If he must serve 15 years before becoming parole eligible, even considering that he already served 199 days that are accredited, wouldn't that date put him in the early-mid 2030's at least? How is the date in 2028 obtained? Not A Superhero ( talk) 23:54, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
Yeah, I checked and several news articles have stated 2035 or 2036 are the earliest he can get out, nothing about 2028. 2607:FEA8:88A0:420D:AD3C:786E:D264:2D93 ( talk) 01:45, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
There is a citation which appears 5 times under "Sentencing" sub section, but only the "ref name" is given. It's missing its link and other information.
<ref name="Chauvin Sentence Begins" />
Because there's no other info, the citation currently shows as:
Cite error: The named reference Chauvin Sentence Begins was invoked but never defined (see the help page).
Any help tracking down the original info? I could go through the history of edits, but that could take forever to find the relevant edit that had it removed, if it was placed in the article at all. It looks like it may have had an earlier mention, but since removed (in error perhaps?). -- Tytrox ( talk) 17:05, 26 June 2021 (UTC)
I've been trying to figure it out by using my sandbox to try and fix, and this is what I have so far...
<ref name="Chauvin Sentence Begins" />

Any idea as to why it's still showing as an error?

"The thing is, he was honest about his underlying belief, which is that he felt very favorably about Black Lives Matter," Osler said. "The attorneys knew that. And they also knew that that attitude based off lived experience is not a reason to bar jury service." "We can't write off Black jurors because they have lived their lives as Black people," Osler said

I do not understand the convictions. Prosecutors frequently file multiple charges so juries have the option... if you find him not guilty of x, maybe you can find him guilty of the lesser charge of y. That way, it doesn't wind up with the defendant going scot free on a single technicality...the jury will still have the option to convict on the lesser charge. The lesser count of the three, 2nd degree manslaughter, (Minnesota Statute) by definition includes the following text:
"...and murder in the first, second, or third degree is not committed thereby."
So by convicting him of manslaughter, they are saying its NOT murder, yet they also convicted him on 2 separate counts of murder. I am just posting this for discussion only. The page accurately lists the convictions. I just don't know another medium to question the legal justification for convicting him on all three charges. I'm sure the prosecutor was only shooting for 1 and got all 3. 49.144.64.141 ( talk) 11:18, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
