Quote:Lawyers for George Floyd’s convicted killer, ex-cop Derek Chauvin, filed a motion Tuesday requesting a new trial for a raft of reasons — including jury misconduct.
The motion filed by attorney Eric Nelson in a Minneapolis court cited “the interests of justice, abuse of discretion that deprived [Chauvin] of a fair trial; prosecutorial and jury misconduct,” legal errors and a verdict “contrary to law.”
