The remaining three officers who stood by and did nothing to stop former Officer Derek Chauvin from killing George Floyd have been charged with aiding and abetting murder. And finally, Chauvin’s murder charges have been upgraded to the second-degree.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has announced that state Attorney General Keith Ellison will help to lead the prosecution of any cases arising from the murder of George Floyd. This is a step in the right direction because it is clear County Attorney Freeman is dragging his feet and cannot act with impartiality. We must now call on AG Ellison and continue demanding County Attorney Freeman charge and arrest ALL the officers with murder. Keep fighting. Stay strong.

Officer Derek Chauvin has been arrested and charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter. There are still three other officers, Thomas Lane, Tou Thao and J. Alexander Kueng, who must also be charged for participating in George's murder. And currently, dozens of protestors have been detained and arrested for peacefully protesting. We're calling for County Attorney Michael Freeman to press murder charges against all three other officers and release the protestors immediately. Src: ColorofChange.org
