George Floyd murder trial starts


“I can’t breathe” and “Blacklives matter” two slogans shakes entire United States 10 months back. #Blacklivesmatter is surge like global moment against racism across all Western nations. George Perry Floyd Jr. was an African American man killed during an arrest after a store clerk alleged he had passed a counterfeit $20 bill in Minneapolis. 
Derek Chauvin, one of four police officers who arrived on the scene, knelt on Floyd's neck for a period initially reported to be 8 minutes and 46 seconds. Floyd, a Black man, died after Chauvin, a white 19-year veteran of the department, pressed his knee into Floyd's neck for several minutes. Floyd is yelling “I can’t breathe!” “I can’t breathe!” and died on May 25th, 2020.





The sad demise of George Floyd is also one of the reasons for Donald Trump downfall in U.S. President Elections. The trial begins in Minneapolis on police officer Derek Chauvin. Ex-Police officer denies murder and manslaughter charges but if convicted could face up to 40 years in imprisonment. Jurors heard witnesses describe the sorrowful final moments of Floyd life. Derek Chauvin’s legal team put the blame on Floyd insisting that poor health and drugs are the reasons for the death. It is very difficult for them to prove Floyd’s ill health. Not only U.S. even entire world is looking for end result of the trial. The first witness called in the trial against Derek Chauvin in the death of George Floyd was a Minneapolis 911 dispatcher who called police while witnessing Floyd's arrest.


Black Lives Matter (BLM) organized rallies in the United States and worldwide from May 30 onwards, with protesters. BLM protests were consequential for different reasons among those who voted Trump and among those who voted Biden. Protests over the killing of black people by police officers in the United States of America occupied a large part of 2020. Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests matter in 2020’s US Presidential Elections, which was also shadowed by the COVID-19 pandemic. According to one survey, nine of every 10 voters said the protests over police violence were a factor in their voting.
