Fremont Family: Yesterday felt historic. When the news came that the jury in the Derek Chauvin trial had reached a verdict, I held my breath. It seemed to me that time stood still. That life hung in the balance. Maybe I am being a bit dramatic? I don't think so. When the judge read the jury's findings, Chauvin found guilty on all three counts, I was overcome with emotion. I found myself sobbing with deep relief. I know I was not the only one.
