MINNEAPOLIS — Experienced attorneys say former Brooklyn Center police officer Kimberly Potter faces a slim chance of prevailing in a likely appeal of last month's manslaughter convictions in the shooting death of Daunte Wright.
A well-run trial by the judge presiding over Potter's case and few to no glaring legal issues will pose formidable challenges for Potter to overcome, said attorneys who are not involved in the case. Potter has not yet appealed her case. Her attorneys, Paul Engh and Earl Gray, declined to comment.
"I don't really see much of a viable appeal," said defense attorney Joe Friedberg.
