Chauvin jury

The Babylon Bee: "In Closing Argument, Prosecutor Tearfully Addresses Each Juror By Name, Phone Number, And Street Address"

That's a little too close to the bone to be very funny. If every juror doesn't already know that the media will compete to be first to disclose each one's name if they render the "wrong" verdict, they're probably not smart enough to be jurors.

It's an old problem. Conflict sells, a little wink-wink nudge-nudge will generate some new stories for them.

Yeah, I'm not even sure it qualifies as wry humor. Grim humor at best.
