Sentencing is Thursday for a former Minneapolis police officer convicted of violating George Floyd's civil rights.
Thomas Lane was one of three other officers at the scene when then-officer Derek Chauvin pinned Floyd's neck to the pavement with his knee for more than nine minutes.
Lane held Floyd's legs while Officer J. Alexander Kueng pinned his back and Officer Tou Thao held back onlookers.
Prosecutors are seeking from 5 1/4 to 6 1/2 years in prison when Lane is sentenced this Thursday.
Sentencing hasn't been set yet for Kueng and Thao, who are objecting to how their sentencing guidelines have been calculated in a presentence review.
