Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who had avoided discussing his hoped-for outcome, said after the verdict that he was pleased with it.
“Today’s verdict is an important step forward for justice in Minnesota. The trial is over, but our work has only begun,” Walz said in a statement, adding: “No verdict can bring George back, and my heart is with his family as they continue to grieve his loss. Minnesota mourns with you, and we promise the pursuit of justice for George does not end today.”
The Minneapolis police union said they “want to reach out to the community and still express our deep remorse for their pain, as we feel it every day as well.”
“We need the political pandering to stop and the race baiting of elected officials to stop,” a statement from the Police Officers Federation of Minneapolis continued. “… In addition, we need to stop the divisive comments and we all need to do better to create a Minneapolis we all love.”
