Derek Chauvin's defense in his trial for killing George Floyd has argued that he was simply following police protocol when he restrained Floyd, who repeatedly said "I can't breathe" as he lay handcuffed on the ground, by pressing a knee to Floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes.
On Monday, the Minneapolis police chief disavowed that use of force.
"Once Mr. Floyd had stopped resisting, and certainly once he was in distress and trying to verbalize that, that should have stopped," Chief Medaria Arradondo testified in the ongoing trial for his former officer.
