(Brooklyn Center, MN) -- Many in the legal community are saying that any possible appeal by former Brooklyn Center police officer Kim Potter is unlikely to succeed.
Attorneys not involved in the case say the trial was well run and had few major legal issues, creating serious challenges for Potter's team to overcome in any appeal. Potter hasn't appealed yet. Her attorneys have declined to comment further on the case.
Potter was convicted last month of first and second degree manslaughter in the death of Daunte Wright after the former officer claimed she attempted to pull her taser during a traffic stop gone wrong, instead pulling her gun and shooting Wright, who died shortly after.
Potter is due to be sentenced on her conviction February 18th.
