Tenth Juror Selected in the Daunte Wright / Kim Potter Trial

Four to go: two regulars, two alternates...

Trial begins next week under the direction of the female Asian-American judge.

Voir dire has been interesting, if you are into that. Prosecutors are out of strikes; juror number 10 sounds ... interesting. No word yet on his race (it's all about identity cues in this world they've created) as those stats are released at the end of the day...

The first 9 are 6 White, 1 Black and 1 Asian-American, for what you can glean from those statistics 

To me, the fuller background details during questioning are of more interest.

Number 10:

-20 years in IT, before he trained as an Explorer to be a cop but decided not to go down that path because he might have to use the gun. So somewhat critical of Potter's actions and lack of my muscle-memory instinctual response that comes though continual training/practice.

What killed me was when the old gal, 49, put out her resignation statement days after the killing saying she enjoyed "every minute" of her long career on police forces 

Tone deaf, as those minutes included the ones where she took a life... Not convicting her on that, but accountability matters in all public unions, I believe.

Local attorney Earl Gray is good, but I hope she is locked up. She chose deadly force to protect herself and others that didn't cost her life.  It caused needless death. She should lose some precious freedom in the tradeoff that cost Durante Wright all of his, despite his alleged criminal background.

Accountability, liberty and justice for all. Negligent and reckless, she was that day. Let's see what the 12 chosen think after they hear the court-admitted evidence and arguments.

With the world watching on, Gray is going to have to be careful not to overstep and appear offensive, like with the dirty toenails line in the Georgia case...
