MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — The judge in the George Floyd case has issued several decisions Wednesday, including a ruling to try all four cases of the ex-Minneapolis police officers together.
Additionally, Hennepin County Judge Peter Cahill ruled that the motion for a change of venue has been preliminarily denied. Cahill ruled the court will rehear the change of venue motions “subsequent to the presentation of additional evidence and briefs on the issue.”

Cahill also ruled the names of jurors will be kept confidential. The jury will also be partially sequestered during trial and fully sequestered during deliberations.
Audio and video coverage will also be allowed.
That means as it stands now — Derek Chauvin, Tou Thao, J Alexander Kueng & Thomas Lane will have one trial in Hennepin County and we will be able to have a camera in the courtroom, meaning you’ll get to see the proceedings #wcco

Floyd, a Black man in handcuffs, died May 25 after Derek Chauvin, a white officer, pressed his knee against Floyd’s neck as Floyd repeatedly said he couldn’t breathe.
Floyd’s death was captured in widely seen bystander video that set off protests, sometimes violent, around the world. Chauvin is charged with second-degree murder and other crimes; J. Alexander Kueng, Thomas Lane and Tou Thao are charged with aiding and abetting.
A trial is set for March.
