Kim Potter, the former officer who fatally shot Daunte Wright during a traffic stop in suburban Minneapolis, is expected to testify in her own defense after the prosecution rested its case on Thursday.

The state presented more than two dozen witnesses over six days, including a policing expert who testified Wednesday that Potter was not justified in using deadly force when she fatally shot Wright in April. The expert also told jurors the use of a Taser during the stop would have been unreasonable.

" "If that was a training scenario that was put in front of me or one that I created for my officers, the use of a Taser would have been reasonable under those circumstances," the sergeant told Engh during cross-examination.Peterson told jurors that Potter at the time was using a new Taser that had come out at the beginning of 2021. She had never used a Taser in the field before, he testified.
