Minneapolis – One of the state’s top prosecutors who helped convict Derek Chauvin in the May 2020 killing of George Floyd has been appointed a judge in Hennepin County, Minnesota’s governor announced Tuesday.
Gov. Tim Waltz said Matt Frank “will be an excellent judge who approaches this position with the understanding that justice is a process, not an outcome.”
Frank is an experienced attorney in the state attorney general’s office, and he helped lead the state’s prosecution of Chauvin and three other former Minneapolis police officers charged in Floyd’s murder.
Chauvin was convicted of manslaughter and manslaughter and sentenced to 22 1/2 years in prison. He later pleaded guilty to federal charges of violating Floyd’s rights and was sentenced to 21 years in prison, to be served concurrently.
Frank also helped Brocker plead guilty to two other former officers on charges of aiding and abetting manslaughter. A fourth former officer decided to let a judge decide his fate.
He is also known for winning a guilty plea in the case of Lois Reese, a Minnesota woman who became famous for killing her husband in 2018, then killing a woman in Florida before her identity was arrested.
Frankie is the second member of Chauvin’s prosecution team to be named a judge. In December, the US Senate confirmed Jerry Blackwell as a federal judge in Minnesota.
