Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar has come into the spotlight surrounding the George Floyd death, after it was discovered she once declined to prosecute the officer who was recorded kneeling on Floyd’s neck and that between 1999 and 2007, Klobuchar declined to press charges against more than a dozen officers accused of killing civilians.

According to The Guardian, Klobuchar served as the Hennepin County Attorney in 2006 when police officer Derek Chauvin was among a group of six officers who opened fire on a stabbing suspect after a chase that ended when the suspect pointed a sawed-off shotgun at them.

However, a spokeswoman for the Hennepin County prosecutor’s office release a statement Thursday saying Klobuchar left the office before the case came up.

“Senator Klobuchar’s last day in the office here was December 31, 2006, and she had no involvement in the prosecution of this case at all,” said Lacey Severins, a spokeswoman for the Hennepin County prosecutor’s office, which encompasses Minneapolis.

Klobuchar wrote on Twitter Thursday that the officers involved in Floyd’s death should be charged.
