George Floyd is not on trial. Derek Chauvin is on trial, to tell his side of the story. A luxury that was not afforded to George Floyd and countless other men and women within the Black community.
Eric Nelson, attorney of Derek Chauvin, says Chauvin & officers “diverted their attention” from the care of George Floyd & to "threat that was growing in front of them."
The "threat" Nelson is referring to is the growing number of people begging for Chauvin to lift his knee.
