A judge has set bail for three former Minneapolis police officers charged with aiding and abetting the murder of George Floyd on Thursday.
MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - Court documents show the conditions three Minneapolis police arrested this week on charges in the death of George Floyd need to meet to make bail.
According to newly filed papers, Tou Thao, Thomas Lane, and J. Alexander Kueng can be released from jail on the conditions they post $750,000 bail, stay out of trouble, make their court appearances, do not possess firearms, and obey by terms of a supervised release. The officers also won't be allowed to work in security or contact the victim's family.
The officers are still listed in custody and need to post the bail to get out.
