Throughout the  murder trial, prosecutors showed jurors the video seen countless times  around the world of the white police officer killing a Black male. And  when it was over, the jurors found the officer guilty of murder.


That  was in 2018. Now, as former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin  waits to be sentenced for killing George Floyd, it’s worth remembering  what happened in Chicago after a jury convicted a white police officer  in the shooting death of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald: The judge didn't  follow prosecutors’ recommended 18-20 years behind bars. Former officer  Jason Van Dyke got a more lenient sentence — and might be released from  prison in about three years.
