That’s a good point. The jury’s job is not to figure out what most likely happened - but to decide on proof beyond reasonable doubt. There seems to be plenty of all kinds of doubts. If they want a conviction, they ought to lightened up on the charges, it seems.

I get it is an imperfect call, but IIRC, the be convicted of a crime there is this reasonable doubt thing. And how anyone could NOT have reasonable doubt I just don’t know. ....yep........and since all the charges involve him causing Floyd's death, a reasonable jury would have no choice but to find him innocent of ALL charges....................yet there was in my opinion a crime there albeit not murder of manslaughter...............of course, the state knows all this and charged accordingly (to their motives). The charges should have started at some form of manslaughter and proceeded DOWN from there. Chauvin and the country are fucked.
