GEORGE FLOYD'S LEGACY: REFORMING, RELATING, AND RETHINKING THROUGH CHAUVIN'S CONVICTION AND APPEAL UNDER A FELONY-MURDER DOCTRINE LONG-WEAPONIZED AGAINST PEOPLE OF COLOR.
- Authors
Egan, Greg
- Abstract
The article analyzes sentencings, plea negotiations, convictions, and charging under Minnesota's felony-murder doctrine across race, buttressing statistics with examples and exposing racial inequities in the way the felony-murder doctrine is deployed. It mentions four prosecuted Minnesota police killings in recent memory, reconciling these cases with larger trends and accounting for race. It also mentions public policy and recognizes their symbolic and social power.
