Criminal defense and constitutional law attorney Jennifer Bukowsky said the verdict for the Chauvin case stands unless you can absolutely prove otherwise. It would be a high bar for the defense to make, according to Bukowsky.
Putting the Maxine Waters factor aside, when you talk about the jury not being sequestered, is there a case in the appeal that the jury had been tainted?
Bukowsky said the judge's denial to change location or sequester the jury are both good grounds to stand on for appeal. In this unique case, there could be an opportunity.
