On Tuesday, witness testimony continued in the trial of former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin, who is charged with Floyd's murder. Chauvin was recorded kneeling on Floyd's neck for 9 minutes, 29 seconds while Floyd shouted, "I can't breathe."
We cover all the key quotes of day 2 of the trial here ([link removed]) , including:
* Donald Wynn Williams II, who has a background in both wrestling and mixed martial arts, claimed that Chauvin performed a "blood choke" on Floyd, adjusting his positioning several times to maintain pressure on Floyd's neck.
* A witness who is not being publicly named or shown on video by the court because she's a minor claimed that former officer Tou Thao was being aggressive to the bystanders and Chauvin got his mace and started shaking it, scaring her.
* Genevieve Hansen, a trained emergency medical technician (EMT) and Minneapolis firefighter, said she felt "helpless":
"Because there was a man being killed, and I would have... had I had access to a call similar to that, I would have been able to provide medical attention to the best of my abilities and this human was denied that."
What's your verdict? Is Chauvin guilty of the murder of George Floyd? ([link removed])

** Sexual Abuse of Animals
------------------------------------------------------------
Hawaii is currently considering a bill that would make sexual abuse of animals a felony.
The Aloha State joins New Mexico, West Virginia, and Wyoming in not having any laws prohibiting the sexual assault of animals.
While the remaining states ban sex with animals, the laws are sometimes weak or vague, prohibiting vague offenses like an “abominable crime against nature."
