The Death of George Floyd Murder Trial, Pt 8: Defense’s Case

Court TV Podcast

After weeks of testimony from the prosecution it’s now time for Derek Chauvin’s lawyer to present the defense’s case. Will a different point of view on police use of force and forensic science be enough to sway the jury? Will testimony from one of the people who was with George Floyd that afternoon have an impact? Host Vinnie Politan and Court TV’s Michael Ayala will break it all down. Plus Vinnie will explain the “Poltian Theorem” – his method for calculating how long the jury may deliberate after closing arguments end. Watch the trial daily from gavel to gavel on CourtTV and CourtTV.comand tune in to see Vinnie Politan and the entire Court TV team review each day’s testimony on Closing Arguments weeknights from 8pm to 11pm.
