Day 9 of testimony continues this morning. We've heard folks testifying on use of force, MPD policy and now shifting to more technical/medical topics.

Here's a quick look at everyone who has testified so far in the #DerekChauvinTrial

kstp.com/news/who-has-t… Court is now in session.

Eric Nelson is making a note about the state's intent to start calling their medical experts. Jerry Blackwell confirms they intend to call Dr. Andrew Baker who performed the autopsy on George Floyd. #DerekChauvinTrial

Day 13 of witness testimony will pick back up w/ LAPD Sgt. Jody Stiger. He is the state's first paid expert witness. Stiger's testimony ended abruptly yesterday. Still not sure why, but Judge Cahill told jurors they'd start at 9:15 today.

Watch Live: Use of force was the target of Tuesday's testimony. @KirstenKSTP spoke w/one expert about that testimony.

"I can't tell if both knees are on his back if he has one knee on the ground, so we'll never know the pressure."

Court will start earlier, but not for witness testimony. At 8:30 a.m., Judge Cahill will hear the motion on Morries Hall's invocation of his 5th Amendment against self-incrimination. Hall was in George Floyd's car on May 25, 2020. #DerekChauvinTrial

kstp.com/news/state-vs-… Witness testimony will continue after this AM's hearing.

We heard from Chief Arradondo and Inspector Katie Blackwell on use of force policy/procedures, specifically on neck restraints. #DerekChauvinTrial

You may have wondered why the state and defense attorneys ask questions in certain ways. @KirstenKSTP learned why those questions are equally as important the testimony in the #DerekChauvinTrial

kstp.com/news/in-derek-… And @CallanGrayNews spoke with Lee Hutton about why Thursday’s testimony from the two paramedics and now-retired Sgt. Pleoger was so significant. #DerekChauvinTrial kstp.com/news/experienc…
