Putting a knee on George Floyd’s neck was not part of department training: officer
Updated 8:20 PM;
MINNEAPOLIS Two Minneapolis police officers with experience in crisis intervention and use of force spoke about proper procedures Tuesday in the seventh day of testimony in Derek Chauvin’s murder trial, with one of them saying the now-fired officer’s knee on George Floyd’s neck was not part of department training.
Tuesday’s proceedings wrapped up with a Los Angeles police sergeant and use of force expert retained by the prosecution saying that he saw on officer body camera video that Floyd stopped resisting arrest on May 25 that should have led Chauvin and the other officers to ease up on their restraint.
