a prosecution led by the attorney general of the state of minnesota himself, keith ellison. let s listen to what he had to say after judge cahill announced that 22 1/2 year sentence. like the conviction of derek chauvin two months ago, today s sentencing is not justice, but it is another moment of real accountability on the road to justice. it s difficult to see anyone lose their freedom. but seeing somebody lose their life through torture, over nine and a half minutes, is incomparebly worse. those minutes and seconds are in, inerasebly sealed in the minds of the people across the world who watched george floyd die. derek chauvin is waking up this morning and for the foreseeable future, he will wake up in the most secure unit in this state s most secure prison.
