MINNEAPOLIS — Tou Thao, the former Minneapolis police officer who nearly three years ago kept back bystanders concerned for George Floyd's well-being as he died under the knee of convicted cop Derek Chauvin, was found guilty Tuesday of aiding and abetting manslaughter.
The verdict from Hennepin County District Judge Peter Cahill comes in the last case to be prosecuted in either state or federal court for the four officers who played varying roles in the killing at 38th Street and Chicago Avenue on May 25, 2020, which was decried globally as an especially brazen act of police brutality.
