When he was cuffed and marched out of the Courtroom...we see his open palms/hands...I did see on his left open palm, black lines x 3 below the thumb...Did he write notes to himself with black marker?
Did anyone else notice this?

Chauvins lawyer, Eric Nelson, tells TMZ, his client wrote the number ahead of the conviction, because the convicted former cop knew if the jury found him guilty of second-degree murder hed almost certainly have his bail revoked and hed be remanded to custody.
Chauvin clearly knew given his former profession, he would have limited access to a phone but would be allowed to call his lawyer thus the scribble on his left hand. Chauvin has been in court many times, so he clearly knew a conviction would lead to swift incarceration, with no opportunity to speak to his lawyer in court after the verdict.
There is no evidence Chauvin is affiliated with the Three Percenters group. We have previously reported extensively on his background.
