File The headline maker of the week was the outcome of the Derek Chauvin trial in Minneapolis. Chauvin was found guilty on Tuesday of three charges — third-degree murder, second-degree unintentional murder, and second-degree manslaughter — relating to the May 2020 death of 46-year-old African-American George Floyd. Chauvin, a white officer with the Minneapolis Police Department, knelt with his knee on Floyd’s neck for almost nine-and-a-half minutes while making an arrest, an action determined to have led to Floyd’s death. Along with Chauvin, three other officers at the scene were also arrested — Tou Thao, J. Alexander Kueng and Thomas Lane. The incident sparked unrest in the Minneapolis community and around the country, as well as a national discussion about overuse of force by law enforcement and how it relates to issues of race.
