Courteney Ross answers questions at the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin at the Hennepin County Courthouse in Minneapolis, Minnesota
George Floyd’s girlfriend has cried in court as she told the story of how they first met in 2017 at a Salvation Army shelter where Mr Floyd was a security guard.
Courteney Ross also recounted how they both struggled with opioid addiction on day four of former officer Derek Chauvin’s murder trial.
“Both Floyd and I, our story, it’s a classic story of how many people get addicted to opioids. We both suffered from chronic pain. Mine was in my neck and his was in his back,” Ms Ross said.
