The jury will announce the Jason Van Dyke verdict at 1:45 p.m. CST. Should you want to see it live, please turn to CLTV on your cable or satellite network.
Given the light speed nature of the deliberations, and the fact the jury asked the Judge two questions, my money is on a second degree murder conviction which will make everyone unhappy, but it might just prevent rioting.
But the protest leaders are saying, if it ain’t first degree murder – if there’s no justice for Laquan McDonald, there will be no Chicago Marathon on Sunday. Interesting!
I’ll be watching!
PS: It was a second degree murder conviction exactly as it should’ve been.
I know you said you had things to do and you were not going to post on Friday or Monday. And maybe this breaking news is technically a Friday post. But just for future reference please do not take a long weekend off if the Bears are not playing. What a damn long day and no First Ward till Wednesday. Thank goodness I brought booze
Have a tremendous Indigenous People Day Dude
