This case will be removed to federal court.
And then the question is, will the federal judge grant the officer immunity?
That's a big question.
If he does not, then it's game on and you can try him.
But it's tough to get 12 jurors throughout the entire state of Minnesota.
This is not just Hennepin County jurors.
These are conservative jurors.
And to get them all to agree to see it one way, that is a challenge.
Correct.
It's much easier to get an indictment by a grand jury.
But the actual jury, because this case will be removed if it does go to trial to federal court, will come from all across the state rather than just blue Hennepin County.
What the fuck did you just do?
Megan, I did hear some pauses in there, and I think those pauses are where prosecutors can use it.
I agree with you that I don't think this is the strongest argument to convict the cops to say that they should have just shot once and not 10 times.
But it is an argument because once a suspect is incapacitated or the threat is removed, that the justification for deadly force ends and the continued firing into a motionless body, it's tough to reconcile with any reasonable mistake of fact.
But I think the stronger argument actually for the prosecutors is just that
Number one, at no point during that video did Preti draw the weapon, point it, place his hand on the holster.
And so if you want to say it's a mistake by the officers, well, only if the suspect's movements are consistent with that action, like drawing or brandishing.
Here he was sprayed, pepper sprayed, tackled, and they were on top of him.
And now also the agent who shot Preti was standing next to the agent in the gray jacket who had just removed the gun.
