Watch live as murder trial of former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin continues

Court proceedings have resumed in the trial of Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer who knelt on George Floyd’s neck for nine minutes in the street last summer. Having helped spark a nationwide (and worldwide) uprising against police racism and violence, he faces charges of manslaughter and murder.

So far, multiple expert witnesses have testified that contrary to what some of Mr Chauvin’s defenders have claimed, Mr Floyd did die from lack of oxygen rather than some other underlying cause. The prosecution is expected to rest its case as soon as today or tomorrow.
