“We never worried about not having a place to live or a job, or about being evicted. There were no worries or fears about our livelihoods and there was so much in the way of culture and recreation that was available most of the time at little or no cost.”

She said that “attempts were always made not only that you had a job but that it was the best job you could do and whenever possible a job you really liked.”

Zastrow explained that she disliked the technical aspects of her schooling, despite the fact that they were providing her with skills that were quite useable. “I love animals,” she said, “and really wanted to have a career working with them.” She described how “there were needs for everything in the GDR, for people who could do all kinds of things and they worked to get me a job that I loved, a job on a large agricultural dairy collective where I had such good times working with more than 300 cows!”

Chauvin appealed his second-degree murder conviction and requested a public defender to represent him on appeal. The Minnesota Supreme Court denied Chauvin's request for a public defender, ruling that his financial state rendered him ineligible. Chauvin later hired attorney William Mohrman to represent him.[99] In April 2022, Chauvin appealed to the Minnesota Court of Appeals, asking the court to reverse his conviction and order a new trial, in a new venue, claiming that the jury of the case in the state had been "intimidated by excessive pre-trial publicity".[100] Chauvin's lawyer further stated that the settlement reached between the city of Minneapolis and the Floyd family for $27 million during jury selection amounted to prejudice.[101] In April 2023, a three-judge panel of the Court of Appeals issued a 50-page decision affirming the conviction.[102] Chauvin asked the Minnesota Supreme Court to review the case, but was denied in July 2023.[103]

Chauvin's lawyer asked the Supreme Court of the United States to review the case.[104] The appeal centered on the claim by Chauvin that he did not receive a fair trial due to pre-trial publicity and that potential civil unrest if he was acquitted may have influenced the jury.[105] In an interview from prison for a documentary released on November 16, 2023 by the right-wing[106] media organization Alpha News, Chauvin said, "At the end of the day, the whole trial including sentencing was a sham."[107] The Supreme Court declined to hear Chauvin's case on November 20, 2023,[108] which left in place the state court rulings that affirmed his conviction and for his sentence of 22+1⁄2 years in prison.[17]
