    The site for MN defining 2nd Degree Murder is down right now, but it may be up later:

    I guess they have to show malice by the officer. There's a chance he could get off on the 2nd Degree Murder now and just get convicted of involuntary manslaughter. He does have a repeated history of excessive use of force, but I don't know if that would constitute malice.

    I guess its for the Jury to determine.

    I'm guessing if he skates by on "involuntary manslaughter," the riots will redouble, since it was pretty obviously intentional murder. It took him 9 minutes, it wasn't accidental or involuntary.

    He can claim negligence.

    "I didn't know he was going to die". Lawyers bring up recent meth and fentynl use and heart condition. No way officer would have known that.

    I wonder if that will be an issue. Revised/updated autopsies.

    If there was pressure to revise the autopsy due to the riots and political pressure.

    I like to cut to the chase and cut out the middle man, like N.W.A. so aptly said 30 years ago:

    "FUCK THE POLICE!"

    It still brings up some questions. If there was pressure put to change the results, there was pressure put to change the results.

    This is what caused more controversy back in the day:

    Ice-T and Cop Killer, although the song sucked. It seems like it could still be relevant today.
