Xiao Wan expressed condolences to Freud’s family in court and did not apologize.

Former white American police officer Derek Chauvin, who was convicted in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States for the murder of George Floyd in May 2020, has been sentenced Imprisonment of 22 years and 6 months.

This case of national concern last year detonated “Black Lives Matter” (Black Lives Matter) anti-racism demonstrations around the world.

The judge told Xiao Wan in court that this judgment was based on “you abused your position of trust and authority, as well as your extremely cruel behavior towards Mr. Freud.”

Last May, 46-year-old African-American man George Floyd died when he was arrested on suspicion of using counterfeit banknotes. Xiao Wan, a police officer at the time, pressed his knees against Freud’s neck for more than 9 minutes. During the process, Freud once said: “I can’t breathe.” He subsequently died.
