    Murderer. The proper way to refer to him, mainstream news, is “the murderer Derek Chauvin”. He was convicted of murdering George Floyd.

      I don’t know, I like reminding everyone that he was a police officer when this sort of thing comes up.

        How about " Convicted Murderer and disgraced police officer Derek Chauvin", that should keep most of us happy.

          Disgraced police officer is redundant.

      Then should we call his victim “the drug dealer/abuser George Floyd”.

        Why would we do that? Especially since neither of those have been proven in a court of law.
