The murder trial of former Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin is set to resume on Monday.
Monday marks the beginning of the third week of the trial. Chauvin, 45, is charged with second and third-degree murder and manslaughter in the death of Floyd. Defense attorney Eric Nelson has argued that the now-fired White officer did what he was trained to do and that Floyd’s death was caused by illegal drugs and underlying medical problems. Mary Moriarty, a former Hennepin County chief public defender, told KARE 11 that the state could call upon another medical witness and employ a ‘Spark of Life’ testimony, which would allow Floyd’s relatives to "talk about who the person was in life."More Related News
