Relatively quick verdict reached by the jury, I'm quite hopeful its guilty
George Floyd | Chauvin guilty on all counts | Sentenced to 22.5 years

Half Baked is where it's at. A Hybrid between Cookie Dough and the Chocolate Brownie one.So the name is cringy, but I have heard great things about their new flavor Netflix and Chill'd. May need to pick some up to try once the temp gets above 50 (it snowed today)
Netflix & Chilll’d Ice Cream | Ben & Jerry’s
This particular thread is going to have a lot of people watching, mods included, so try not to be daft whatever the verdict.
That's no excuse not to eat ice cream.
Also, how much snow did you get? Apparently it's coming our way
Just a dusting thankfully.
We usually make our own ice cream and there is just something about making ice cream when its freezing outside that doesn't feel right.
Do they have an exact time for when the verdict is passed and is there a livestream somewhere?
Moderator, infract thyself!

Great choice
We're talking about bourbon and ice cream, lets keep that energy going when the verdict comes out.
I believe the earliest they're expecting a verdict is in about 20 min. I'm using this stream:
Within the next half hour.
Couldn't have said it better.
With the coverage and access to the courtroom, this reminds me of the OJ Simpson trial. The really is a historic moment, hopefully for a turn towards the better.
This is 75% of that, plus peanut butter.Half Baked is where it's at. A Hybrid between Cookie Dough and the Chocolate Brownie one.
Can’t think of anything better.
Absolutely. This is stopping people in their tracks.
Any minute now.
Chauvin has been called back into the court room.
I know I’m watching this so contributing to it all but the bottom bar on CNN right now with “The George Floyd Killing | Verdict Is In” has a really weird reality tv or tv drama type vibe to it.
100%. “Tonight at 7, season premiere” vibe
Yea exactly, it’s uncomfortable to watch.
I am debating whether to contribute to the media madness or just follow on twitter. May see if I can get the WaPo live stream link working.
Don Lemon hammering home America #1 here
Regardless of outcome, is it true that maximal sentence for Chauvin without any prior would be around 12 years? And with the prospect of appeal etc that this might not be over for a while even if done for second degree murder?
Whatever he gets there is zero chance he does a full term.
Unlikely, given that one of the murder counts alone gets 40 years.
It's kinda murky because of this:
and because the prosecution asked for an exception to these guidelines. (they wanted the presumptive sentenced guidelines ignored I think)
Two great points by Jason Johnson...
1. Perversely, an acquittal would move the change forward more quickly, & ultimately more effectively, than a guilty verdict(s).
2. Imagine if Trump were still president?
He apparently bailed a few of his students out of jail over the past year.
@Carolina Red, you’d do such if you were a college prof?

I hope that right now Chauvin is feeling just an iota of the terror that he inflicted on Floyd.
Just watch it on CSPAN or PBS. Best to just cut out the sensationalist crap that the other media orgs look to offer.
So Van Jones just showed up on CNN, made my decision to find another stream easier.
No doubt we will see some crocodile tears from him after the guilty verdicts are announced.
Whatever the verdict, Van will cry.
CNN saying any minute now...
One of the safest bets there is.
Said that for 20 minutes
I suppose they are technically correct
I'm just thankful Santorum isn't on that damn Panel.
Is it possible for him to be found guilty of multiple charges eg. third degree murder and manslaughter or do they need to settle on one?
Thank god they are not covering the super league meltdown or else the "Breaking News" chyron would have been burned into my tv screen.
