Film takes ‘another look at Floyd’s death:’ Post Millennial

By Darian Douraghy

THE POST MILLENNIAL – Former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin, who is currently serving 21 years in federal prison over the death of George Floyd, characterized his trial process as a "sham" as he made his first comments to the media since Floyd's death.

Chauvin's remarks came in an interview from The Fall of Minneapolis, a new documentary that takes another look at Floyd's death, the criminal prosecution of Chauvin, and how many in the world had responded to the event, reports the Daily Mail.

The former police officer said that both his trial and sentencing were a "sham" and that responding emergency medical service personnel took far too long to show up on the scene, with Chauvin characterizing the length of time taken as "not normal." EMTs apparently took an entire 20 minutes to arrive, even with an ambulance bay existing a mere 8 blocks away.
