Derek Chauvin: Wife of Killer Cop Files For Divorce

Kellie Chauvin, the wife of police officer Derek Chauvin has filed for divorce following the realization that her husband is responsible for Mr. Floyd’s death.

 

A lawyer issued the statement from the wife of the now arrested police officer.

 

“This evening, I spoke with Kellie Chauvin and her family. She is devastated by Mr. Floyd’s death and her utmost sympathy lies with his family, with his loved ones and with everyone who is grieving this tragedy. She has filed for dissolution of her marriage to Derek Chauvin,” reads the statement released by Sekula Law Offices.

 

“While Ms. Chauvin has no children from her current marriage, she respectfully requests that her children, her elder parents, and her extended family be given safety and privacy during this difficult time,” the statement continued.

 

Meanwhile, on Friday, John Harrington, commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, had announced that Chauvin, 44, of Oakdale, was arrested by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, who said that Chauvin was arrested in Minneapolis.

 

“We have now been able to put together the evidence that we need. Even as late as yesterday afternoon, we did not have all that we needed.

 

“This is by far the fastest that we’ve ever charged a police officer,” Freeman said.
