The decision to delay the trial for Derek Chauvin’s alleged accomplices was unopposed, but came at the end of a contentious hearing on other issues.

MINNEAPOLIS (CN) The state-court trial of three former Minneapolis police officers accused of aiding and abetting the murder of George Floyd has been delayed until next year pending the resolution of federal civil rights charges.
Hennepin County Judge Peter Cahill made the decision at the end of a contentious Thursday morning hearing in the cases of former officers Tou Thao, Thomas Lane and J. Alexander Kueng. He pushed the officers’ August 2021 trial date back to March 7, 2022, citing the logistical problems of conducting two trials so close to each other along with the probability of heavy pretrial publicity.
By Erin Donaghue After the Derek Chauvin verdict
A judge in the Derek Chauvin case has found aggravating factors exist that would allow for a longer sentence than Minnesota sentencing guidelines suggest. The fired officer will face sentencing next month for his murder and manslaughter convictions in the murder of George Floyd.
Chauvin was convicted April 21 of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. A jury agreed with prosecutors who said Chauvin caused Floyd s death when he pinned him to the ground with a knee on his neck for more than nine minutes during a May 2020 arrest in Minneapolis.
Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin is taken into custody after he was found guilty on all three counts in his trial for the 2020 death of George Floyd, April 20, 2021, at the Hennepin County Courthouse in Minneapolis.
