The trial was a farce and the verdict should have been NOT GUILTY on all charges!
I agree, but if there had been one guilty verdict on the manslaughter charge I would not consider the outcome of the trial to be absurd. There is simply no evidence to support the two murder charges. The elements just aren't there by any stretch of the imagination. The evidence doesn't fully support manslaughter either, but it at least comes close in that case. Chauvin was just doing his job in a difficult situation. That's not something which justifies a prison sentence.
