The jury in the Derek Chauvin murder trial returned to the courthouse at 9 a.m. ET on Tuesday morning to resume their deliberations.

After hearing closing arguments from both prosecutors and Chauvin's defense attorney on Monday, the jury deliberated for four hours without reaching a verdict.

The jury in the trial of Derek Chauvin adjourned without reaching a verdict on Monday night after deliberating for four hours.

The jurors began to deliberate for the first time at 4 p.m. CT on Monday, following closing arguments from the prosecution and the defense. They adjourned at 8 p.m. CT, according to an update from the Minnesota Judicial Branch.

The jurors will remain sequestered in a hotel each night until they arrive at a verdict or determine that they cannot all agree on a verdict.

Hundreds of high school students in Roseville, Minnesota joined a student walkout as deliberations continue in the Chauvin trial.

The Roseville Area High School students gathered outside the school just before 1 p.m. local time and marched to the Roseville Police Department, about a mile away. They wore black in solidarity for Floyd and the Black community.

Defense attorney Eric Nelson argued for a mistrial over comments Rep. Maxine Waters made regarding the trial over the weekend.

“We’ve got to stay on the street, and we’ve got to get more active, we’ve got to get more confrontational,” Waters said at a demonstration in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, on Saturday night when asked what protesters should do if Derek Chauvin is found not guilty.

Nelson brought up the comments after the jury was sent to deliberations Monday, saying he interpreted them “to be threats against the sanctity of the jury process” by “demanding that if there’s not a guilty verdict that there would be further problems.”

Judge Cahill denied the motion for a mistrial, saying jurors had been instructed not to watch the news and therefore couldn’t be prejudiced by the comments, but noted that “Congresswoman Waters may have given you something on appeal that may result in this whole trial being overturned.”

“I wish elected officials would stop talking about this case, especially in a manner that is disrespectful to the rule of law, or to the judicial branch in our function,” he later added. “I think if they want to give their opinions, they should do so in a respectful, and in a manner that is consistent with their oath to the Constitution.”
