, regardless I don't think conclusions can be drawn from this either (although, I think he is going to be guilty of at least manslaughter)

Yeah it blows my mind she got off. She was obviously guilty.

Generally speaking, most of the violence associated with these protests has happened after dark. If anything, waiting until the end of the day suggests they're not expecting significant violence, since announcing it during the day would result in the immediate, most intense violence happening then instead of when the violence is expected to be worse anyway.

That, or they're just pushing it as close to a curfew time as possible.

This, although I'm not sure why Mead would be "concerned" in the first place.

And given the amount of prejudicial exposure, I really expect that the jurors had their minds made up before the case even started. Something this high-profile is unlikely would be hard to have an impartial jury.

Didn't they not even have a cause of death for that little girl?
Tbh,.I don't even remember the details too thoroughly. I just remember be shocked when she was aquited, after a short deliberation none the less.

However, the standard of evidence is pretty high for a criminal trial, so even in your mind you know they are guilty you still have to prove it beyond a shadow of doubt,.so it probably was one of those guilty in the ,yeah, that is what most likely happened sense, but not in the legal sense.

...that really shouldn't be the driving consideration in a trial. The only thing that should be considered is the guilt or innocence (or, I guess, non-guilt) of the accused.

No one cares about that one. That one is pretty cut and dry. There was at least a tad bit of wierdness in this one to have some debate.

There were also a number of pre-trial motions by the defense that were denied by the judge regarding change in venue and jury selection that have been used in other police cases to overturn convictions.

This. The judge issued a statement about it. And he was 100% correct. In appeals, this could be brought up and who knows what will happen.

She got too emotional and intelligence took the back seat.

If im on the jury and i was 50/50 on the bit then id say it would come down to lets throw one guy in the slammer in order to save our face and our communities from burning down. Probably even saved potential deaths by just tossing chauvin into the slammer. he knows what he did was wrong so meh its the best possible outcome for everyone
