George Floyd’s Murderer Sentenced To 22.5 Years In Jail

Former U-S policeman, DEREK CHAUVIN was yesterday sentenced to 22 and a half years in prison for the murder of African American GEORGE FLOYD, the killing that sparked America’s biggest demonstrations for racial justice in decades.

The 45-year-old CHAUVIN gave his condolences to the FLOYD family in a Minneapolis court before Judge PETER CAHILL handed down a lesser sentence than the 30 years the prosecution had sought.

The judge added that the judgement had not been based on public opinion but on the law and the facts specific to the case, as he acknowledged the deep and tremendous pain the case had caused, particularly to the FLOYD family.

The Federal Government has reportedly reached out to the National Association of Resident Doctors to forestall a looming strike by the association.
