If you care about defendant's rights, prosecutorial misconduct, and criminal justice reform, this is the bad ending to this case.
NB4 "why are you simping for a cop"
I'm not. She's a defendant, accused of breaking the law. The prosecutors knew this was a bad case.
I don't care who they're prosecuting, my expectations for the state do not change.
Based on the evidence that's been presented at trial, even through the state's whole case, I don't think the state can prove Kim Potter is criminally liable for the death of Daunte Wright. Not under the charges brought against her.
Civil liability would be another thing, in the absence of Qualified Immunity.
