Despite regularly providing cover for police officers who commit murders, police unions appeared eager to condemn former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin after his conviction for George Floyd’s murder.

"As we have said from the beginning, what Derek Chauvin did that day was not policing. It was murder," the Police Benevolent Association (PBA), the NYPD’s rank-and-file police union, said on Wednesday. "The jury has spoken and he will face consequences for his actions. Now it's time for an honest discussion of policing and public safety that begins with the real challenges we face on our streets."
