Chauvin to be sentenced in 8 weeks, faces up to 40 years
Chauvin sentencing hearing will be in eight weeks.
The maximum sentence for second-degree murder is 40 years in prison, but Minnesota sentencing guidelines suggest he's more likely to receive up to 15 years.
However, the state is permitted to ask for the full 40 years.
"I expect the prosecution to ask for more time" than the 15 years, ABC News Legal Analyst Dan Abrams said.
