I am surprised. I thought they had at least one (and I hope not 12).

Cops get away with this crap WAAAAY too often for me to get my hopes up.
If there is a guilty verdict on any count, it will be almost certainly be the least harsh of the options.

They obviously didn't do a lot of haggling over the charges. Makes me think he got off. Hope I'm wrong, but that's how it looks to me.

Hard to imagine every single juror voted not guilty to all charges.

This country has been through so much in the past year; I don't know how much more we can take before things totally explode. We all need Chauvin to get a guilty verdict on the worst of the charges.
