DOJ to Announce Results of Investigation into Minneapolis Police Following George Floyd's Murder
TL;DR Summary
The murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin in May 2020 led to widespread protests and calls for police reform. Chauvin was found guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter and sentenced to 22 and a half years in prison. The other three officers involved were also convicted. A state review found that racial discrimination was endemic in the Minneapolis Police Department, and the city agreed to make sweeping changes in policing. Calls to "defund the police" fell short, but attitudes towards police reform are shifting.
