Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo's scathing rebuke of the former officer who is charged with murder in the death of George Floyd was rare, and that his searing testimony was followed in step by a string of other law enforcement officers was remarkable. Derek Chauvin was not protected behind the "blue wall of silence" for several reasons, according to experts, including a hope to bolster morale within the police department. "I think the officers who are testifying want to model what good cops look like, both for the jury and the public, in contrast to Chauvin," one legal analyst said. |
