Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin allegedly kept his knee pressed into George Floyd's neck, even after a fellow officer told him that Floyd didn't have a pulse, according to a criminal complaint.

An attorney for George Floyd's family called for the third-degree murder charge against Officer Derek Chauvin to be upgraded to first-degree murder.

“She is devastated by Mr. Floyd’s death and her utmost sympathy lies with his family, with his loved ones and with everyone who is grieving this tragedy,” attorneys for Kellie Chauvin wrote in a post on social media about her decision to dissolve her marriage to former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin.

Six straight days of demonstrations, some of which have turned violent, have public leaders pondering what’s next.
