BREAKING: Derek Chauvin sentenced to more than 20 years in prison for violating George Floyd’s civil rights. Chauvin is already serving 22.5 years for state murder charges in Floyd’s death.

Kueng and Thao also face a state trial set for October on charges of aiding and abetting second-degree unintentional murder and second-degree manslaughter. Lane pleaded guilty to the state charges of aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter, avoiding a trial. A charge of aiding and abetting second-degree murder was dismissed as part of the plea deal.

The four officers' encounter with Floyd in May 2020 was captured on video recorded by a bystander, a traffic camera and the officers' bodycams. On the recordings, Thao is seen standing between onlookers as his fellow officers pin Floyd to the pavement. Lane and Kueng are on top of Floyd as Chauvin applies pressure to Floyd’s neck. The officers had been responding to a call from a convenience store about a counterfeit bill.

Floyd’s killing at the hands of police spurred protests against systemic racism and police brutality around the world.

Justice under liberals Will follow the wind matter the direction ==

George Floyd was a vile dangerous criminal drug addict. The world is a better place without him. We should put our knees on the necks of more of them.

Man is absolutely fifth but he never got a fair trial. Left wing terrorist would still be burning down Wendys’.

“20 years for infringing civil rights”. All in for the criminal sentence but isn’t this a dangerous precedent when the country is trying to install some gun controls / wind back the 2nd Amendment

He’s an efffing po💩 Should’ve been life!

Sorry Derek

Put him in genpop!

Talk about a lynching What happened th Chauvin was no more than mob rule. 1 lifetime criminal took 4 police off the job because he tried hiding the drugs he had The world is a better place without Floyd his family was over paid. MaxinWaters should be in prison besides the police

Concurrently? He killed a man. 🙄

сел хоть один.

их там должно было трое или четверо сесть.

It will never be enough. He could serve 2 consecutive life sentences and it would not be enough.

And despite overwhelming evidence of his guilt and a fair trial where he was found guilty by a jury of his peers, there are still people out there who defend this sorry excuse for a human being.

In other words, he will die in prison.

And they should be consecutive, not concurrent.

Are these concurrent or consecutive sentences.

еще бы ты не сел на 22 года. мы же и с тебя паровоз сделали же))

Democrats ran Minneapolis thanks to Democrat voters. Democrats hire THEIR police force. Yet, Democrats go blameless. 🤔 If Democrats voters want to burn and loot THEIR cities.....I'm OK with that. 😉

Can't wait to join the force.

Enjoy pig acab

Derek Chauvin took work and job into his pocket, thinking he is pleasing whites by killing black. Heaven has denied it. The law works: Do not kill others.

Derek Chauvin to be sentenced in federal civil rights caseDerek Chauvin will be sentenced in Federal Court on Thursday after reaching a plea agreement in May. Ugh. George Floyd died from his own poor health and a drug overdose. But everyone wants to say 'America is racist.' So this is how they prove their case -- by convicting and sentencing someone who did nothing wrong. Shame on everyone involved in this.
