明尼蘇達州法官彼得-卡希爾週四準許了檢察官的請求，恢復對德里克-喬文的三級謀殺指控，他是前明尼阿波利斯警察，已經在喬治-弗洛伊德死亡的過失殺人指控中面臨二級謀殺的審判，我必須遵循上訴法院制定的規則。

Judge Cahill's decision comes after the Minnesota Court of Appeals ruled last Friday that he must reconsider a third degree murder charge against Chauvin, whose trial got underway with jury selection this week in Minneapolis.

Cahill法官的決定是在明尼蘇達州上訴法院上週五裁定他必須重新考慮對Chauvin的三級謀殺指控之後做出的，他的審判本週在明尼阿波利斯進行了陪審團選擇。

The reinstatement of a third degree murder charge was a victory for state prosecutors, who sought the lesser charge in part to afford them an extra path to a conviction should the jury find the evidence does not support the most serious charge.

恢復三級謀殺罪的指控是州檢察官的勝利，他們尋求較輕的指控，部分是為了在陪審團發現證據不支持最嚴重的指控時，為他們提供額外的定罪途徑。

三級謀殺罪可判處最高25年監禁。

Chauvin's charges stemmed from his actions during the arrest of George Floyd on May 25th of last year.

Chauvin的指控源於他在去年5月25日逮捕George Floyd時的行為。
