This verdict appears to be 'Biden approved', that is not to say this is managed outcome.
Saw some social media comments saying that verdict will be overturned but I think it's not going to be easy with current political/social justice/human rights climate.
If this verdict stays, it will have far reaching implications. Will also make future global wars and occupations very difficult to manage.
Pressure will build on Dems to end Police training trips to foreign countries that use 'knee on kneck' method for policing people of various races.
Top GOP leaders appear to be quiet so far in response to this court verdict.

Former President Barack Obama on Tuesday expressed relief after ex-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of murder and manslaughter in the death of George Floyd.
In a statement, Obama praised the verdict, while also voicing the thoughts of many who want to see criminal justice reforms in the US.
"Today, a jury did the right thing," he said on Twitter. "For almost a year, George Floyd's death under the knee of a police officer has reverberated around the world — inspiring murals and marches, sparking conversations in living rooms and new legislation. But a more basic question has always remained: would justice be done?"
He added: "In this case, at least, we have our answer. But if we're being honest with ourselves, we know that true justice is about much more than a single verdict in a single trial."
