Former police officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of the murder of George Floyd in a verdict read by the judge as the world watched on around 10pm Irish time on Tuesday night.

Chauvin faces up to 75 years in prison for all three counts, effectively life.

However, fears grow that violence and rioting could still happen even with the guilty verdict.

It appears as though there could be horrendous violence once again Stateside regardless of guilty verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial.

School children have once again left school and are being home-schooled for safety reasons, businesses are shut and boarded up and people are told to stay away from the inner city where the courtroom is in progress.

As the trial of former Minneapolis police offer Derek Chauvin, accused of murdering George Floyd, ended, a prominent Black Lives Matter activist Maya Echols had threatened violence if Chauvin is not convicted.

“If George Floyd’s murderer is not sentenced, just know that all hell is gonna break loose. Don’t be surprised when buildings are on fire. Just saying,” Echols threatened in a since-deleted video.

Following the death of the home invading drug addict last year, the United States witnessed the most destructive riots in its history which also left numerous people dead.

In Democrat run cities across the United States BLM thugs backed by the terrorist group Antifa were permitted to run riot, burning, looting and some cases murdering innocent people with so-called “autonomous zones” even being established in cities like Seattle.

It is feared that regardless of verdict of the trial, the same hate groups that launched the riots last year will once again take to the streets to spread destruction and mayhem.
