    Federal grand jury brings civil rights charges against ex-officers involved in Floyd's killing.
    Minnesota Public Radio (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 84% • 8 min read

    The federal criminal charges are separate from state charges against Chauvin that culminated last month with a jury convicting him of murder and manslaughter. The other three officers are scheduled to go on trial on charges of aiding and abetting murder and manslaughter in August.
    ...
    The first count is against Chauvin alone for his role in holding Floyd on the ground with his knee on his neck for more than nine minutes. The second count alleges that Kueng and Thao “willfully failed to intervene to stop Defendant Chauvin’s use of unreasonable force.” The third count applies to all four former officers, and argues that Floyd had the right “not to be deprived of liberty without due process of law."
    ...
    These types of federal civil rights charges are rare. According to Syracuse University, federal prosecutors brought such charges against on-duty law enforcement officers an average of 41 times per year over the past two decades. That’s a small percentage of the almost 200,000 federal cases prosecuted each year.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - As a speech-language pathologist for 20 years in a large urban public school system I have seen a significant difference in kindergarten children who have had preschool experience and those who have not. Preschool in less financially stable areas offers a win-win. Children are exposed to, and often master, pre-academic concepts and social skills while their caretakers are afforded greater opportunities to hold steady jobs.
