Do you think Derek Chauvin will be found guilty?

Chauvin is charged with second-degree unintentional murder and second-degree manslaughter in the death of George Floyd. His trial begins today with jury selection.
“On the murder charge, prosecutors will have to show beyond a reasonable doubt that Chauvin caused Floyd’s death while assaulting him. On the manslaughter charge, they will have to prove Chauvin took an “unreasonable risk” when he restrained Floyd and that his actions directly contributed to Floyd’s death.”
Given how frequently cops are not found guilty (or even charged) in the deaths of unarmed individuals, do you think this trial will be different?
