Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted of murdering George Floyd, was stabbed by another inmate and seriously injured Friday at a federal prison in Arizona.
The defense attorney for the former Minneapolis police officer convicted of killing George Floyd has requested a new trial, saying the court abused its discretion on several points.
Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, addressed the media in the wake of the announcement that Derek Chauvin was found guilty on all charges in the death of George Floyd. In part of her statement, Pelosi thanked George Floyd for, "...sacrificing your life for justice". The statement has social media enraged.
Prosecutors are charging a Minneapolis police officer accused of pressing his knee against George Floyd’s neck with second-degree murder, and for the first time are leveling charges against three other officers.
