I hope he's guilty. (At least on something). But I'm not sure about that. Some people have brought up that it's a relatively quick decision which could indicate a guilty verdict. But others have also pointed out cases like Casey Anthony and OJ which had quick verdicts that resulted in non guilty verdicts.

If he's not guilty on at least something, that will definitely create a lot of turmoil. I don't think there will really be much in the way of rioting if he's found guilty on all charges. There will be some people upset about it, but I don't see too many sticking their neck out to get hurt /risking their lives/livelihoods for Derek Chauvin. Even if they think he should walk free.

If he's found guilty but not on all the charges, there could be some strife, though not as much if he's found not guilty on everything. And while people may be upset he's not convicted on everything there may be some relief among some that at least he was found guilty of something. And that at least some justice was served regarding what he did to George Floyd. There may end up being more people that will share that sentiment than people might think. Especially since people have been very disappointed/angered with verdicts in cases the past few years. Like the Trayvon Martin case, Casey Anthony, etc...
