The empath in me feels bad for Kim Potter also. She didn’t get out of bed saying she wanted to kill someone that day, but accidents happen & you can be held accountable for them. I hope this is an example for law enforcement across the country. #KimPotterTrial
The jurors really did their job. They deliberated for 27.5 hours. They were really conflicted but reached the right verdict.
Being a juror is not easy at all. I still have nightmares from the double murder case I was a juror for. #KimPotterTrial
Rest In Peace Daunte Wright. I hope your family and son have some sense of justice now. 🙏🏽 #KimPotterTrial #DaunteWright
For what it’s worth, the second degree manslaughter verdict was reached on Tuesday at 10:30 AM. The jury was deadlocked on the first degree charge which was reached today.
Very interesting. #KimPotterTrial
If Judge Chu grants Kim Potter bail, it would be a horrible decision. Anyone else in her position would be taken to jail immediately. #KimPotterTrial
Potter’s attorneys are saying she should be allowed to go home for Christmas and shouldn’t be incarcerated.
She was just convicted of first and second degree manslaughter. She’s now a FELON.
#KimPotterTrial
2021 was the year for *SOME* accountability for Black victims being murdered by police and those who think they are police.
#KimPotterTrial
Crazy how Potter isn’t crying now. The jury got it right. #KimPotterTrial
GUILTY #KimPotterTrial
Based on the voir dire, I highly doubt the jurors holding out would acquit Potter. I really believe she’ll be found guilty of second degree manslaughter.
#KimPotterTrial
She’s more likely to be found guilty of second degree manslaughter than first degree. #KimPotterTrial
Just said a prayer. Daunte Wright deserves justice. His family deserves justice. #KimPotterTrial
Either a mistrial or guilty verdict will be the outcome in my opinion. #KimPotterTrial
I think she’ll be found guilty of second degree manslaughter. I’d be shocked if she’s acquitted. #KimPotterTrial
The amount of time I spend refreshing the hashtag is insane. #KimPotterTrial
Especially considering Potter’s defense cost an upwards of $1M. #KimPotterTrial
A hung jury ≠ acquittal. If the jury is hung, Kim Potter will likely be tried again. A hung jury is not optimal for the defense either - it drains their resources. #KimPotterTrial
I’m really surprised they’re taking this long. If they can’t reach a consensus, they should just say that. #KimPotterTrial
If there’s a hung jury, Potter will be tried again. #KimPotterTrial
The jury asking to see the gun doesn’t seem like a good thing for Potter imo. #KimPotterTrial
Has the jury been dismissed for the evening? #KimPotterTrial
I wonder why they want to hold her gun if they can’t come to an agreement on a verdict. Did the judge answer their question as to what happens if they can’t come to a verdict? #KimPotterTrial
The most convincing evidence is Potter saying, “I’m going to prison” after shooting Daunte Wright. No reasonable person who makes a mistake says that. #KimPotterTrial @CourtTV
I wonder what question they have. Their question will be telling about what their ultimate hold up is, if any. #KimPotterTrial
Probably a hung jury. #KimPotterTrial
I wonder if this is also how the jury is thinking. 50/50. #KimPotterTrial
Patiently waiting. I hope there’s a verdict today. #KimPotterTrial
Thinking of this as the jury in the Kim Potter trial deliberates. This sentence is sad and ridiculous; he made a mistake and was found guilty. #KimPotterTrial
Millions Sign Petition to Reduce 110-Year Sentence for Trucker in Deadly Crash...
Judge Chu is tired. She finally decided to regain control of the courtroom on the last day of the trial lol #KimPotterTrial
Judge Chu denies defense’s motion for mistrial #KimPotterTrial
