Watch a slimy judge lay out every reason for mistrial then deny the motion for a mistrial because he’s a coward
Chauvin trial judge denies the defense's request for a mistrial, BUT he did SLAM Maxine Waters for her threatening comments in Minnesota this weekend to jurors, calling them "abhorrent" and "disrespectful to the rule of law and to the judicial branch and our function." pic.twitter.com/rAoa1QvcqZ

Judge Peter Cahill has been prejudiced against the defense from the beginning.
He allowed the third-degree murder charge to be brought, even though that was a gross overcharging of the defendant.
He prevented previous arrest records of George Floyd to be brought up to show a pattern of resisting behaviors.
He allowed witnesses who contributed no facts in evidence to give emotional pleas.
He didn’t allow a change in venue or jury sequestration despite all the public outcry and threats.
Now, this.
If he’s not ideologically aligned against Chauvin, then he’s a coward who makes rulings based on what he thinks will cause the least amount of protester attention to be directed towards himself.
I suspect that Chavin’s lawyer has spent the rest of today writing Chauvin’s appeal.
