Jury selection in the highly anticipated trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin began Tuesday after being delayed amid an effort to gain clarity on the potential of a third-degree murder charge. Chauvin faces charges in the killing of George Floyd last Memorial Day.
Jamiles Lartey, who reports on criminal justice and policing for The Marshall Project, explains the delay.
NPR's Leila Fadel and Adrian Florido have been covering the trial in Minneapolis.
Benjamin Crump, the attorney representing the family of George Floyd, argues that civil suits could deter police violence — even if settlements aren't accompanied by a criminal conviction.
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment that will help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
