In April, Minneapolis’s former white lady police office deadly shoot a 20-year-old black Daunte Wright. On Friday, December 3, a jury comprising white members was selected to deal with the case. In a traffic stop, Potter claims she mistakenly grabbed her gun instead of her taser and shot it at Wright, incurring first- and second-degree felonies.
News reported that the jury comprises twelve members. Comprises nine white members, one juror is black, and two are Asian. The jury is also equally divided among men and women, according to the channel. One juror expresses his thoughts that because of the gun use fear, he changed his mind about becoming a police officer.
Quite a few jurors also stated that they had a poor impression of Potter. She should have possessed too much strength to tell where her taser was, as compared to her weapon. Another jury member, former I.T. manager, and election judge wrote on a questionnaire that the victim should not have died of this charge. Expired license tag plates are not a much bigger reason to kill anyone.
A Navy veteran also included in the jury team said, during navy training taser also stunned him years ago. Now, technology has changed and the stunning issues will not affect his decision. He added more, seeing a video of a gun shoot was quite stressful as many things were happening there simultaneously.
Trail’s open argument will be held on December 10, and Potter will defend herself. Potter can get maximum prison of 15 years for the 1st-degree charge and 10 years of prison for the 2nd-degree charge. The jury said the sentence could be more if Potter was found guilty of the crime.

Music streaming has grown in popularity over the years. Starting with the launch of Apple Music in 2015, many companies wanted to try and capture some market share by launching their own music streaming service. Google Play Music launched in 2015, YouTube Red was launched in 2016, Spotify launched in 2008. Despite minimal growth, Amazon still built up an impressive subscriber base for their music streaming service over the past three years.
The Growth of the Amazon Music Streaming Service
Amazon Music, the popular streaming service, is proving to be an amazing competitor in the industry. Amazon Music has over 50 million songs and thousands of playlists available for streaming or downloading. This service can also be used with Alexa, Amazon’s voice-activated virtual assistant, so listeners can conveniently ask Alexa to play music while their hands are busy completing other tasks. Amazon Music Unlimited has over 55,000,000 paid subscribers worldwide.
The advantages of using the Amazon Music Service
Amazon Music allows customers to listen to any music and create and manage playlists consisting of those songs. An Amazon Music Unlimited trial is free for 30 days, or customers can choose to purchase an album or a monthly subscription starting at $9.99.

Why Is The Amazon Streaming Great for Artists?
Streaming careers have come very far in the past decade, with all the competition across many different apps available. One particular app that has proven increasingly popular is Amazon. Its main feature is that it’s free to use for Prime members, who are given access to free unlimited music streaming outside of their home country. However, the most significant benefit is the wide varied genre choice available to users. Listeners have access to an almost endless amount of songs for their taste, regardless of what they are after. What does that mean?

While jury selection is underway for the Pop Smoke murder, one of the male defendants takes to social media to claim that Corey Walker told them to use a “flower vase” instead of their hands if they needed to defend themselves. This news could be a game-changer for the case.
New Pop Smoke murder info revealed
The criminal case against Pop Smoke’s killer is being appealed by one of four suspects. As one of the only adult suspects implicated in Pop Smoke’s murder, he has filed a request, noting that he was only the getaway driver during the crime and did not commit the crime himself.
In a motion before a judge, Corey Walker and his lawyer Christopher Darden asked the court to discharge him from several charges, including murder, which was committed in the course of a robbery and burglary. As well as Walker, there are other three suspects in connection to Pop Smoke’s murder, including two minors.
What defense Walker can use if he is charged with murder?
As a matter of fact, Darden suggests that when his client gave the suspect his gun before the teens entered the house, he insisted they use a vase rather than a gun if the need to defend themselves arose. Those documents claim that Darden even asserts that Walker became furious over his associates’ actions so much so that he assaulted the 15-year-old shooter after returning to the crime scene.
Darden also highlighted a critical point regarding the level of his client’s knowledge. Corey Walker never knew any of the other suspects were carrying a gun inside Pop Smoke’s house on the night of the murder, except for the firearms he gave the team. The gun owned by Corey Walker didn’t kill rap icon Pop Smoke.

Defense lawyers for the men accused of killing Ahmaud Arbery are not permitted to mention Arbery’s past legal troubles in court, according to a judge. The decision by Superior Court Judge Timothy Walmsley marks a victory for prosecutors. They argued against the defense’s attempt to present Arbery’s “bad acts” before a jury.
Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael, and William “Roddie” Bryan, three of the men accused of following and fatally shooting Arbery, were represented by attorneys who contested the ruling.
He previously referenced Arbery’s past criminal records, including shoplifting and gun possession, to illustrate that he was not out jogging in the Satilla Shores neighborhood of Brunswick, but instead was robbing a home under construction at the time. Investigators found no stolen items on Arbery’s person at the time of his death and the construction site had not been robbed either.
In accordance with the defense lawyer’s arguments, the McMichaels were permitted to arrest Arbery because of his past and under Georgia’s now repealed citizen arrest law. However, the father and son, according to Judge Walmsley, had no clue about Arbery’s past when they chased him down.
It would be unfair prejudice to rely on “clearly bad character and propensity evidence” about Arbery, Walmsley argued, adding that character evidence of the victim is neither relevant nor admissible during a murder trial.
In addition, Walmsley ruled earlier this week that both the prosecution and defense may cross-examine Larry English, the owner of the house Arbery entered while it was under construction. On Oct. 18, the jury selection will begin.
