New Delhi: Former Minneapolis policeman Derek Chauvin was convicted of George Floyd's murder. He was found guilty by a jury of his peers. Today, a jury did the right thing. But true justice requires much more. Michelle and I send our prayers to the Floyd family, and we stand with all those who are committed to guaranteeing every American the full measure of justice that George and so many others have been denied. pic.twitter.com/mihZQHqACV — Barack Obama (@BarackObama) April 20, 2021 WATCH Say her name: Makiyah Bryant Today at 3:30 pm EDT, the court in Minneapolis announced the jury had reached a verdict in the trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin.
