The family of GeorgeFloyd is calling for an upgrading of the criminal charges against former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, from 3rd degree murder to 1st degree

The family also is calling for charges against the other officers at the scene when a handcuffed Floyd begged for his life as Chauvin pressed his knee into Floyd’s neck.

County prosecutor Mike Freeman spoke out on Friday, revealing that Chauvin, whom he called “the most dangerous” officer, had been charged with manslaughter and third degree murder. Freeman said that the case was moving along very swiftly and that the other three former officers are under investigation., which sometimes turned violent, saw demonstrations spread beyond Minneapolis.

They also said there son would never approve of the destruction going on over this. can’t cover that because cnn wont allow it. They went 3rd degree to get a sure fire conviction. They learned from the mistakes Baltimore Da made.

That would almost guarantee he’s acquitted

Should be second-degree, for sure, because the intent to kill was there.

That cop has a really punchable face.

Don't forget the other 3 who were involved!!!

Maybe a few more precincts need to go

Hell yeah! That’s some BS!

So far based on evidence at most the charge will be upgraded from 3rd to 2nd degree murder

Alex_Chatman After seeing the video it should be upgraded. What a despicable act from that officer. A disgrace to the policeforce

The ME report makes M1 and M2 almost impossible...

I agree

And this is why he'll walk free. Don't be stupid. Maybe sure the charge is prosecutable.

When he told Chauvin he couldn’t breathe and Chauvin continued pressing down on his neck, it became at least 2nd degree murder. If only there were a video...

Because the AG of MN is a Muslim Antifa Member ?

The problem, however, is that first degree murder is hard to prove and, if the prosecutors cannot do so, then Chauvin will be let off. I say raise it to second degree murder, at most, with the manslaughter charge so that there are more chances for justice to be doled out.

Agreed 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 100% FIRST DEGREE MURDER & additional charges

GOOD. The whole world watched a murder in the first degree with zero remorse or thought for loss of life

yup raisethedegree

Did it ever happen that a cop was convicted to capital punishment for killing a civilian? Seriously asking...
