Juror in Chauvin Trial Makes Potentially Problematic Statements on Morning Show
By Nick Arama | May 02, 2021 11:30 PM ET

There are questions now being raised about Juror #52 in the Derek Chauvin trial, reportedly Brandon Mitchell.

Mitchell has now come forward and given interviews on several shows.

Speaking to the “Get Up! Mornings” show with Erica Campbell on April 27, Mitchell spoke about his experience on the jury. During the interview, Campbell said that many people aren’t all that eager to do jury duty. She asked him about what message he would leave people about “saying yes to jury duty?”

That’s when Mitchell said something that could be problematic and potentially raise an issue on appeal.

But were all of the jurors honest about their positions while being questioned by the prosecution and the defense? That’s the question that’s being raised this week. One of the jurors who has since gone public, Brandon Mitchell (formerly known as Juror #52), has shown up on social media sporting some apparel and offering quotes indicating that he was not only far more familiar with the case than he had let on, but most definitely had a position as to what had happened. Given the answers that Mitchell provided during questioning, this could call the entire validity of the trial into question. (Daily Wire)

Quote
One of the jurors who served on the murder trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin reportedly sported a Black Lives Matter T-shirt with a reference to the death of George Floyd, seemingly challenging what the juror told the Chauvin defense team during jury selection.

According to a report from The Post Millennial, now-public juror Brandon Mitchell, 31, is seen in a Facebook post published in August 2020 wearing a hat that says “Black Lives Matter” and a T-shirt that says “BLM” with the words, “Get Your Knee Off Our Necks,” a reference to the death of Floyd.

My emphasis. Here is the photo:

Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

So they can dig into our social media posts for jobs, military, etc. but defense attorneys are to friggin stupid to check prospective jurors social media posts when their clients freedom and possibly life is on the line? Heck maybe Chauvin should get a new trial because his lawyer was incompetent.

I don't know. The attorneys could allow this to provide a way out if it goes south. And it went south.

More Proof The Chauvin Case Was A Farce

    Parker Beauregard
    May 4, 2021

As jurors begin the process of cashing in on fame and fortune, one of the twelve tasked with interpreting three weeks of intricate, conflicting evidence – a process that would determine a man’s freedom or incarceration – claimed that the verdicts could have come back in about twenty minutes. The only holdup was helping a single jurist (who is praying their identity isn’t revealed) decipher one aspect of jury instructions. That’s twenty minutes minus however long that sidebar lasted, which equates to the total time being spent in deliberation – on three separate counts. This is not only a true miscarriage of justice, it is the height of moral and intellectual stupidity.


Setting aside whether or not the correct verdict was reached – which on its own merits is hard to do – how does this latest revelation sit well with anyone that values due process, objectivity, and standing legal procedures? Such apathy for truth is as disheartening as it is alarming. Who among us welcomes the day when we have a questionable charge brought before us and the jury is indifferent to our fate? Yesterday it was a Canadian court arresting a father for misgendering his daughter and today it was Derek Chauvin facing two insane murder charges. It is frightening to think what a court might find us guilty of tomorrow.

Prior to the juror’s revelations, it was still hard to imagine that Derek Chauvin was going to receive an impartial and open-minded jury by holding the trial in the backyard of the George Floyd riots. The same people that voted for a 13-0 leftist majority on the Minneapolis city council, sent Ilhan Omar to Congress, and ushered in Keith Ellison as Attorney General of the whole state weren’t going to be waving Blue Lives Matter flags anytime soon. The same people who ultimately voted to convict Chauvin on all three charges had already witnessed their city burn for months and were repeatedly reminded it would burn again. But no, this juror says none of these considerations impacted their impartiality. Right.

Nothing will save this guy from serving the maximum sentence.  He should have fled the country as soon as Floyd overdosed.

Are defense attorneys allowed enough time to do that? Even if Chauvin's attorney checked Mitchell's FB history, that post was by his uncle.

Or maybe the lawyer was crazy like a fox.  Getting the conviction thrown on a technicality because of a tainted jury pool is a lot easier than overcoming the political pressure to keep the conviction and overlook the nicer points of whether the facts proven in court actually supported the jury's conviction.
