Officials said former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin intended to plead guilty to George Floyd’s in-custody murder before a Trump administration official blocked the plea deal last year, the Associated Press reported Thursday.

Former Attorney General William Barr personally blocked the deal that would have allowed Chauvin to plead guilty to third-degree murder and avoid federal charges including a civil rights offense, the AP reported. Barr rejected Chauvin’s plea deal partly due to the investigation into Floyd’s death being in the early stages.
