Three Ex-Officers Are Facing Federal Civil Rightsights Charges, According To George Floyd.

Three ex-officers are facing federal civil rights charges, according to George Floyd.

In Minneapolis, a federal civil rights trial for three former US police officers charged with the death of George Floyd has commenced.

Three ex-officers are facing federal civil rights charges, according to George Floyd.

Senior officer Derek Chauvin was assisted by J Alexander Kueng, Thomas Lane, and Tou Thao in detaining Mr Floyd for allegedly passing a counterfeit banknote.


Before he died, Chauvin was caught on camera slamming his knee into the unarmed black man's neck for more than nine minutes.


His death, which was seen on video by a bystander, sparked worldwide protests in 2020.

Chauvin was convicted of murder in June of last year and is now serving time in a state prison. He avoided a second trial by pleading guilty to federal charges of breaching Mr Floyd's civil rights in December.

The cops "wilfully violated" Mr Floyd of his civil liberties during the attempted arrest, according to federal prosecutors, who have presented a list of 48 witnesses they could call to the stand.


On Thursday, the jury selection process was finished in a single day. With a full bench of 12 jurors and six alternates, the court intends to begin opening arguments next Monday.


According to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune newspaper, two of the chosen jurors look to be Asian, while the others are Caucasian. The jury will be made up of five males and seven women.


One jury was questioned by Judge Paul Magnuson about whether his daughter's involvement in protests following Mr Floyd's murder would allow him to stay impartial.
