There won't be any tearful, supportive spouse scenes in the future for Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer who killed George Floyd last Monday. Chauvin's wife Kellie has filed for divorce, according to her attorney:
“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.Coupled with Chauvin's history of misconduct in uniform over the years, his soon-to-be former wife obviously has seen Chauvin up close and personal over their 10-year marriage. Her strong reaction to Floyd's murder by her husband, and her quick action to divorce him, speaks volumes about what she's witnessed with him.
