"Derek Chauvin's Prison Interview and Supreme Court Appeal Denied in George Floyd Murder Case"

Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted for the murder of George Floyd, broke his silence in his first prison interview, calling the trial and sentencing a "sham." Chauvin, who was sentenced to 22-and-a-half years in prison, spoke about the media narrative, his training, and the use of force technique used on Floyd. Another officer involved, J Alexander Kueng, also spoke out, expressing hope for an open-minded approach in the future. The US Department of Justice recently announced findings of a probe into the Minneapolis Police Department, citing violations of the Constitution and federal law. Chauvin's appeal was rejected by the US Supreme Court.
