8:34Now PlayingEight Minnesota correctional officers of color will split a $1.5M settlement for not being permitted to have any contact with Derek Chauvin when he arrived at the Ramsey County adult detention facility in May of 2020.
The six men and two women say they were ordered, along with other people of color, to the third floor of the jail and prohibited from going to the fifth floor, where Chauvin was housed.
The complaint says Superintendent Steve Lydon issued a segregation order.
The plaintiffs - who are Black, Hispanic, Pacific Islander American, and multiracial - believed Lydon did not trust them to carry out their responsibilities because of their race.
According to the lawsuit, Lydon denied being racist and defended his decision to implement the order.
Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher admitted he did not investigate the issue.
