Derek Chauvin Trial Info:
Fired Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, 45, was found guilty on Tuesday on all charges in the May 25, 2020 death of George Floyd, 46. A jury of Chauvin’s peers decided that he was guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter.
As seen on video, the defendant kneeled on the Floyd’s neck during an arrest for the alleged use of a counterfeit $20 bill at Cup Foods. Outraged bystanders pleaded with Chauvin to get off of Floyd, who was crying out in pain and becoming increasingly unresponsive. Chauvin continued restraining Floyd in that manner even after paramedics arrived. It was too late when authorities finally put the victim on the gurney.
“There was nothing there,” said prosecutor Steve Schleicher on Monday.
The state said that the kneeling went on for nine minutes and 29 seconds.
Defense lawyer Eric Nelson maintained that Chauvin acted reasonably under the circumstances. The defendant helped restrain Floyd, who was resisting officers Thomas Lane and J. Alexander Kueng, according to the defense’s point of view. Chauvin stayed on Floyd because angry bystanders created an environment that made it too potentially dangerous to perform CPR.
