The jury in the trial of Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis Police officer charged with murder in the death of George Floyd last may, has reached a verdict, according to reports.
The verdict will be read aloud in court between 3:30 and 4:00 p.m., the court said. The jury deliberated for four hours on Monday and resumed on Tuesday morning.
The 12 sequestered jurors have considered three weeks of testimony from 45 witnesses, including bystanders, police officials and medical experts, along with hours of video evidence in the most high-profile U.S. case involving accusations of police misconduct in decades.
Chauvin, who is white, has pleaded not guilty to second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree “depraved mind” murder and second-degree manslaughter.
