George Floyd

The former Kanye West, now known simply as 'Ye,' is being sued by the family of George Floyd, after Ye made comments about the man who was murdered by Minneapolis police.

“Let’s not be silent,” she said. “Let’s not close our eyes and close our mouths. Let’s keep agitating for change. Maybe what we don’t need is a police department, but a department of public safety.”

A ‘silent vigil for justice’ will take place on Sunday, April 25 from 7pm-9pm in downtown Casper.

A verdict has been reached in the trial of former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin.

The $50,000 expenditure included overtime for law enforcement officers who came from Cheyenne.

Hundreds of people gathered in Casper for demonstrations on June 3 and 5 to protest the police death of Minneapolis resident George Floyd.

Several Change.org petitions regarding the violent white supremacist group have seen widespread support in the past week or so.

The video of the nearly nine last minutes of Floyd's life went viral and inspired protests worldwide.

The starting point for Casper's Unity Vigil for George Floyd has been moved from David Street Station to the paved parking lot at the intersection of David Street and Midwest Street.

While at times tense and confrontational, the protesters peacefully moved along down Second Street for the most part.

The silence turned to talk, sometimes angry talk, after the demonstrators arrived at the Hall of Justice .

He was arrested and charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter late last week.
