MINNEAPOLIS (AP) A Minnesota judge has found aggravating factors in the death of George Floyd.
The ruling made public Wednesday paves the way for the possibility of a longer sentence for former Minneapolis Officer Derek Chauvin.
Former Deputy Independent Counsel Sol Wisenberg reacts on ‘The Faulkner Focus’ to President Biden and Rep. Maxine Waters controversial comments ahead of the Derek Chauvin trial verdict.
Former Deputy Independent Counsel Sol Wisenberg told The Faulkner Focus Wednesday it’s extremely unlikely President Joe Biden and Rep. Maxine Waters,’ D-Calif., controversial comments would result in a reversal of the trial verdict of former Minneapolis Officer Derek Chauvin.
Wisenberg’s comments come as Waters visited Minnesota before the verdict was announced, and called on protesters to get more confrontational in the event that a jury opted not to convict Chauvin in the death of George Floyd.
