The 12 jurors found him guilty of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter.

The three-week trial featured hours of video evidence along with testimonies from 45 witnesses including bystanders, police officials, and medical experts.

Chauvin, who is white, pleaded not guilty.

In an arrest captured on video, Chauvin pushed his knee into the neck of Floyd, a 46-year-old handcuffed Black man, for more than nine minutes outside a grocery store where Floyd had been accused of buying cigarettes with a fake $US20 banknote.

The defence countered that Chauvin behaved as any "reasonable police officer" would, and sought to raise doubts about the cause of Floyd's death, saying heart disease or even the exhaust fumes from the nearby police car may have been factors.

Shortly after word went out that the jury had reached a verdict, law enforcement officials began shutting a newly installed gate at Minneapolis Police Headquarters. Additional concrete barriers near the headquarters are also currently being installed. Likewise, windows in nearby businesses have already been boarded up in anticipation of potential rioting or violence on the streets.

Chauvin has been remanded in custody ahead of his sentencing in eight weeks.

Man who allegedly murdered Kelly Wilkinson to face court.

The man who allegedly murdered Gold Coast mother-of-three Kelly Wilkinson will not be present for the first court mention of his case.

The 34-year-old New Beith man was charged with murder and breaching a domestic violence order on Tuesday evening after the burned body of Ms Wilkinson was found in a Gold Coast backyard.

He remains under police guard in Gold Coast University Hospital and his case will be heard on Wednesday morning at Southport Magistrates Court.

Queensland Police say he will not be present in court for the matter.

Earlier on Tuesday, Detective Inspector Chris Ahearn said Ms Wilkinson and the man were known to each other.

"The male person we located and the deceased female person were known to each other, and potentially in a previous relationship," he told reporters.

"So that is the subject of one of the avenues of our ongoing investigation into this matter."

Neighbours reported raised voices coming from the home at around 6.40am.

"It was obviously a very confronting scene, a female person deceased in the rear yard of a residence, apparently suffering from burn-type injuries," Det Insp Ahearn said.

Three children, all under the age of nine and present at the time of the incident, may have witnessed Ms Wilkinson's death.

Consent video pulled following backlash.

The federal government has removed a video of a young woman smearing a milkshake over her partner's face from its consent education website following widespread backlash.

The Department of Education, Skills and Employment on Tuesday confirmed two videos had been removed from The Good Society website, which launched as part of the government's Respect Matters program last week.

"The website contains about 350 resources aimed to support teachers and parents to educate students across all age groups about respectful relationships more broadly," department secretary Dr Michele Bruniges said in a statement.

Victoria's Education Minister James Merlino called for the federal government to pull all content from the site.

"I was pretty disappointed. It was confusing. It was cringeworthy. It just did not hit the mark," he told reporters on Tuesday.

"The feedback I've heard from students is they're confused about what it's even trying to say. It's a big fail, and it's not a resource that I'll be recommending to Victorian schools."

NSW Education Minister Sarah Mitchell described the videos as "pretty woeful".

"It's a missed opportunity about an issue that's really important," she said.

"I don't really see the benefit of a milkshake or taco metaphor. I think we should be a lot more upfront with young people when we talk about these issues."

Biloela Tamil family are "struggling and coping" in immigration detention.

A family of Tamil asylum-seekers removed from the Queensland town of Biloela three years ago are "struggling and coping" in immigration detention.

Priya, Nades and their two young daughters have been held on Christmas Island since August 2019 as the government tries to deport them to Sri Lanka, despite a community campaign to let them stay.

Labor senator Kristina Keneally is among those who have spent years calling for the family to be released.

Senator Keneally has spent the past four days with the family, who have been detained for more than 1,000 days.

Yesterday I met with Priya, Nades, and their two girls Kopika & Tharunicaa. As you can imagine, life in detention is hard. Their situation could be resolved with the stroke of a ministerial pen. It's time for the Tamil family to go #HomeToBilo pic.twitter.com/Kh8Acgbb6h

"They are struggling and coping, as you can imagine, particularly these young girls," she toldABC Radiofrom Christmas Island.

Senator Keneally said Priya was clearly lonely and depressed in detention.

"Nades, the father, is the quieter of the two but I sensed a deep and profound sadness in his face," she said.

"He is stuck in a situation he cannot resolve. He can't work, he can't look after his family, and he can't get a way out."

Senator Keneally said Nades genuinely feared being killed if he was deported to Sri Lanka.

"He just wants to care for his wife and children, and he doesn't want to make his daughters orphans."

Their two Australian-born girls, Kopika and Tharunicaa, are happy when they are allowed to attend school or visit a recreation centre once a week.

"But back in detention they are, Priya says, they are dead, they have no joy," Senator Keneally said.

Only 100 residential disability centres have received the COVID-19 vaccine.

Elderly Australians in nursing homes are being prioritised over disability residents, senior health officials have told a federal parliamentary committee.

"We have deliberately focused on aged care residents," health department associate secretary Caroline Edwards said on Tuesday.

Out of about 6,000 disability residential facilities in total, just 100 had received the vaccine, Ms Edwards said.

A total of 1,640 doses have been delivered out of 25,000 people in disability residential care.
