Kim Potter trial: Minneapolis jury finds ex-police officer guilty in death of Daunte Wright
Fox News
The jury found Kim Potter, the former Minneapolis-area police officer guilty on both first and second degree manslaughter charges in the 2021 death of Daunte Wright, as a verdict will be read shortly.
Judge Regina Chu ordered Potter to be taken into custody and held without bail. She also praised the jurors as "heroes of the judicial system." The judge rejected a request from the defense team that Potter be allowed to remain out on $100,000 bail before sentencing. They argued that it's Christmas season and Potter is a devout Catholic, but prosecutors noted that Potter's family had moved out of state.
