SALT LAKE CITY — The chants and signs were the same, but a sense of renewed hope appeared to replace anger at a protest Tuesday evening in Salt Lake City soon after a jury convicted former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin of murder in the death of George Floyd.
"It knocks the wind out of you. I've never seen justice before today, and that was a long road to see it," said Lex Scott, founder of the Black Lives Matter Utah Chapter as a rally formed at the Salt Lake City Department of Public Safety.
