Maxine Waters’ Comments May Be Grounds for Appeal

“The judge overseeing former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin’s trial in the death of George Floyd said Monday that Rep. Maxine Waters’ comments could be grounds for appealing a verdict in the trial,” CNN reports.

Said Judge Peter Cahill: “I’ll give you that Congresswoman Waters may have given you something on appeal that may result in this whole trial being overturned.”

“Waters on Saturday night had called for protesters to ‘stay on the street’ and ‘get more confrontational’ if Chauvin is acquitted in Floyd’s killing.”
