The fired Minneapolis cop whose caught-on-tape killing of George Floyd ignited nationwide protests could receive more than $1 million in taxpayer-funded pension benefits even if he’s convicted of murdering the unarmed black man. Derek Chauvin, 44, would remain eligible to file for those benefits as soon as he turns 50, according to a CNN analysis based on his tenure, contract details, payroll figures and other documents from the Minneapolis Police Department.
