Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer who pressed his knee into George Floyd’s neck, has had his charge of third-degree murder upped to a more serious charge of second-degree murder. The other three former officers who were at the scene are charged with aiding and abetting second-degree murder. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who announced the charges, tells Anderson Cooper he’s “committed to holding the defendants accountable at the highest ethical charge.” Plus, NBA Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar joins AC360 to react to the protests going on throughout the country and says it’s not enough to say “that was terrible and my thoughts and prayers are with you.” Airdate: June 3, 2020 To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
