Officer In George Floyd Case Out On Bail

June 11, 2020 4:17 am

One of four police officers charged in the death of George Floyd has posted bail and is out of jail. Online records show that 37-year-old Thomas Lane posted bail of $750,000 and was released from Hennepin County Jail, with conditions, shortly after 4 p.m. Records show the other three officers remain in custody. Lane is charged with aiding and abetting both second-degree murder and manslaughter for his role in the arrest of Floyd, a handcuffed black man who died on Memorial Day in Minneapolis while in police custody. Lane’s attorney did not immediately return a message seeking comment.
