Derek Chauvin's charge has been raised to second-degree murder, according to a tweet from Sen. Amy Klobuchar.

The independent autopsy said Floyd died of "asphyxiation from sustained pressure" when his neck and back were compressed by Minneapolis officers during the arrest. This means pressure cut off blood flow to his brain.
