After George Floyd

“Journalists in Los Angeles County should be able to record police activity in public without fear of unlawful arrest,” journalist Josie Huang said.

In opening statements in the joint trial of a current and a former police officer in Aurora, Colorado, defense attorneys said the two followed department protocol.

Tou Thao is the last former Minneapolis police officer convicted in state court for his role in the killing of George Floyd on May 25, 2020.

NASCAR said Gragson violated the member conduct section of its rules.

The lawsuit focused on 18 of the many protests that erupted in New York City in the week after a police officer killed George Floyd in Minneapolis.

The Minnesota Supreme Court denied Chauvin’s petition, letting his conviction and 22 ½-year sentence stand. He faces long odds at the U.S. Supreme Court.

Minneapolis is embarking on a court-ordered overhaul of its police department. Chicago, where an effort began in 2019, is at "risk of failing" to meet its goals, a former official said.

The so-called pattern-or-practice investigation focused on widespread issues within the department following the 2020 killing of George Floyd.

Donald Williams of Minneapolis sued Tuesday in Hennepin County District Court.

Tou Thao, who already had been convicted in federal court of violating Floyd’s civil rights, was the last of the four former officers facing judgment in state court.

Chauvin’s attorney argued that the trial judge should have moved the case out of Minneapolis because of extensive pretrial publicity and unprecedented security precautions due to fears of violence.
