I take the "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard pretty seriously. If Floyd said he couldn't breathe before the cops held him down, and then he died because of too little air, he may have died from what started earlier. That's a reasonable doubt as to whether Chauvin killed him.
Anyway, we don't let people's loved ones serve on a jury in trials concerning them.
