Judge drops third-degree murder charge against former officer Derek Chauvin in George Floyd's death, but second-degree murder charge remains

I wondered what illiterate Luk was crowing about earlier today:

The officer that murdered George Floyd just got convicted. Third degree murder with a second degree still pending.

Apparently, Luk reads "charge dropped" as "convicted." To be fair, it's hard to fit a lot of legal detail into the memes he "reads" as his "news" sources.

His comment will remain, this thread will be moved.

I think Officer Cauvin will be acquitted of the most serious charges. Mr. Floyd had enough drugs in his system ti die from an overdose. His body was an incredible trainwreck, especially his pulmonary system. It's a shame, but it wasn't murder.
