After George Floyd

Travis County's Democratic DA, who was elected months after the protests and ran on promises to hold police accountable in Austin, said his office would still move forward with prosecuting four other officers.

“We will continue to try to ascertain what additional measures are being made to protect Derek and will pursue any avenues available under the law to ensure his continued safety,” Chauvin’s attorney said.

He told federal prosecutors he had been thinking about assaulting the former officer for about a month because Chauvin was such a high-profile inmate.

Chauvin was hospitalized Friday following an assault at the medium-security Federal Correctional Institution at Tucson.

In his latest motion, Chauvin said he never would have pleaded guilty to violating Floyd’s federal civil rights had he known about the theories of a Kansas pathologist with whom he began corresponding in February.

“Journalists in Los Angeles County should be able to record police activity in public without fear of unlawful arrest,” journalist Josie Huang said.

In opening statements in the joint trial of a current and a former police officer in Aurora, Colorado, defense attorneys said the two followed department protocol.

Tou Thao is the last former Minneapolis police officer convicted in state court for his role in the killing of George Floyd on May 25, 2020.

NASCAR said Gragson violated the member conduct section of its rules.

The lawsuit focused on 18 of the many protests that erupted in New York City in the week after a police officer killed George Floyd in Minneapolis.

The Minnesota Supreme Court denied Chauvin’s petition, letting his conviction and 22 ½-year sentence stand. He faces long odds at the U.S. Supreme Court.
