Derek Chauvin Trial - Day 13 of Arguments: Wednesday, April 14th

The defense started out the day by filing a motion for Judge Cahill to acquit #DerekChauvin of all charges without sending the case to the jury because the state has not proven its case, failed to show how GF died, as well as presented a series of conflicting opinions on whether the use of force was unreasonable. It was denied...lol

Next up was the long awaited ruling on whether or not Morries Hall, a passenger in the vehicle with GF would testify for the defense. We heard from Shawanda Hill Yesterday. Hall was subpoenaed by the defense as well and questioned by Judge Cahill this morning in court before the jury was allowed in. The defense has suggested Hall sold GF drugs and that Floyd died of a drug overdose, which means, his testimony would leave him vulnerable to potential criminal charges under Minnesota's broad third-degree murder statute.

Hall said he was not willing to testify because he is fearful of incriminating himself. Judge Cahill found that Hall had a valid Fifth Amendment privilege, and quashed the subpoena.
