Watch the George Floyd video. Criminal Liability can be based on a failure to act (act of omission) when the individual has a legal duty to act. An example is a childcare worker accepts the care of a child, the worker has a legal duty to make a reasonable effort to rescue the child who is in danger. However, amoral duty can beinsufficient to establish criminal liability. Former Minneapolis police officers Tou Thao, Thomas Kiernan Lane, and J. Alexander Kueng responded with Chauvin to the call that ended in Floyd's death. They face charges of aiding and abetting Chauvin on two of his charges and their trial is expected to begin in August.
