Minnesota AG Ellison argues convicted murderer Derek Chauvin acted with 'particular cruelty,' abused authority
Fox News
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison laid out the prosecution's case Friday for a tougher sentence than the 12 1/2 years that are recommended for former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, who was convicted of second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter on April 20 in the death of George Floyd.
Under sentencing guidelines in Minnesota, Chauvin will only be sentenced for the most serious count, which is second-degree murder and carries a recommended sentence of 12 1/2 years. Prosecutors are seeking an "upward sentencing departure" based on "five aggravating factors." They argue that Floyd was a "particularly vulnerable victim" as officers handcuffed his "arms behind his back and held him down in the prone position, with his chest against the pavement."
