Derek Chauvin has been convicted on all charges in connection with the murder of George Floyd.

He has been found guilty of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter.

Sentencing will be held in approximately eight weeks according to Judge Peter Cahill of the Hennepin County court.

Regarding that sentence, CNN reports: "The maximum sentence for second-degree unintentional murder is imprisonment of not more than 40 years. The maximum sentence for third-degree murder is imprisonment of not more than 25 years. The maximum sentence for second-degree manslaughter is 10 years and/or $20,000."

Prosecutors moved to have Mr. Chauvin's bail revoked. The motion was granted and he was immediately handcuffed and taken into custody.

Floyd's family released a statement through their Attorney, Ben Crump, ""Painfully earned justice has arrived for George Floyd's family and the community here in Minneapolis."
