The 7-year-old daughter of George Floyd delivered a heartbreaking message at the sentencing of her father’s killer on Friday, telling the judge through a video message what she wished she could still be doing with her father. “I ask how did my daddy get hurt.”"I ask about him all the time, and that's kinda it," George Floyd’s daughter told a person asking about her dad in a recorded video statement played during the sentencing procedure for Derek Chauvin. Chauvin was convicted in April of second- and third-degree murder as well as second-degree manslaughter in the 46-year-old Black man’s death. Shortly after Floyd’s death, as protesters nationwide denounced the killing as the latest example of police brutality against Black Americans, Gianna appeared in another viral video commenting on her father’s legacy. “Daddy changed the world,” she said from atop the shoulders of NBA veteran Stephen Jackson, a longtime friend of the late Floyd.
