The judge in Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin’s claimed that “defund the police” “idiots” made it difficult to carry out the trial — but insists he gave the man convicted of killing George Floyd a fair shake. In his first interview since the high-profile trial, retired Judge Peter Cahill, 66, gave insight into his attempts to manage the media circus and specifically called out the Minneapolis city council for making the situation worse through toxic politics, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported. “It did not help that people were saying ‘defund the police’ — all these idiots on the Minneapolis City Council,” Cahill told the outlet.
