From a legal prospective there's clear evidence of reasonable doubt. You have conflicting autopsy reports and the one that indicates that Chauvin's actions resulted in Floyd's death was done by a Medical Examiner that didn't actually examine the body.

I think the DA is going to have a hard time proving murder since there really wasn't any intent to kill him and the point where Chauvin had his knee on Floyd was after Floyd had been continuously resisting.

Now it's possible that Chauvin could go down for the 3rd degree murder since there's no intent requirement, but that autopsy report that says Floyd died of a heart attack from a meth overdose hurts their chances since it makes it harder to argue that kneeling on Floyd constituted an "eminently dangerous" act.

From a political standpoint I can see why people would be skeptical about this trial being adjudicated fairly. You have people scared that there's going to be more riots and there's a lot more anti-police bias now, however, I think that the judge won't dismiss anything but the jury will ultimately acquit Chauvin. I mostly think this because now that the "Big Bad Orange Man" is gone BLM aren't useful to the DNC right now. The DNC knows damn well that the ACAB "defund the police" crap cost them seats in the house and probably prevented them from actually getting a real majority in the senate. This doesn't mean that leftists are going to denounce BLM or anything like that but they won't be as vocal in supporting the violence as they were previously.

It's still gonna be a shitshow regardless of the outcome

Not really conflicting autopsy reports. There is one autopsy report and a political statement.
