Washington. The third-degree charge of murder on police officer Derek Chauvin, the main accused in the case of the death of black George Floyd, has now been increased to second degree. Second degree charge will also remain intact. In addition, 3 other policemen, Thomas Lane, Jay Alexander Kung and Tau Thao, will be charged with second-degree murder with co-operation and abetment in the murder. No charge was previously imposed on these three.
MP Amy Klobuchar reported Wednesday that Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison decided to increase the charge on the accused. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has reacted strongly in this matter. He said that I was surprised by the death of George Floyd during his arrest in America. My message to President Trump and all of America is that racial violence should have no place in our society. Most people of the world believe the same.
New allegations leveled in the interest of justice: Attorney General
Attorney General Keith Ellison, while announcing the increase of the charge, said it was in the interest of justice. He also said that it would be difficult to punish a former police officer. History tells that there are tough challenges. So far in Minnesota, only one police officer has been convicted of killing a civilian.
