Bay Area attorney says second-degree murder charge in Floyd case appears to be strong one

Attorneys in the Bay Area are reacting to the now second-degree murder charge against former officer Derek Chauvin for the death of George Floyd.

Jim Hammer is a former prosecutor in the Bay Area. He was also a police commissioner and he says that those rallying for justice should feel confident about a second-degree murder charge. "For anyone who thinks that's not enough, it carries 40 years in prison," says Chauvin who went on to say, "based on what we see, and we see a hell of a lot, it's not a secret what happened. It just screams out to me at a murder case. Not a first-degree murder. It's not premeditated. From what I can see, it's not one of these specified felonies. It's a solid second-degree murder case just as if someone said I'm gonna kill him." Fortyyears in jail for Chauvin could basically be a life sentence because of his age. Hammer says going for a first-degree charge could ruin the case if you don't have enough to convict. He also says it is often very challenging to convict police officers.
