Chauvin was facing charges of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter for kneeling on Floyd\u2019s neck for over nine minutes, ultimately killing him.<\/p>\n<p>According to <em>CNN,<\/em> Chauvin was found guilty of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter.<\/p>\n<p>George Floyd\u2019s life was unjustly snuffed out on May 25, 2020 outside of Cup Foods in the Twin Cities.
