In footage posted by American Bridge, Virginia gubernatorial candidate Amanda Chase attacked the verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial that saw the former Minneapolis police officer convicted of murder and manslaughter for the death of George Floyd.
"Friends, today's verdict makes me sick," said Chase. "I am so concerned about our law enforcement quitting, and you should be too."
But police broadly agreed with the verdict. Chauvin's former chief and fellow officers testified against him, and even the president of the nation's largest police union stated the conviction was justified.
