Chauvin Judge: Rep. Waters’ Call for Protesters to Get ‘Confrontational’ Could Lead to Trial Being Overturned
WHAT ON EARTH
“Congresswoman Waters may have given you something on appeal that may result in this whole trial being overturned,” Judge Peter Cahill told Chauvin’s defense on Monday.
The judge presiding over Derek Chauvin’s murder trial suggested Monday evening that Rep. Maxine Waters’ (D-CA) call for protesters to “get more confrontational” if the former cop is let off the hook could boost the defense’s appeal—and even lead to the trial being overturned.
