Former Minneapolis officer convicted of aiding in George Floyd's killing

Tou Thao, one of the four former Minneapolis police officers involved in the death of George Floyd, has been found guilty of aiding and abetting manslaughter for his role in the killing. Thao held back bystanders while his colleagues restrained Floyd. The judge called Thao's actions "objectively unreasonable" during the arrest that led to Floyd's death. Thao, Kueng, and Lane were previously convicted of federal civil rights violations in connection with Floyd's killing and respectively sentenced to 3 1/2 years, 3 years, and 2 1/2 years in prison.
