Derek Chauvin has been released from jail after posting a $1 million bond, according to FOX9. Chauvin was arrested and charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter just four days after the Memorial Day death of George Floyd at the intersection of E. 38th Street and Chicago Avenue in Minneapolis.
Chauvin was the officer seen kneeling on George Floyd's neck in what is now a viral video. Chauvin's arrest was followed by the arrest of the other three officers who stood by during the incident.
The death of George Floyd led to months of protest and civil unrest.
The trial date for Derek Chauvin, Tou Thao, Thomas Lane, and J. Alexander Kueng has been set for March 8.
