MSNBC junkies who’ve followed the trial of former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin know civil rights attorney David Henderson. Henderson is a partner in Ellwanger Law Equal Rights Attorneys, whose office is in the Oak Cliff Bank Tower. He’s appeared as an expert throughout the court case of the officer accused of killing George Floyd on May 25, 2020. The former prosecutor appeared on MSNBC in June 2020, reacting to suspects being indicted in the death of Ahmaud Arbery, who was murdered while jogging in rural Georgia. Since then, he’s become a regular commenter for the network on legal topics around senseless violence against Black people in America.
