Good morning to our viewers in the United States and all around the world. This is a Special Edition of new day. Im John Berman alongside brianna keilar. The jury found Derek Chauvin guilty on all three counts. Chauvin is in a Prison Cell this morning and he may remain there for decades after his sentence is handed down in two months. Overnight at the intersection where George Floyd drew his final breath, celebrations and a sense of overwhelming relief. Say his name. George floyd. Say his name. George floyd. Say his name. George floyd. Say his name. George floyd. George Floyds Family. His brother says he can now sleep for the first time in a year. President biden and Vice President harris called the Floyd Family soon after the verdict was announced, the president urging people to confront Police Brutality and systemic racism. I cant breathe. Those are George Floyds last words. We cant let those words die with him. We have to keep hearing those words. We must not turn away. We cant turn away. Once the verdict was read, americans took to The Streets in city after city to celebrate the decision. We begin now with Adrienne Broaddus whos now live in minneapolis. Adrienne, whats happening there . Reporter its claalm. We just heard a rattle behind us, but that was a member of the national guard adjusting one of the fences behind us. The barricades and fencing is still in place, but take a look at this. The headline in the Star Tribune this morning sums it all up. It says, convicted. This is the headline that minnesotans and others beyond minnesota would hope but feared they would not see this headline. If you ask them why, they would say based on the past history. Some cite castillo who was shot and killed. The aftermath was caught on video. They thought the video would have been enough in that case, but it wasnt. You can imagine when the verdict was read yesterday, there was a symphony of celebration. We heard cars honking their horns, we heard people cheering, and we also saw people crying openly in the middle of The Street. The tears were tears of joy, not happy because of what happened to floyd, but thankful and grateful they were finally seen. Listen in to what floyds brother had to say. Being able to know that its justice for africanamerican people, just people of color, period, in this world, this is monumental, this is historic, this is a pivotal moment in his history. Reporter a lot of people were asking yesterday how was the Floyd Family able to be so calm amid all of the chaos, and the family leans heavily on their faith. I spoke with George Floyds aunt earlier this morning. I also talked to his cousin. I said how will you be able to forgive Derek Chauvin. They said thats what their faith teaches them do. They said forgiving isnt always easy. They said they will forgive chauvin but not forget. Ill never forget the conversation i had with 9yearold Judea Reynolds about a month after the killing of George Floyd. She told us she begged her Cousin Darnella Frazer to take her to the store. She wanted to purchase snacks, specifically starbursts. Finally toward the end of the day, darnella said, okay, lets go. She said if we didnt walk to the store at that time, they would still kill us. I said who is they . And she said police. The 9yearold has the foresight to see the power of the video. And weve seen that video over the last three weeks. Perhaps the most important witness in this case that has ended in this Guilty Verdict. Adrienne, thank you so much, live for us in minneapolis. The sentencing for Derek Chauvin is scheduled for june. So what factors are going to go into the Judges Decision here and long can he stay in prison . Lets check in with laura jarrett, anchor of cnns early start. What sort of snechentence is he facing . Hes facing significant time but maybe not enough. Hes facing charges. The maximum ranges anywhere from 10 to 40 years, but chauvin is not going to serve anywhere near close to that and heres why. The judge has to follow the sentencing guidelines and take into account a persons prior history. Chauvin doesnt have any, so that puts him in the lower Sentencing Range on each of these three charges, more in the neighborhood of 10 to 15 years. Also important to note, even though he was convicted of three different crimes, in minnesota, sentences generally run concurrently. What does that mean . Hes going to do all three all at once rather than serving them back to back one on top of the other. On top of that, the prosecution has said theyre going to ask the judge to go higher than that recommendation. Explain that to us. Right. So given the disturbing facts of the case, the prosecutors are going to charge certain aggravating circumstances call for more time in prison, and theyve pointed out to five different things here. Theyre going to argue floyd was particularly vulnerable because he was handcuffed and unconscious and the crime was cruel. We heard the bystanders begging for his life. Three others have to do more with the situation as opposed to floyd. One, show Vines Abuse of his authority as a Police Officer, the fact that it happened as part of a group of people, the other officers involved. Also children were present. You remember the testimony of the 9yearold Girl Adrienne mentioned in her piece. Thank you so much. I want to bring in the Founder And President of the witness, a black christian collective. Jamar, ive been looking forward to speaking with you. You say your emotions run the gamut from relief to cautious optimism to gratitude. Why . Why that range . Well, you can hear from the reactions of other people who heard the verdict in this trial. Its as if we won one small battle in a very long war, so there is the immediate sense of joy and of exhilaration and exhaling from all of this Tension Weve been holding in. And at the same time, theres the reality its just one decision, one small verdict, a very important verdict, but in a much broader scope of issues regarding policing and the criminal Justice System and the way black people are treated in america. So we have to feel all of these emotions at once and make space for all of them because honestly theres no right emotion in an instance like this. Do you see it as one data point, or do you see this as a verdict that opens up the possibility of other juries, of americans as they did in this case, seeing very much the humanity of George Floyd . Do you think this changes the range of possibility for outcomes in other cases . I do hope this verdict helps to set a precedent that even people who have a badge can be guilty of murder. Its more than just poor judgment. Its taking someones life unlawfully, and they will be held accountable, but realistically, look what it took to secure a conviction in this case. We had incontrovertible Video Evidence from multiple angles, we had Eyewitness Testimony from multiple people including children, we had historic uprisings in 2020 all to put eyes on this case, and in many, many, many, many more cases, we dont have all of that. The justice of the situation is still clear, but look at all that it took just to convince people that this was murder. And so in that sense, im not sure that this particular case is going to completely change the way that we look at convicting Police Officers who are guilty of milt. Jemar, i want your take on the significance of George Floyd as a person going forward, and i want to play what Speaker Nancy Pelosi said about this. Im not doing this to troll nancy pelosi, but i think its important to frame how we think about things, again, looking forward. So listen to this. Thank you, George Floyd, for sacrificing your life for justice, for being there to call out to your mom. How heartbreaking was that, calling out for your mom, i cant breathe, but because of you and because of thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice, your name will always be synonymous with justice. Thank you, George Floyd, for your sacrifice. Why dont you think thats the right way to think about this. I think people who say that George Floyds life was a sacrifice for justice are well meaning but misguided, and honestly in 2021 after all weve seen, we have to do better. George floyd did not ask to be a sacrifice. He should be alive today. Moreover, it shouldnt take the death of black people, people of color, or anyone to show what justice looks like or to call this nation to its higher ideals. That should just be the case regardless, and it shouldnt take the murder of yet another person in order for us to see what justice looks like. And this is another instance of what it looks like to value black life. We shouldnt treat black life and discard it in the sense that it takes someone being killed in order for us to understand justice. Yeah. It was an important outcome, but certainly it was a bittersweet one, and we heard that from so many people. Jem jemar tisby, thank you so much. George Floyds Family getting a personal call.

President biden called the death of George Floyd a giant step in the justice toward america, but so much more needs to be done. Most men and women who wear the badge serve their communities honorably, but those few who fail to meet that standard must be held accountable, and they were today. One was. No one should be above the law, and Todays Verdict sends that message. Lets bring in a former Police Officer and also the author of Police Brutality matters. Joe, i know you were surprised by the verdict. Tell us what message this sends to Law Enforcement. Well, thank you for having me. It sends a strong message that you have to follow Policy Procedures in your training. For years, Law Enforcement has been given a pass. Disregarding policy and procedures was okay. Its a new day, and im glad to see the verdict that we have. It was remarkable to watch the video from the Courtroom Yesterday after the verdict came in, guilty on all three counts. And then after the judge revoked bail we just played it Derek Chauvin stood up and put his hand behind his back right away. It was as if to say, i knew this was coming. Its also a vivid image for society to see, but what do police say when they see it . Ive been communicating with one of my dear friends whos a Police Officer overnight, and he thinks this is a good message for officers to see. Its definitely a good message for officers who follow policy and procedure. As the president said, we do have bad apples. For a long time, the culture of policing has been protecting the bad apples. If youre a good cop, you want accountability. Theres nothing like a bad cop when it comes to good policing. Good cops hate bad officers. And we have more good officers than bad. This sends a strong message we no longer are going to tolerate bad officers, and i appreciate the prosecution doing an excellent job. As prosecutors, we especially me, ive never seen a Prosecution Team go so hard at a Police Officer. Normally Police Officers get the benefit of the doubt with the community as well as in the courtroom, so im extremely grateful. And now that we have Police Reform that was passed in the house, now were waiting for the senate. This sends a message to every taxpayers, over A Billion Dollars in bad police payouts will soon be coming to an end. What do you want to see in those efforts . Those efforts for Justice Reform and Policing Reform . What is essential to moving the needle further . I would like to see real police legislation. For one, a special prosecutor team, prosecutors who specialize in prosecuting police. Weve seen officers get prosecuted in court. It still seems like they get the been fit of the doubt. These guys did an excellent job of coming down and putting Police Management on the stand, training, Policy Procedures. If you notice these cases, theyre habitual in policies and training. Im so glad to see the Prosecution Team coming out and doing an amazing job. I would definitely like to see a prosecuting team and the removal of qualified immunity because taxpayers are paying out over A Billion Dollars. It makes no sense. Youre paying out tacks for bad policing, and that needs to stop. I didnt mean to interrupt, joe. You made a good point about the feeling of americans. Its the zeal that the prosecutors did their work and the police came forward almost in yeuna nimiety. We appreciate your insight. Thanks for having me. Another trial in George Floyds death is still on the horizon, this time for the three other officers who were part of the arrest. What Chauvins Conviction could mean for them next.

So overnight people gathering for a memorial for George Floyd outside a market where he was murdered, now questions about what Derek Chauvins Guilty Verdict means for the three other former Minneapolis Officers charged in the death of George Floyd. Shimon prokupecz live with more on that. This should be interesting to see especially after The OneGuilty Verdict. Reporter it certainly will be, john. That trial will start to take place on august 23rd, and thats now going to shift the focus of the prosecutors in that case to put together as they continue to proceed in that case. Were going hear from many of the same witnesses, the same evidence, going to see all of that body camera, the bodyworn camera replayed for a new jury. Those three defendants, those three former officers, are going to be tried together. They would have been tried together with George Floyd had it not been a pandemic. The only reason why the cases were separated was because of the restrictions related to the pandemic, so thats why they werent all tried together. But certainly were going to see a lot of the same witnesses, a lot of the same evidence, and a lot of the same circumstances are going to be presented to a new jury. Of course, those officers are charged with aiding and abetting, manslaughter and murder. But interestingly, john, by then, by the time that trial gets started, Derek Chauvin should have been sentenced. So were going to see how thats going to play into the trial, john. You would expect the lawyers for the three other officers to say, make Derek Chauvin was the bat guy. This is all his fault. Well see what Defense Strategy they choose. Developing this morning, a protest in columbus, ohio, the scene of another deadly Police Shooting. This happened minutes before the verdict was handed down in the Derek Chauvin trial, and the victim here is a 16yearold girl. According to police, the officer fired after the teen tried to cut two other girls with a knife, but in the graphic Body Camera Video of the incident, it shows a very chaotic scene, its incredibly difficult to discern what is happening here, and there are still so many questions that need to be answered. Cnns Ryan Young is in columbus with the latest. Ryan, what are you learn about this . Its difficult to understand whats happening in this video. Reporter yeah, absolutely. And, look. Protesters took to The Street last night to say they were very upset about this. The fact that they released the video so quickly, you can understand what the city was trying to do, the position their officer was in. There was some sort of disturbance call. There was some sort of fight going on. When the officer arrives, they made a splitsecond decision. Were going to warn you the video is difficult to watch. Its disturbing. Were going to show it to you in realtime the first time through. Take a watch. Hey, whats going on . Whats going on . Whats going on . Hey, hey, hey. Get down. Get down. Get down. [ bleep ]]. Reporter so the young lady was 16 years old. The officer arrived and saw a knife and opened fire, unfortunately shooting that lady four times. She did die. Weve also had the video slowed down, but this Police Department actually slowed this video down as they released the video. Take a watch of this version of it as they show what their officer was dealing with. So im not sure you still see this video, but right now the officer approaches, theres a knife, theres some movement there, and he opens fire. Of course, there are a lot of people upset with this decision, so a lot of questions will be going on. The officer is put on paid administrative leave. It normally happens after a shooting like this. On top of that, theres called in the community for more of an investigation, but listen to what the mayor had to sadyring this difficult situation. Not just the mayor. Im a father. The city of columbus lost a 15yearold Girl today. We know based on this foot age, this officer took action to protect others in the community, but a familys grieving tonight, and this young 15yearold Girl will never be coming home. Reporter you can understand all the emotions that are inv involved in this. Brianna, look. There are so many questions attached to this. Another policeinvolved shooting. Of course, others will say the officer was protecting the other young ladies. Its reporting the young lady may have been calling police herself for help. So many emotions especially when it comes to policeinvolved Shooting With Black Youth at this point. Its a very difficult day ahead for columbus. Well see what happens as the day plays out. Brianna . It is. We know youll be digging into those questions for us. Thank you. In justice across generations, George Floyds killing likened to a black persons killing years ago.

Please help us get every bottle back. Its been a long journey, and its been less than a year, and the person that comes to my mind is 1955, and to me he was the first George Floyd. That was Emmett Till. Wow. Wow. I did i was on cnn with deborah watts, and she just brought him back to life. Wow. People forgot about him. Yeah. But he was the first George Floyd. That is the brother of George Floyd reacting to the Derek Chauvin murder, likening his Brothers Death to the lynching of Emmett Till 65 years ago. Joining us now is the son of Martin Luther King jr. It was so interesting to hear philonise floyd talk about Emmett Till and its remarkable how hes become close to the family of Emmett Till. I think its crucial that we dont look at this verdict as an end in anything, but im wondering if you can place this in history for us as we think about Emmett Till and we think about George Floyd. Whats the historical significance of what were seeing today . Well, obviously the historical significance is the fact that there was a trial specifically and a conviction was received, the verdict of guilty on three counts. That, i dont believe happened with any other cases or if it did happen, it certainly was not a victory in this regard. So thats what sets a tone to some degree. Plus, theres so many more people around the world who were able to see what happened to George Floyd because of the pandemic. People were at home, so instantly everyone saw this very, very incident where the officer was judge, jury, and executioner. So for the jury to come down with a verdict of guilt, it comes down to like, okay, maybe there is some justice that can be received through the Justice System. Theres something overwhelming though. You saw philonise floyd. He got caught up thinking about the history, thinking about the fact that were talking about multiple generations now where the struggle is still very real. Theres no question about that, and my heart and our familys prayers continue to go out for the Floyd Family. You know, at the end of the day when you talk about justice, there was a verdict, but nothing can bring back their brother, and, you know, that is that is thats the challenge, and theyll have to live with that for a long time. The fact of the matter is, as you say, these incidents continue to happen. Weve got a lot of work to do. Maybe this is the beginning of the restoration of people beginning to have some degree of faith in the system because black people and many people have lost faith in the criminal Justice System. Yeah, look. It was Amanda Gorman who wrote overnight a victory would be George Floyd being alive, but i also appreciate and welcome your saying this is also a moment of hope and a chance for us to look forward and hope for things to change. What specifically would you like to see happen now or next . I know theres the George FloydPolicing Act that is being discussed in congress right now. I dont know that anythings going to happen with it. Among other things, it would ban Choke Holds, Overhaul Noknock policies. What do you want to see . That would be the next step. Its sad were debating i mean its good to debate, but its sad that its not looking as promising as it should. That should be a slamdunk scenario. So thats one of the first things. I think the president has got to put his full weight behind the passing of that legislation, and hopefully somehow that will happen. I think also weve got to overall look at policing in general. Weve got to do an overhaul of policing. When i say that, i mean the officers being hired, psychological evaluations, strict psychological evaluations, hiring officers from the community where they police so they have a stake in the community, stakeholders. I think that would be one of the things that would help. I think the constantly retraining over and over. Why cant we apprehend suspects without killing them . We use Dodd D do that in the ol. Sometimes you cant apprehend them without shooting them, but were Training Officers to shoot and kill. Martin Luther King iii, thank you for joining us.

A 2006 case coming to light similar to what happened to George Floyd, but with a very different outcome. A Black Female officer was fired after trying to stop a white male officer from using a Choke Hold on a handcuffed Black Man who said he couldnt breathe. That man survived. After more than a decade of legal fighting, a judge recently ruled that the former officer was wrongly terminated for intervening. Officer horn will now receive her full pension and backpay. She and her attorney are joining me now. Congratulations to you. Last we spoke, you were in the middle of this legal battle that has now vindicated you. Take us back to that moment in 2006. I think its very important for people to understand because of some of the parallels that we see with the George Floyd case. When you decided to intervene and stop a fellow officer from choking a Black Man who was handcuffed. Well, i answered an officerintrouble call. Once i got there and went inside the house, he was being punched in the face but he was already handcuffed. I helped get him out of the house. And when we got him out of the house, greg turned around and started choking him. I said, greg, youre choking him. He didnt stop and so i grabbed his arm. Today because of that he lives. You were ultimately disciplined and then you were fired. Thats what happened a year shy of receiving your full pension, and thats where we were when we spoke last year shortly after George Floyds death. You were fighting for this vindication and you have just received it. I want to read something the judge said. Judge ward said the city of buffalo has recognized the error and has acknowledge the need to undo an injustice from the past. The legal system at the very least can be the mechanism to help justice prevail even belatedly. What message does this send to other officers, do you think . Well, the message that it sends is that the culture has changed, that the old way of doing things is no longer, so, you know, officers have a duty to intervene. And with Cariols Law being passed in buffalo, they have to intervene. Theres no way around it anymore. There was damage, cariol that cannot be undone. You missed out on years on the force doing the job you loved and you had to fight dearly in order to be vindicated and receive the benefits you had earned, by as you mentioned, the man who you intervened on behalf of lived. Do you think that your pension would have been restore and your reputation revived if it were not for the Floyd Case .
