Not a legal expert

Never touted myself as one, either. Nor did I say the defense can call witnesses during the prosecution's turn. I said Nelson "hasn't even begun", implying he will later. I don't mind you correcting me when I actually get something wrong, or word it unclearly, but don't make things up just to knock them down, please. As for mens rea in Minnesotan manslaughter, you're right, I don't feel qualified to answer you. InedibleHulk (talk) 10:52, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

OK, after a minute of entirely amateur and self-taught research, it would seem second-degree Minnesotan manslaughter is as near to normal Canadian manslaughter as I'd initially assumed. So yeah, Chauvin would need to be proven to have knowingly taken a deadly risk in doing what he did to Floyd. Can we be regular online friendly now? InedibleHulk (talk) 11:24, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
