Description:

A judge has set bail at $1.25m for Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer who has been charged with second-degree murder in connection to the killing of George Floyd.

Chauvin, 44, appeared in court by video link on Monday to face charges of murder and manslaughter after he was filmed kneeling on Floyd’s neck for nearly nine minutes, despite his cries of “I can’t breathe.”

He said almost nothing during an 11-minute hearing, and remains detained in Minnesota’s maximum security prison in Oak Park Heights. (Guardian)
