跪殺弗洛伊德白人警察罪名成立

Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of two counts of murder and one count of manslaughter in the death of George Floyd, the judge presiding over the high-profile trial announced Tuesday, reading the jury's verdict.
美國明尼蘇達州前白人警察德雷克•肖萬被控殺害非洲裔男子喬治•弗洛伊德一案4月20日宣判，肖萬被控的兩項謀殺和一項過失殺人罪名全部成立。這場審判備受關(guān)注，法官當庭宣讀了陪審團的裁決。

Judge Peter Cahill revoked Chauvin's bail after the conviction and said the defendant will be sentenced "eight weeks from now."

Since Chauvin has no previous criminal record, he would avoid the maximum sentence for each of the three charges, which is 40 years for second-degree murder, 25 years for third-degree murder, and 10 years for second-degree manslaughter.
二級謀殺罪面臨最高40年監(jiān)禁，三級謀殺罪面臨最高25年監(jiān)禁，二級過失殺人罪面臨最高10年監(jiān)禁。由于肖萬此前無犯罪記錄，因此預(yù)計刑期低于最高刑期。

Floyd, aged 46, died on May 25, 2020 after Chauvin, a white police officer, held him down with a knee on his neck for almost nine minutes.
46歲的弗洛伊德于2020年5月25日去世。去世前，白人警察肖萬用膝蓋壓住他的脖子近9分鐘。

Video footage of Floyd's brutal killing triggered nationwide reckoning over race, and the call for racial justice resonated all around the world.
