Any Woman Can Be A Mother But It Take A Badass Mom to Raise A Librarian Shirt
Chauvin could be found guilty of one charge but be acquitted of the others. He could, of course, also be found guilty or acquitted of all three. And it is possible the jury reaches no decision, at which time a judge could declare a mistrial. The Star Tribune does a good job of explaining more about the charges if you need detail.
Forbes includes this insightful quote:
“Nobody is going to be happy at the end of this case,” said Justin Hansford, a Howard University Law School professor and Black Lives Matter activist who runs the university’s Thurgood Marshall Civil Rights Center. “If Chauvin gets off, it’s going to be like a Rodney King situation,” Hansford said, referencing the 1992 riots in Los Angeles that followed a jury’s decision to acquit the officers who brutally beat King. “If he’s convicted, the prosecution’s case is that he’s a bad apple. Neither the defense nor the prosecution’s narrative is going to make the protesters happy.”
It is natural to wonder how long the jury might take to reach a verdict. Quick verdicts generally favor the defendant. As hours stretch on, it signals that jurors are taking evidence seriously and consider the evidence to have at least some validity.
This deep study of verdicts says the reason that convictions often take longer is that the burden of proof is on the prosecution.
Since the burden of proof is on the prosecution in a criminal trial and on the plaintiff in a civil dispute, juries that find in favor of the state (in criminal trials) or the plaintiff (in civil trials) may take longer on average. As a result, we suspect that cases that end up with a criminal conviction or a finding in favor of the plaintiff ought to take longer than those that end in an acquittal or a civil finding for the respondent.
Interestingly, the same study says juries take longer to decide cases that involve multiple charges. Civil cases, in which juries award damages, also take longer. The size of a jury also makes a difference. Six-person juries decide faster than 12-person juries. But the speeds at which juries decide most cases surprised me. The study found:
