Derek Chauvin to appeal George Floyd murder conviction to US Supreme Court
Fox News
Ex-police officer Derek Chauvin will appeal his conviction for the murder of George Floyd to the U.S. Supreme Court, according to his legal team.
"This criminal trial generated the most amount of pretrial publicity in history," Chauvin's attorney William Morhmann said. "More concerning are the riots which occurred after George Floyd’s death (and) led the jurors to all express concerns for their safety in the event they acquitted Mr. Chauvin — safety concerns which were fully evidenced by surrounding the courthouse in barbed wire and National Guard troops during the trial and deploying the National Guard throughout Minneapolis prior to jury deliberations."

The Minnesota Supreme Court declined to hear the case, effectively siding with Chauvin's conviction. The former officer is serving more than 22 years in prison.
