A Massachusetts police department issued an apology after its social media account shared a post that speculated what would have happened had George Floyd "immediately stood and calmly placed his hands behind his back."

After ex-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter in the death of Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, an officer for the Fall River Police Department accidentally shared a post from the department’s account instead of his or her own.
