Former officer Derek Chauvin knelt on the back of Floyd's neck for eight minutes and 46 seconds before he was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.Chauvin was initially charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter May 29, but his charges were upgraded while the other three officers involved in the arrest were formally charged by Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison Wednesday:CNN Breaking News The Minnesota attorney general is increasing charges against former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin to second-degree murder in George Floyd's death and also charging the other three officers involved in the incident, Sen. Amy Klobuchar says https://t.co/TOSDBV3q8x https://t.co/36qN8GMwVmCurry of a lifeless Floyd with Chauvin's knee on his neck to Instagram last week with the following caption:"GEORGE FLOYD&nbsp;If this image doesn't disturb you and piss you off, then idk. I've seen a lot of people speak up and try to articulate how fed up and angry they are. All good and well but it's the same same same reality we live in. George Floyd. George Floyd. George has a family. George didn't deserve to die. George pleaded for help and was just straight up ignored, which speaks loud and clear that his black life didn't matter. George was murdered. George wasn't human to that cop that slowly and purposefully took his life away.&nbsp;"Lee, Curry's brother-in-law, has also used his platform to speak out:Damion Lee WHEN WE SAY BLACK LIVES MATTER. THIS ISNT A “TREND” OR A “FAD”. WE FACE THESE STRUGGLES EVERY SINGLE DAY. #EmotionallyScarredWarriors head coach has also been a leading voice, as he has long been for social justice issues in the country:Steve Kerr learned to work together to promote a better future, even when such a possibility seems bleak. By actively acknowledging &amp; protesting the racism that has long defined our nation's history, the younger generation is providing the hope that we all need. Listen to them.Steve Kerr In other words, he was murdered. https://t.co/9VJ4Kp2GYaGolden State Warriors .@SteveKerr on the Flying Coach podcast🎙️ || https://t.co/nOOM60sqBV https://t.co/OdGG9KkjVKThe has been on hiatus since March 12 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has allowed players from around the league to participate in protests.
