Legal Talk Today : The State vs. Derek Chauvin (Part 2)

In the second part of this series, we continue our discussion about the Derek Chauvin Trial with Professor David Schultz, talking about the criminal charges and what the prosecution will need to prove to get a conviction. Later on, we discuss jury selection, concerns about security, and a unique Minnesota evidence law that might make the prosecution’s job much more difficult.

Special thanks to our sponsor Nota.
