The US Supreme Court has rejected the appeal of Tou Thao, a former Minneapolis police officer who held back a crowd while fellow officers pinned down George Floyd. La Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos rechazó la apelación de Tou Thao, un ex oficial de policía de Minneapolis que contuvo a una multitud mientras sus compañeros inmovilizaban a George Floyd. Thao argued that prosecutors failed to prove his actions were willful and that prosecutorial misconduct deprived him of his right to a fair trial. Thao argumentó que los fiscales no lograron demostrar que sus acciones fueron intencionales y que la mala conducta del fiscal lo privó de su derecho a un juicio justo. Thao testified that he served as a "human traffic cone" while Floyd pleaded for his life. Thao testificó que sirvió como "cono de tráfico humano" mientras Floyd suplicaba por su vida.
