State vs. Derek Chauvin - Order Denying Motion

The State also notes social science research which it contends “demonstrates that ‘adults
view Black girls as less innocent and more adult-like than their white peers’” and suggests that
“observers discount the experiences of young Black girls” and perceive them “as needing less
protection and nurturing than white girls.” State’s July 7 Letter, at 2, 6. No evidence of any
such social science research was presented by the State to this Court prior to the June 25
sentencing. Be that as it may, it is the State that is injecting supposed racial presumptions in this
case, not this Court. This Court never mentioned in its Sentencing Memorandum Opinion the
racial or ethnic status of any of the observers at the scene on May 25 or of the three young
women and nine year-old J.R. who are the focus of the State’s July 17 Letter.

Derek Chauvin found guilty of George Floyd’s murder

Derek Chauvin has been convicted of murder for killing George Floyd by kneeling on his neck for more than nine minutes, a crime that prompted waves of protests in support of racial justice in the US and across the world.

The jury swiftly and unanimously convicted Chauvin of all the charges he faced – second- and third-degree murder, and manslaughter – after concluding that the white former Minneapolis police officer killed the 46-year-old Black man in May through a criminal assault, by pinning him to the ground so he could not breathe.
