In this powerful episode, we sit down with Steve Schleicher, the veteran trial lawyer who played a pivotal role in the prosecution of Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd. Steve shares the behind-the-scenes strategy and storytelling approach that shaped one of the most significant cases in U.S. history. We explore how Steve's meticulous preparation, experience, and ability to humanize the narrative for the jury helped secure justice. Listeners will gain insight into the legal maneuvers, courtroom dynamics, and the emotional toll of representing the state in such a high-profile case.
