With the George Floyd murder trial set to begin on March 8th, I'll appear on MSNBC on March 7th to bring viewers up to speed on the charges, the history, inside info about the players and what to expect. I should add that the City and State are obviously nervous about the public reaction to the trial as they have already earmarked about $35 million just for Courthouse security. This doesn't include a comparable amount set aside for Capitol security.
As a former prosecutor, Board Certified Criminal Law Specialist and criminal defense attorney here in the Twin Cities, I have been in and out of these courtrooms for decades. This case promises to be historic so expect conversations about strategy, what you aren’t seeing and what may be just around the corner.
