Will Chauvin verdict be sea change in police brutality toward Blacks?

Guilty of being, in his words, hesitantly hopeful. “I hope this changes things the next time police kill somebody for no reason,” Richardson said. “There will be a next time. When it happens, and if the evidence is there like with Chauvin, I hope the jury and judge and everybody convicts. I hope. But I’m hesitantly hopeful. “Know what? I hate that’s how I feel. But one conviction isn’t enough. I’ve seen too many guilty cops get away with murder.” Richardson, 40, Trenton-born, Delran-raised, watched along with the rest of the country as a Minnesota jury on Tuesday found Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, guilty of second degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter for kneeling on the neck of handcuffed and pleading-for-his-life George Floyd for 9 minutes, 29 seconds during an arrest last year.

Derek Chauvin verdict gives small hope to Trayford Pellerin attorney

The conviction of a former Minneapolis police officer in the death of George Floyd has given Baton Rouge attorney Ron Haley cautious optimism.  Derek Chauvin was convicted Tuesday on two counts of murder and one count of manslaughter. Chauvin, who is white, was seen on video pinning Floyd, a 46-year-old Black man, to the ground with his knee last Memorial Day for over nine minutes after police responded to a report that Floyd used a counterfeit $20 bill. The trial drew worldwide attention, including Haley s, who is representing the family of Trayford Pellerin, the 31-year-old Black man fatally shot by Lafayette police in August.

But despite the honking car horns and shouts of solidarity outside the Hennepin County Courthouse, the mood could not be considered happy. “This is definitely a victory, but there’s still a lot of work to do,” says State Rep. John Thompson, a Democrat who became involved in politics after a police officer fatally shot his friend Philando Castile in a St. Paul suburb five years ago. “This fight has been going on since before I was born, back to the days of Martin Luther King, Jr., and before him.”
