As it happened: George Floyd: Family and supporters react to Chauvin sentence - BBC News
George Floyd's family and supporters reacted to the sentencing of his killer, Derek Chauvin.
The mood outside Hennepin County Court is tense, with many unsatisfied by Judge Cahill’s sentence.

“I feel it was all a big disappointment,” said Elul Adoga, 22. “I’m angry to say the least.

“We talk about justice, we talk about accountability, and this is neither,” Jordan Allen, 23, added. “We’ve waited for an entire year, we’ve fought for an entire year, this is not what we wanted.”

For Angela Harrelson, George Floyd’s maternal aunt, the decision was “bittersweet”.

“We did good to get the verdict,” she said. “Does the punishment fit the crime? No it doesn’t. But this is why it’s so important for us to keep fighting for a better judicial system.”

Justin Blake, uncle of Jacob Blake Jr, said it was important for supporters of the Floyd family to remain positive if they found any solace in the sentence.

He added that Chauvin’s 22.5-year sentence was still historic, despite people’s disappointment: “He’s one of the very few or first that’s going down.”
