Jury Selection Underway In Federal Trial Over George Floyd's Killing

The transcript discusses the impact of Derek Chauvin's guilty plea on the trial of three other former officers involved in George Floyd's murder. Chauvin's plea is beneficial for the defense as it removes him from the federal case, allowing the other officers to argue their defense without his presence. The jury selection process is underway, with a focus on quickly seating jurors while addressing potential biases. The federal trial is taking place before the state trial to ensure fairness, as decided by Judge Peter Cahill, who aims to separate the cases to avoid bias from Chauvin's previous guilty verdict.
