George Floyd

Chauvin is currently serving concurrent state and federal sentences in an Arizona prison. The three-person Court of Appeals says it will issue its opinion within 90 days.

The review follows an audit of police-involved deaths under the tenure of former Chief Medical Officer David Fowler, who testified that George Floyd's death was caused by heart disease and drug use.

Former police officer Thomas Lane, who pleaded guilty to a state charge of aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter in the killing of George Floyd, was sentenced on Wednesday.

The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles declined a request that George Floyd be granted a posthumous pardon for a 2004 drug arrest made by a now-indicted ex-Houston police officer.

J. Alexander Kueng was sentenced to three years and Tou Thao got 3 1/2 years — penalties that a judge said reflected their level of culpability in a case that sparked worldwide protests.

On bodycam footage, officers are shown confronting two young Black adults, Taniyah Pilgrim and Messiah Young, after the pair were out past curfew following protests over George Floyd's death.

Thomas Lane pleaded guilty to a state charge of aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter in George Floyd's killing. The state is recommending a sentence of three years in prison.

A year after his conviction, the former Minneapolis police officer is asking a state court to send his case back to Hennepin County; order a new trial elsewhere; or order him to be resentenced.

A jury found that Thomas Lane, J. Alexander Kueng and Tou Thao all deprived Floyd of his right to medical care, and that two of them failed to intervene as Derek Chauvin knelt on Floyd's neck.

A major part of the three former police officers' defense is that they were inadequately trained in intervention and that they deferred to the senior officer on the scene.
