She described Floyd as “terrified and frightened”. – It seems like he knew he was done. He was suffering, said the teenager from the witness stand. Guilt In what turned out to be a very emotional day in court, Frazier, who was only 17 when she witnessed the fatal arrest, said she was constantly reminded of the incident. – When I look at George Floyd, I see my father. I see smaller brothers, I see my cousins, my uncles, who are all African-Americans. I look at them and think it could have been one of them, said Frazier. Teenagers further said that she has long struggled with guilt for her role in Floyd’s death. “There have been nights where I lie awake and apologize to George for not doing more and not physically intervening and saving his life,” a tearful Frazier told the jury. – Homicide defendant Derek Chauvin and defense attorney Eric Nelson listened to several emotionally charged testimonies Tuesday.

Amps exchange Frazier was one of several witnesses who told about his experience on Tuesday. Among these was also Genevieve Hansen, who works in the fire service. She too broke down in tears as she recounted her experience of the arrest. – Genevieve Hansen fought back tears in court. Photo: Court TV via AP – Hansen said she repeatedly asked police officers to check Floyd’s pulse, only to be rejected. Police officers should not have believed that she actually worked in the fire department, and Chauvin should have ignored her while he continued to kneel on Floyd’s neck. – As I remember it, he had his hands in his pockets. He seemed so relaxed, Hansen says. There was an occasional tense atmosphere between Hansen and Chauvin’s defender, who pointed out that she expressed “anger” towards the police officers. – I do not know if you have seen anyone killed, but it is outrageous, Hansen replied. – Related posts:Gábor Koncz can barely walk after his serious operation, but he still took the stage7 countries that never unite until nowAre Latvian residents at risk of retirement at 72?AMLO and Sheinbaum journey by Interoceanic Hall practice Motorcyclist died after a traffic accident in Kallo a player goes pro before being loaned to National (off) Leave a Comment Cancel replyCommentName Email Website Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
