Guilty on all charges. The police officer who knelt on George Floyd's neck for nine minutes, as he gasped for air, begging for his life on a Minneapolis street, has been convicted of murder.

After nine hours of deliberation, the jury found Derek Chauvin responsible for Floyd's death in May last year.

A death that sparked protests against racism and police brutality in many cities in the United States and around the world.
