Chauvin's wife...files for divorce.
 
Interesting.

I'm not sure about what ex's can/cannot say in regards to legal court testimony...but who knows what we might learn.

Could be that a whole new can of worms...is about to be opened.



Chauvin's Wife Files For Divorce (poke here)

Quote:

The wife of the Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter in the death of George Floyd, has filed for divorce. According to her lawyer, Kellie Chauvin is distraught over Floyd's death.

"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," the Sekula Law Offices, PLLC said in a statement on behalf of Kellie Chauvin and her family.

Probably to protect assets as there will be civil lawsuits.
I've noticed that both of their names are on their home in Windermere, FL.

It would be of no benefit attempting to protect their assets. The prosecutors will most likely follow the money trail which will be quite evident by whatever distribution of marital assets BEFORE the filing of divorce. I don't know about their financial assets but I'm 100% certain the legal fees about to be incurred from his pending legal case will most likely consume much of it before any civil action will be started. After all he was a 19 year civil service veteran with a boatload of complaints. How much savings could they have?

Perhaps the civil suit may come from former victims and from George Floyd's families against the municipality that kept on this police officer with many complaints. Their will be a need to answer the question of WHY keep this person on the police department?

Just my highly educated personal opinion.

I'm sure they have an attorney skilled at this journey of protecting assets.

So true.

So much for "standing by your man"

I was thinking the same thing.

That was my immediate thought as well.

She did not waste any time. What this man did was reprehensible and he deserves what punishment is meted out. However, these protests turned ugly and are also reprehensible. The opportunists decided to destroy and steal private property. Civility has gone out the window.

Is this rotten cop a neighbor of George Zimmerman??

Doesn't matter who's name are on the house, Florida is an equitable distribution state. They both are equal owner's of the home. That can be effected by the length of the marriage.

This could have been the last straw in the relationship, also?

There won’t be any money to follow. Essentially all their assets will go to paying his attorney. Floyd’s family will get a giant payout from the city, but not from Chauvin, who will be broke and will forfeit his pension. I suspect he and his wife had been fighting anyway, and she figured this is a bad time to get a divorce, but better late than never. It’s not like he’s going to be able to pay any alimony or child support.

Meanwhile, what about the domestic terrorists burning our buildings and trashing police cars and looting and endangering? Can they be identified? Can they be punished? I’d like to see everyone involved in these violent “protests” required to pay reparations to the State and reimburse those they have harmed, whatever their ethnicity. I hate what was done to George Floyd, but that does not justify the destruction and terrorism. The laws should not be suspended just because people see their “rage” as a great chance to loot a store with a get out of jail free card. Good thing felons can now vote, right?

Now that was my first thought. In fact, the process of drawing up the divorce may have been in progress before the incident.

Very possible.

She could have just announced the divorce and been done with it, but by going the extra distance in stating that her sympathies are with Mr. Floyd and his family/loved ones...is she hinting that she's not surprised it happened?
