Chauvin waives right to testify, rests case at murder trial for Floyd arrest Reuters 6 hrs ago By Jonathan Allen MINNEAPOLIS (Reuters) - Former Minneapolis policeman Derek Chauvin on Thursday waived his right to testify to the jury about his part in the deadly arrest last May of George Floyd as both sides rested their cases at his murder trial, the most high-profile police misconduct case in decades.
