The judge presiding over the murder trial for former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin made a critical comment about Rep. Maxine Waters’ (D-Calif.) recent remarks that protesters should “get more confrontational” if a guilty verdict isn’t delivered against the former officer.

Hennepin County District Judge Peter Cahill on Monday responded to a comment made by Chauvin defense attorney Eric Nelson who noted that over the weekend, a “United States Congressperson was making what I interpreted to be ... threats against the sanctity of the jury process” and “threatening and intimidating the jury” into delivering a guilty verdict against his client.
