A candlelight vigil was held in Houston, Texas on Monday in honor of George Floyd. The vigil came after a public viewing, two weeks to the day after Floyd's death was captured by an onlooker's video.

The police officer, who knelt on Floyd's neck and is charged with second-degree murder, Derek Chauvin made his first court appearance in Minneapolis by video link on Monday. A judge ordered his bail raised from $1 million to $1.25 million. Chauvin's co-defendants were previously ordered held on $750,000 to $1 million bond each.
