Hennepin County District Judge Peter Cahill handed down the sentence Friday in a Minneapolis courtroom, hours after denying the defense\u2019s request for a new trial.<\/p>\n<p>Statements were read to the court by Floyd\u2019s family members ahead of the sentencing and Chauvin offered his condolences to the family. The 45-year-old was found guilty of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter.<\/p>\n<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.plyr.io\/3.6.4\/plyr.css\" \/>\n<p>Prosecutors called for a sentence of 30 years while Chauvin\u2019s defense team sought a shorter sentence or probation. The defense argued that the former police officer doesn\u2019t have a criminal history.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/n-y-court-revokes-giulianis-law-license-for-exposing-election-fraud\/\">N.Y.
