US President interceding in a murder trial, how can that verdict be considered fair?

Chauvin has been found guilty. Thank God.

Now you can breathe, George.

Sproty.

Biden deliberately waited until the jury was sequestered and wouldn't be able to hear what he said.

Justice seems to have been done. Maybe the next step is the long, long healing process.

The right result for a murder witnessed by the world, I hope it brings some sort of relief to his family and the community, it will be a lost opportunity unless this result is a catalyst for change.

the Guardian US:

''Representative Karen Bass, the Democrat of California who first introduced the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act in the aftermath of Floyd’s death last summer, has said she hopes the verdict today will reenergize efforts to pass the police reform bill into law.

“We need to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, and put it on President Biden’s desk,” she has said, speaking with the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) at the steps of the House of Representatives. “Because that will be the first step to transforming policing.”

The bill has passed the House this year by 220-212 vote, with no Republican support—and it faces a major hurdle in the Senate, where Republicans would block it with a filibuster''

Well let's hope the jurors were not aware, it was a risk not worth taking!
For a bit of Political gain.
