Black Lives Matter

Philly police want city residents to help prepare them for community responses to the Chauvin verdict after their botched responses last year’s unrest.

On Thursday, medical experts testified at Chauvin’s murder trial, emphatically rejecting the defense theory that Floyd's drug use and underlying health problems killed him.

Jurors at the murder trial of ex-Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin have been told that he received extensive training in how to defuse tense situations.

Derek Chauvin is charged with murder and manslaughter, accused of killing the 46-year-old George Floyd by kneeling on Floyd's neck for 9 minutes, 29 seconds.

When Floyd was taken away by paramedics, Charles McMillian, a 61-year-old bystander who recognized Chauvin from the neighborhood, told the officer he didn't respect him.

Donald Williams returned to the stand Tuesday, a day after he described seeing Floyd struggle for air and his eyes rolling back into his head as he slowly faded away.

The trial is expected to last about four weeks at the courthouse in downtown Minneapolis, which has been fortified with concrete barriers, fencing, and barbed and razor wire.

The proposed measure would prohibit use of no-knock warrants, a practice Kentucky police engaged in when they fatally shot Breonna Taylor.

This past year has been defined by incalculable loss at the hands of coronavirus, police brutality, and political violence. But have we really faced our collective grief?

The process of picking a jury has started, even though prosecutors have asked to halt proceedings until their effort to add a third-degree murder charge is resolved.
