The judge in Derek Chauvinâs murder trial slammed Rep. Maxine Watersâ call for protesters to âget confrontationalâ if the ex-cop is cleared in the death of George Floyd â saying on Monday it could lead to the whole case âbeing overturned.â
Defense attorney Eric Nelson had urged Hennepin County District Judge Peter Cahill to declare a mistrial, arguing that âan elected official, US congresspersonâ made statements that âI think are reasonably interpreted to be threats against the sanctity of the jury processâ and had the effect of âthreatening and intimidating the jury.â
Good job Waters, you stuck your foot in your mouth.
