President Joe Biden phoned family members of George Floyd after a jury found former police officer Derek Chauvin guilty of all three charges in Floyd’s death.

“We’re all so relieved, not just one verdict but all three. Guilty on all three counts. It’s really important,” Biden said during the call posted online by Floyd’s family attorney Ben Crump.
