A jury was due to hear closing arguments on Tuesday in the federal trial of three former Minneapolis police officers charged with violating the civil rights of George Floyd during May 2020 arrest that lead to his murder.
Tou Thao, 36; J. Alexander Kueng, 28; and Thomas Lane, 38, have all pleaded not guilty to charges they willfully denied Floyd's right to receive medical aid in police custody. Thao and Kueng are also charged with willfully breaching the 46-year-old Black man's rights by not intervening while their colleague Derek Chauvin, who is white, knelt on Floyd's neck for more than nine minutes.
The men said they did not grasp that Floyd was dying beneath Chauvin's knee, and assumed that, with 18 years on the force, the officer knew what he was doing.
