Tou Thao

Tou Thao was a veteran officer in the Minneapolis Police Department for close to ten years, when he a viral video seemed to show him playing a supporting role in the controversial killing of George Floyd.

Thao, his partner, Derek Chauvin, and two officers with less than a week of active duty, were fired shortly after the video went viral.

Reporters have found that the Minneapolis Police Department had policies, on the books, that should have called for the junior officers to have intervened, and prevented Chauvin, the senior officer, from killing Floyd.
