@andrew chamberswhat about the 300 unarmed black men killed in the U.S By racist police? Trump is racist trust me he wouldn't called the white supremacist great.
Auglitical as there are more white people than black people, 50 black is more than 60 white percentage wise. and not as many white people as as black people are killed without a reason.
Derek Chauvin had a bad record and was still allowed to be on the force, this starts at the top, these chiefs should be held accountable especially being a black man himself.
Yes I definitely agree being black myself have had lots of unlawful arrest by the police here they racially profile black people in uk all the time and no one does any thing to bring them to justice?
@@markbleasdale2934 I know. I never complain about individual police officers, as they are only doing what the others are doing. I know the UK. There are plenty of slimeballs there also, at the top. In New Zealand where I am from, police are trying to reform. If a policeman does something bad there, the Commissioner is fired.
O yes trump has an answer to dat.cos going back to trump's election he was by his side all through.so it was a backstage way to get in the force. They are all a bag of shit.
We can do better with this human issue. Let's choose to being divided by fear and guilt. It is a self-destructive cycle that the individual can change. Solutions that break through the race-baiting drama of the past are closer than we think. The world is changing... ua-cam.com/video/pgd5TrOdKb8/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/WzMiu-FvFsk/v-deo.html
Anyone here after the testimony of Chief Arradondo in the trial? This man really seems like an exemplary and honorable human being. Impressed every time I see him speak.
I not feeling the chief, the police officer had 18 complaints against him he should had been fired long ago. Chief fell at his job looking out for the public
S J the world is how it always was in a sense. There are always good people doing the right thing, but they are never mentioned. It’s the bad apples out of the bunch that are brought to attention. This is what brings the feeling”losing faith in humanity” or “what can heal this world”
“we have to look at the complaints” he had 18 and had killed 3 other people and now you want to look at them? did the legitimate complaints just sit at the bottom of a drawer??
Exactly. Basically, he's saying that we need a few endless investigations that will lead to nothing! Justice is now in the hands of the mob because there is no justice in our justice system.
@The Wraith just cause u didn't hear it on the news doesn't mean it didn't happen duck. This aint the first i can't breathe and this been having even before you even was layback and making excuses for u pigs
I can't imagine, and I lost my oldest son to drugs. It was the biggest sucker punch, but I can't imagine seeing on live tv another man pressing on my sons neck, as he pleads for his life, and seeing that look in the cop's eyes as he presses down harder and after 8 minutes without mercy he murders my son!! That is unforgivable!!! May God bless and be with his mother and family right now! I feel their pain, but not to the same extent, and this is what white America has to understand!!! This is why they are so angry beyond words, because they have been abused and murdered for far too long!! We have to back them up. Find a way to work together so that we can save our nation, and make it an America that we can be proud of and is in step with uniting the people of the world! Bless you! 😉❤
Liberalism is a mental illness. We all see the destruction is caused. Anarchy, talk of revolution, socialism communism. The Marxist Jewish media is leading the charge is promoting and encouraging racial hatred against whites
If this was the other way around imagine how many years in jail floyd would get. So why should it be any different for derek chauvin and those who stood by and let this happen. RIP george floyd...
Because he was a criminal actively resisting arrest and it was an accident? It was absolute stupidity but was manslaughter at best. Let's see what comes out in court
This year has been so painful, I don’t wanna be hear anymore, it’s a relief seeing so many coming together but i still feel hopeless, I hope this brings change , great change as George Floyd’s name goes down in history as a symbol of peace, change, and unity
Khalil Yardon my dear you need to rewatch the video somethings are out of his control. He is only the police chief not the state attorney. He did fire all the cops however the person that killed george has been arrested. The state is still investigating this matter. Yes I feel the sameway they should all be in jail for not speaking up. However you need understand as well this is a pinacle step in history, where too many white cops have gone unpunished for the crimes they commited. This is pretty much a first where a cop has been prosecuted. It is upsetting but we will have to wait and see what punishment the other cops get. There are layers to this and as the chief said himself, this is not his call to make he is only the police chief and there are people above him. A decision like that can effect how all police officers opperate and what can happen to in the future. Before you guys come crucify me I know very little about politics this is just from observation the point I have to make.
Adrian MacGrath what would you do to stop this? It’s easy to criticize behind your net device. What would you do to make things better? Tell us please.
First off how about actually checking into all 18 of those complaints and 2 were actually worth him getting fired but cops stick togther no matter what. If there was not a absolute video i promise u he would defend his officers to the end.
@@johannessimatupang1749 I am living in Germany?? So What for a authoritarian system are u talking about, can u explain it for me pls? U speak about honour, so the Chief had honour to let a psychopath who abused humans to such a degree a honorable men? He is the Chief! He didnt show himself because of honour or respect. Do u think he would show himself or even raise his hand if that wouldnt be recorded? So dont speak about honour....

Tears flowed down my cheeks when I saw the Police Chief take his hat down, and when news reporter Sarah got emotional 😥 Thank you Police Chief and Sarah. ❤💐
That was bs ! Its a act cause the country wondering why in the fuck he not in jail and he still weaseled out of that question saying he fired them if anyone that wasn't a cop would be in jail immediately why aren't they ??? He is chief of police he should be able to put charges on him esp with his response right why I call bs on that act read my comment I posted about abuse of power by police of any means should be life in prison and needs to be on the ballots no more control were free and we should be treated as so
it breaks my heart to see how much broken his family is over this atrocity, I don't know what I would do if I saw my loved one being choked out live, yelling he can't breathe while 4 grown (supposedly) men just watched him die. "killing one human is like killing all of humanity". God bless you floyd family
my heart goes out to them that they have to watch it over and over and over. For eternity. On one hand, if there was no footage, they may have never had anything done to them, but on the other hand, his family may never get that out of their minds. Tragic.

@ You've researched that point? Clear on all the information? Don't think I'm a white apologist, because I'm not - the situation exists because of your history and the failure of your system to moderate the attitudes held by your citizens.
Yes, and they need to learn that “additional training” doesn’t cure a psychopath, ever. When you create a job that offers complete power and zero consequence, you can expect every psychopath in the country to apply. Mental health screening or the whole institution is pointless.
@@DarjeelingEnjoyer yeah true but is not a enough. Because we have some corrupt officers who some how was able to become police officers and be criminals while on the job.
J J obviously have deep problems with himself. I've seen so many heartless, thoughtless and hurtful comments to news. It seems many is totally dead in their soul, and will be the ones that end up lost in all eternity I'm afraid.
I've known the Chief for many years as well. I second what Joey says. Furthermore, don't take our word for it. Do a little research yourself. His pathway to leadership is public info. He's been a fighter for the minority and justice his entire career.
@@PyxisGuru but how come he has such Demons working under him,it's so sad we are here in Africa feeling so sad and depressed over the killing.We see and deal with Boko Haram here but wonder this is a death that could have been avoided that's what is most painful.We are praying for justice to prevail.

Also, Chauvin: Fifteen complaints in nineteen years - still has a job. Anyone out there think they'd retain their job (I don't care what line of work you're in) after having fifteen complaints leveled against you? This is outrageous.
Well your Boss is your Buddy and you drink with them and go to KKK rallies with him on the days off. Were any of those complaints from Other Officers is what's the REAL PROBLEM🤷♂️. If not then that's the Problem there folks.
This was an extraordinary interview and interaction. If all people showed as much empathy, respect and understanding to another as we have seen in this interview this world would be a better place.
@@queue555 : what are you talking about?? Yes, you can find that in black communities. Absolutely--- Not everybody (ofcourse)... There are black folks with apathy & hatred inside of them.

Whst dud Mr j Floyd did ? What was his crime? He has no gun He was not resisting arrest Why did the other police not acted? Could it be a game? Why is it that us only the masses are THE one to suffer? And those we elected as leaders can not defend us then why do we have leaders? Why do we gave police men? I can understand if it was a gun man who walked to him and shot him or a civilian attack and kill him or even if it was a police let it be in self defence BUT just brutality to a man who has not been charge charged and sentence for dead penalty .
This is an incredible interview! The police chief showed respect, thought, and a demand for justice. In over 70 years, I have not seen anything like it. I am very emotive and sad. Congratulations to the INTERVIEWER.
The most incredible interview so far on this tragedy. It felt real, honest and with raw emotion. Thank you for this and for your display of sensitivity, compassion, and humanity.
Why weren't the officers charged at the scene and taken to jail and then fired and denied bail? Chief should resign. The city council needs to go ahead and write a huge check to the Floyd family because it's coming!!
Because he was a police officer, he is above the law (he thought), thank god it was on video. I hope this is the start of change. Unfortunately too late for Mr Floyd and all the other poor people before. Rest in peace with you mum.
You might be taking it a mile too far there. Why didn't superman show up and punch the cops in the head? Why didn't all Police officers resign that day? Think about it.
@ I have to agree with you aside from that men in blue don't give up their brother within the law enforcement no matter what the situation is..there are some exceptions but that's seldom 😳
I love how politely though she ended the other interview. She was so very respectful. Such a hardworking reporter. Wishing the Floyd family my condolences
Offering condolences is a must to this brave family, but justice must be served to give comfort to this grieving family and make an example of others who would even think about mistreating others who fall in their claws! This is not the wild Wild West, Trump!
Hani Totru We’re talking about systematic racism and your here talking about presidents? What’s wrong with you? There need to be a systematic change it has nothing to do with who is president
Polynesian Beauty85, CNN and the mayors of these horrible liberal cities crack down more On COVID-19 people trying to get back to work, than these thug rioters and looters. Wow, where has my great country that I helped make great again gone?
that's what a lot of people do when they are dying, when trapped and death is imminent; I've been wounded pretty severely before and cried out for my mother, I was treated though and survived, but I'll never forget that feeling of being trapped and unable to free myself from that feeling of being cut off from all hope it seemed,
@Paul Carson ok I get what you are saying. I agree, but the cop can't decide to kill him. The cop has definitely planned to kill him, he kneeled the man for over 5 minutes. When he couldn't have just take him to jail. And don't tell a man in handcuffs was a threat to him.
Journalist did a good job in relaying the message there. The police chief was a clear as he could possibly be. I wish the D.A's office would prosecute the other officers cause as he said it silence is complicity and that resulted in this man's death
Silence is complicity. That is where I have such a problem. How can fellow officers defend and stay silent about this abuse. Anyone who stands by, lies should be charged too I know you need to be able to trust those you work with in jobs like these but; to defend murder or abuse by officers is taking it too far.
Agreed. He could have come off with the usual, "My hands are tied. It's not up to me. Etc." He didn't. He made his feelings known. On the record. On live TV. With the FBI involved, they would have jurisdiction, I'd assume? As Chief, CAN he even arrest another officer w/out Federal authority? The DA, FBI &/or WHOMEVER make the decision need to 💩 or get off the 🚽!!!
They need to be prosecuted as accomplices and go to prison. derek chauvin killed Georges Floyd like A LION IS KILLING BUFFALO. Oh my God. I can't watch and can't watch the others police brutality. I can't stand ISIS policemenm
Rodney King preached, " No violence. " As a result... DIRTY, CORRUPT COPS ARE THRIVING IN AMERICA !!!!!! This is why it is time to FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE !!!!!!
This is so unbelievable. I'm crying my eyes out. My heart is broken for the Floyd family. My anger cannot be tame right now. I understand the Chief did his best, but really this is an unbelievable thing to witness
I agree with you, i have not watched the whole video because I just couldn't, but heard about what all happened. I cant stop thinking of how he got killed and what his last words were. We were all ready hurt because of this corona virus and all the things it brought and the lives it took, now this. He was a HUMAN! HE WAS KILLED BY SOMEONE WHO IS SUPPOSED TO PROTECT. THIS BREAKS MY HEART IN SO MANY WAYS. WE NEED TO PRAY. God bless. Stay safe and alert at all times.❤

@Khalil Yardon Did he has that authority? i think his authority ends on the firing. that was a clear sign that the officers killed him. conviction has to do with the courts, that my thought. the attorney or judge is responsible for conviction and sentence.
As do I but if he truly means what he says he should pressure the DA to arrest and charge the other three officers. This is 2020 I've read about this in the history books when I was a child. Dem or Rep same damn thing mofos don't care.
exactly, they have a slang for it, "gypsy cops" it's a joke to the police, they get rehired by another precinct sometimes just blocks away - their record never follows them.

@@livinglifetv4798 Crazy Americans, who thinks the Chief deserve any respect..... poor and stupid mentality. The Chief should be in the Jail next to his employer. In our country the Chief would be fired in the same second. If u work in a position in general public u have responsibility u cant allow someone like that officer in his job, there are no excuses. So the Chief hold the same responsibility as his officers and sometime even more..... But if i see what for a President u guys choice i even cant discuss such matters in a serious way.... I mean our President just got fired afew years ago because he didnt register 100 dollar, I MEAN IT WAS JUST 100 dollar!! But its a different story if someone in a general public position 'who carrys responsibility' do it or some one from the population. So if a see ur President and his actions and Statements i cant believe this guy is still the President. I mean u guys just skyrocket the level of crazyness of a whole new planet. U Guys have a big problem with ur gouverment system.....lets hope u will undergo a change. So u or any other post who defend or even proclaim there respect for him are just crazy for other Humans.

It's really disappointing that you have that view. Clearly he cared. Clearly, he knows that an injustice occurred under his ranks. To suggest that he 'might' just be a good actor is, I think disingenuine to this chief.
@@JonathanS344 I agree with you. In another video he even told trump to shut his mouth if he has nothing constructive to say. He is being very genuine and heartfelt in this video. Some people can only see negativity when people try to do good.

TheBjiii well... there is so call duty and responsibility in any kind of jobs or careers... Different people choose what they like to do in their life whatever they choose will have to take responsibility and embrace what they do... there is no such thing that nobody want to be police... and moreover nobody force them to join the force I assume...
Prophet muhammad(pease be upon him) O people,your lord is one and your father adam is one.

Have I not delivered the message?" They said, "The Messenger of Allah has delivered the message."
You got that right. There are actually australian journalists, canadian journalists, and journalists from many other countries in jail for covering the riots. The CNN journalists were released, but all foreign journalists still in prison.
Really? So because some cops are going vigilante and killing people, that means the rest of us are banned from speaking on the issue? These things shouldn’t happen, no question-but we are starting to see more of these officers getting fired and then getting indicted for their crimes. We’ve got a long way to go, for sure. And we are waaaaay ahead of most nations when it comes to human rights violations. We have to do better, and it will get better-not soon enough.
All four should b life off but the one who was on top his neck should go to the chair and have his life taken eye and eye tooth for tooth simple has there should be made example of to show the police there they cant keep killing innocent people?
This was riveting. My heart goes out to the Floyd Family and the professionalism of this reporter. The police chief said he grew up a block from the spot George Floyd was murdered ... You can feel the pain and anguish. Canada is with you ❤
Just hearing the officer you know that the man is genuinely speaking from the heart. He even took his hat off to show his respect. That is a true man and a real compassionate man
This is by far the dumbest thing I’ve seen. Who has ever been arrested for a broken tail light it’s a traffic violation or a warning not an arrestable offense in not one of the 52 states😑
@@NatsumeKonno It's usually not drugs found, since normally a cop can't search a vehicle for a broken tail light... but if they have so much as a warrant for an unpaid parking ticket, they can be arrested and vehicle searched.
That was so emotional watching on so many different levels. I am in tears. It is actually a very powerful thing to hear a police chief call it like he sees it and doesn't put a spin on it. It shouldn't be a powerful moment but I have never seen that before. It has always been a spin to make things look better for the officers.
Clorissti Shoemo, Yes! The Chief does not have to be that transparent... most leaders would deflect and seek counsel on what to say/which words to use. It is very touchy dealing with the union, charges, and convictions, but he gave his opinion, expressed his feelings, and seemed very sincere. This community (and this nation) needs more of that.
SO HE IS SAYING THAT THE FBI IS INVESTIGATING AND THEY WILL MAKE THOSE DECISIONS ON WHAT THEY WILL DO. THIS CHIEF HAS RESPECT FOR THE FLOYD FAMILY. HE TOOK HIS HAT OFF. HE DID HIS JOB , NOW ITS UP TO THE OTHERS TO DO THIER JOB.
I wish everyone would take a look a Chief Arradondo's record. This guy fought the system from within the department. I believe he even joined internal affairs rooting out bad cops. He is the real deal. I've known him since I was a young kid, and I've looked up to him since then. He's the first Chief to take action as quick as he did. He's doing everything he can right now to allow people to grieve while protecting people's safety. He's between a rock and hard place, but if anyone can help this situation, rest assured, Chief Arradondo will do EVERYTHING in his POWER to do just that.
He's just covering his own tail. The cop that killed George had 19 previous complaints. The chief of police did nothing and now we are here. His words are sooooo fake. Don't be fooled.
I don't need an autopsy to tell me how George died. I know what I saw, he was strangled to death in the middle of the street by a sociopath in broad daylight.
That's why the Floyd family shelled out money for an independent autopsy, which straight up said it was homicide by asphyxiation. They will need that 2nd autopsy in court.
As a black man living in America I won't all those officers charged with murder, I don't give a damn rather you gave on a blue and black suit, murder is murder any way you look at it
He is in an incredible position, having to speak for the actions of thugs when they are too lame to be men. The other 3 should have handed themselves over by now. If you said nothing, you agreed with officer knee's actions! Where is the DA on this?
lots of people just doing their chores get shot, even kids as young as 10 years old got shot for doing "Mysterious activity". imagine how many fucking family ruined by this pointless war
Before I respond (so you don't get the wrong idea) I am on your side. Mr. Floyd did not show signs of suffocation during the preliminary examination.. He had preexisting medical conditions. I wouldn't be surprised to see evidence that suggests the stress he was put in caused medical emergency due to those conditions leading to his death. WHAT REALLY STANDS OUT TO ME is that Mr. Floyd became unresponsive, an attending officer couldn't find a pulse, yet the officer STILL kept his knee on the back of his neck for almost 3 minutes AFTER that.
If I remember correctly, the total time was a 8 minutes and 53 seconds, so about 9 minutes. After about 7 of those minutes, Floyd either died or passed out.
@@VvImpalervV that is exactly what makes me think this is premeditated and that these two had bad blood for each other somewhere at some point it was known that they worked at the same Club as bouncers so there could be a connection as for all the looters and rioters I hope they get convicted as well we need policy changes within our government not looters and rioters trying to tell us what to do
@Kathleen R. I'm out of this whole protest thing, especially with how far people are taking this. But how is George a piece of crap? I don't know anything on his history but this not really the point. If he did have this kinda life it still isn't right to arrest him for a possible crime he committed back than. Even if he did do something terrible (I still don't think know much on this situation), it still doesn't make it right. There were multiple officers there, he was handcuffed, following orders, and while he was being choked by a knee he specifically told him he can't breath. The guy basically slowly died while they didn't care. Also I have never heard one person say he was hero. I was probably not looking a the right place but not 1 person ever said he was hero. By the time he was in cuffs and on the ground he was victim .
The murder of a man is a dramatic thing. People calling for justice are not starting a drama, the officers who participated in the murder did a fine job of that themselves
@@Lov2WatchSweetVidz still raising a riot in alot of places in the United States is drama just because of one brutality it's not like they go killing random black people who disobay the laws like come on I understand that it's not the right thing and right choice to do but don't you think it's over reacting to steal from stores and not get in trouble to burn things just for the heck of it and to hurt police people who's only doing there jobs like what the hell is wrong with people these days and those people sticking fingers and acting all cocky as hell is very dramatic and isint helping the situation people are very stupid and have the stupidity of a rock and I'm pretty sure he did something hes not suppost to to get into this whole shit mess black or white why wont people act positive or something atleast obey the rules and not think your slick for using a fake 20$ bill and I know the police man was overreacting but holy heck why did he do that in the first place and why was the police man so stupid enough to do that to kill a person while being recorded
Wow. Powerful. Sara you did beautifully. The police chief showed integrity, incredible empathy and respect. Flloyd family, we are with you. We share your grief. I teared up on this one.
The Minneapolis police department employs 1,100 police officers so he cant exactly be responsible for every single one of them, that is why he has lower level managers. Also, the reason why they were not fired is because police unions back them, and arbitration heavily sides with the officers anyway. I really dont think you can blame the chief for that.
Part of that is unions. Not saying all unions are bad but they do make it difficult to fire someone even if they did wrong. If its within the scope of the job and there's room to cause some doubt they can use the union to fight for them.
I was in tears watching this. My heart goes out to the Floyd family. The Police Chief was so respectful and was honest about his lack of power to arrest the other Police Officers who stood by watching. I hope that justice is done and all the Officers involved get the highest penalty. God bless you all.
Not true, Chief of police can arrest any officers he needs to..BS if you can fire them, you can arrest them.. Leaders set the tone for the worker in their department.
He's been swift but we need the other officers that were involved... also Sara was awesome how she jumped in there so respectful and took over the interview
He is the chief not the DA, his power was limited to just firing them, he did as much as he could as quickly as he could. This is not the bad cop your looking for
shane tackett yup, its top down systemic. It’s tied to economics and the top of the chain don’t have any plans to change a thing. It’s going to take a revolution or it’s just bandaids and the cycle continues.
What you are saying is true. The civil suit is long coming since the officers in question were not trained, committed assault, dismissed civil right, and commit murder. Here something to watch for which of those ex- officers are going to sing first. Who are they cover for. Maybe they (ex-officers) are getting the same support Zimmer had during his court proceedings.
👍⭐️Respect to this police chief!!! 💝 The chief’s authority allows him to fire the animals and make a stand for what is right. The DA’s authority is to bring charges. A jury can convict. 👍⭐️Respect to this news journalist. Good, clear, direct questions that needed to be asked.

When she asked him straight up “should he have been on the police force?” And the chief went into a long explanation.... 🙄. Just say no, he should not have been on the police force. He was one of the bad apples. There are many police who want to serve the people the right way, but sadly he was no one of them. Just say no he should not have been a cop. People are tired of hearing long drawn out political excuses for illegal police actions and police brutality.
Not to mention that the cop and victim had worked together for 10 years as bouncers so there was some animosity between them. The victim also had been a porn star under the stage name "Floyd the landlord".
It's TRUE. I agree with you, but I also can't imagine the guilt and shame that he must be feeling. That can eat a person a live. Maybe, when he was answering that question, he was beating himself up from within.

They are slippery political snakes. These type never accept responsibility, and it is why policing in Minneapolis is so brutal and lethal.
@@markbleasdale2934 I know. I never complain about individual police officers, as they are only doing what the others are doing. I know the UK. There are plenty of slimeballs there also, at the top. In New Zealand where I am from, police are trying to reform. If a policeman does something bad there, the Commissioner is fired.
O yes trump has an answer to dat.cos going back to trump's election he was by his side all through.so it was a backstage way to get in the force. They are all a bag of shit.
The fact that She’s shocked and amazed that a police chief said that, says a lot about these situations overall and it’s sad.
If Trump would give us police reform as quickly as he controlled Twitter after they put a fact check on one of his tweets this would be over by now.
We can do better with this human issue. Let's choose to being divided by fear and guilt. It is a self-destructive cycle that the individual can change. Solutions that break through the race-baiting drama of the past are closer than we think. The world is changing...

Anyone here after the testimony of Chief Arradondo in the trial? This man really seems like an exemplary and honorable human being. Impressed every time I see him speak.
The Chief demonstrated humanity. That's exactly what can heal this wound.

And where is trumpf? Under the bunker hiding with malalia and donnie jr? I can only see his big mouth sticking out! :)
I not feeling the chief, the police officer had 18 complaints against him he should had been fired long ago. Chief fell at his job looking out for the public
S J the world is how it always was in a sense. There are always good people doing the right thing, but they are never mentioned. It’s the bad apples out of the bunch that are brought to attention. This is what brings the feeling”losing faith in humanity” or “what can heal this world”
If followed by action yeah..but i do not trust it as of not..
“we have to look at the complaints” he had 18 and had killed 3 other people and now you want to look at them? did the legitimate complaints just sit at the bottom of a drawer??
Exactly. Basically, he's saying that we need a few endless investigations that will lead to nothing! Justice is now in the hands of the mob because there is no justice in our justice system.

I can't imagine, and I lost my oldest son to drugs. It was the biggest sucker punch, but I can't imagine seeing on live tv another man pressing on my sons neck, as he pleads for his life, and seeing that look in the cop's eyes as he presses down harder and after 8 minutes without mercy he murders my son!! That is unforgivable!!! May God bless and be with his mother and family right now! I feel their pain, but not to the same extent, and this is what white America has to understand!!! This is why they are so angry beyond words, because they have been abused and murdered for far too long!! We have to back them up. Find a way to work together so that we can save our nation, and make it an America that we can be proud of and is in step with uniting the people of the world! Bless you! 😉❤
That family is the only one to have the right to have anger. The others are just moved by political ideas.

Khalil Yardon my dear you need to rewatch the video somethings are out of his control. He is only the police chief not the state attorney. He did fire all the cops however the person that killed george has been arrested. The state is still investigating this matter. Yes I feel the sameway they should all be in jail for not speaking up. However you need understand as well this is a pinacle step in history, where too many white cops have gone unpunished for the crimes they commited. This is pretty much a first where a cop has been prosecuted. It is upsetting but we will have to wait and see what punishment the other cops get. There are layers to this and as the chief said himself, this is not his call to make he is only the police chief and there are people above him. A decision like that can effect how all police officers opperate and what can happen to in the future.
Before you guys come crucify me I know very little about politics this is just from observation the point I have to make.

He has no gun
He was not resisting arrest
Why did the other police not acted? Could it be a game?
Why is it that us only the masses are THE one to suffer? And those we elected as leaders can not defend us then why do we have leaders? Why do we gave police men? I can understand if it was a gun man who walked to him and shot him or a civilian attack and kill him or even if it was a police let it be in self defence BUT just brutality to a man who has not been charge charged and sentence for dead penalty .

This is an incredible interview! The police chief showed respect, thought, and a demand for justice. In over 70 years, I have not seen anything like it. I am very emotive and sad. Congratulations to the INTERVIEWER.
The most incredible interview so far on this tragedy. It felt real, honest and with raw emotion. Thank you for this and for your display of sensitivity, compassion, and humanity.
Why weren't the officers charged at the scene and taken to jail and then fired and denied bail? Chief should resign. The city council needs to go ahead and write a huge check to the Floyd family because it's coming!!
Yep, that would have happened to any of us.
Because he was a police officer, he is above the law (he thought), thank god it was on video. I hope this is the start of change. Unfortunately too late for Mr Floyd and all the other poor people before. Rest in peace with you mum.
Most cops are not very bright and nothing but schoolyard bullies.
You might be taking it a mile too far there. Why didn't superman show up and punch the cops in the head?
Why didn't all Police officers resign that day? Think about it.
The Chief fired them as soon as he saw the video. He doesn't have the authority to charge them that's up to the DA.
I am so sorry for the Floyd Family. I thought the police chief spoke well in this situation.
He said some very beautiful things, now he just needs to followup his words with actions
@ eh, I'd have to know more about his career to really judge, but he certainly seemed sincere to me.
why haven't the other officers not been arrested? There was enough evidence to fire them there is enough evidence to arrest them
@ I have to agree with you aside from that men in blue don't give up their brother within the law enforcement no matter what the situation is..there are some exceptions but that's seldom 😳

@Paul Carson ok I get what you are saying. I agree, but the cop can't decide to kill him. The cop has definitely planned to kill him, he kneeled the man for over 5 minutes. When he couldn't have just take him to jail. And don't tell a man in handcuffs was a threat to him.
Journalist did a good job in relaying the message there. The police chief was a clear as he could possibly be. I wish the D.A's office would prosecute the other officers cause as he said it silence is complicity and that resulted in this man's death
Silence is complicity. That is where I have such a problem. How can fellow officers defend and stay silent about this abuse. Anyone who stands by, lies should be charged too I know you need to be able to trust those you work with in jobs like these but; to defend murder or abuse by officers is taking it too far.
Agreed. He could have come off with the usual, "My hands are tied. It's not up to me. Etc." He didn't. He made his feelings known. On the record. On live TV. With the FBI involved, they would have jurisdiction, I'd assume? As Chief, CAN he even arrest another officer w/out Federal authority? The DA, FBI &/or WHOMEVER make the decision need to 💩 or get off the 🚽!!!
Damn. U fine baby

So the Chief hold the same responsibility as his officers and sometime even more..... But if i see what for a President u guys choice i even cant discuss such matters in a serious way.... I mean our President just got fired afew years ago because he didnt register 100 dollar, I MEAN IT WAS JUST 100 dollar!!

It's really disappointing that you have that view. Clearly he cared. Clearly, he knows that an injustice occurred under his ranks. To suggest that he 'might' just be a good actor is, I think disingenuine to this chief.
@@citrusreality64 Ah yes, and Epstein killed himself.
@@JonathanS344 I agree with you. In another video he even told trump to shut his mouth if he has nothing constructive to say. He is being very genuine and heartfelt in this video. Some people can only see negativity when people try to do good.
@@melina1337 Sadly, this is true.
They are all actors. US justice system is all a theatre. It’s so funny we talk about here how all Americans are expected to be actors when they go into court to defend themselves. Oh he smirked during trial, he guilty. Oh he yawned, he showed no remorse. Fuck you all. Worlds watching you 😡
Best question by this reporter: “Should he have been on the force in the first place?” wow, salute
TheBjiii well... there is so call duty and responsibility in any kind of jobs or careers... Different people choose what they like to do in their life whatever they choose will have to take responsibility and embrace what they do... there is no such thing that nobody want to be police... and moreover nobody force them to join the force I assume...

You got that right. There are actually australian journalists, canadian journalists, and journalists from many other countries in jail for covering the riots. The CNN journalists were released, but all foreign journalists still in prison.
I disagree ,we are Faaar from where we should be but we are going to make progress !
Lovin ItAll howgh!
Land of the killings home of the hate.
Really? So because some cops are going vigilante and killing people, that means the rest of us are banned from
speaking on the issue? These things shouldn’t happen, no question-but we are starting to see more of these officers getting fired and then getting indicted for their crimes. We’ve got a long way to go, for sure. And we are waaaaay ahead of most nations when it comes to human rights violations. We have to do better, and it will get better-not soon enough.
They fired him that quick because they were caught red handed.🙏🏾
I find it stunning that they knew they were being video’d, yet still continued to murder in cold blood! 😳😡😡😡😡
Being fired doesn't mean much ..they have to take away his liscense to be involved in law enforcement
🥱
Yep
@@catalinacurio my brother and I discussed this, that is just sheer hate, just sheer hate.
LAW enforcement should get that POLICE OFFICER to pay for his ACTS
All four should b life off but the one who was on top his neck should go to the chair and have his life taken eye and eye tooth for tooth simple has there should be made example of to show the police there they cant keep killing innocent people?
If a black man killed a white officer out there he would b executed simply?
This is WHAT we need. Come out from behind your armor and sticks, and be PART of the community!
Agree 💯 Joseph
This is the first intelligent thing I've heard in this situation so far. Please keep protesting and please stop the looting. That will solve nothing.
like how Floyd was part of the criminal community? stf u
They are only going to be peaceful if you are peaceful, you need to remember that
This was riveting. My heart goes out to the Floyd Family and the professionalism of this reporter. The police chief said he grew up a block from the spot George Floyd was murdered ... You can feel the pain and anguish. Canada is with you ❤
THANK YOU FOR BEING AN ALLY CANADA!!! RACISM HAS NO BORDERS!

Just hearing the officer you know that the man is genuinely speaking from the heart. He even took his hat off to show his respect. That is a true man and a real compassionate man
Same compassionate man who allows the other 3 to still be free
Don't be fooled.
@@allyouget4960 he doesn't have the power to arrest them.

People get arrested for a broken tail light. I'm damn sure they can arrest these people.
Kevin Russell FACTS
This is by far the dumbest thing I’ve seen. Who has ever been arrested for a broken tail light it’s a traffic violation or a warning not an arrestable offense in not one of the 52 states😑
Yes they do after the find the drugs there hiding. But if it's just a broken light then it's a warning or a ticket.
@@NatsumeKonno It's usually not drugs found, since normally a cop can't search a vehicle for a broken tail light... but if they have so much as a warrant for an unpaid parking ticket, they can be arrested and vehicle searched.
man, I sure hope I don't get arrested for a fake 20 dollar bill...
That was so emotional watching on so many different levels. I am in tears. It is actually a very powerful thing to hear a police chief call it like he sees it and doesn't put a spin on it. It shouldn't be a powerful moment but I have never seen that before. It has always been a spin to make things look better for the officers.
Well done Sara and Police Chief!! Much respect for Chief Arredondo being straight forward as well as respectful to the Floyd family. I'm in tears.
Me 2 clorissti
Clorissti Shoemo, Yes! The Chief does not have to be that transparent... most leaders would deflect and seek counsel on what to say/which words to use. It is very touchy dealing with the union, charges, and convictions, but he gave his opinion, expressed his feelings, and seemed very sincere. This community (and this nation) needs more of that.
SO HE IS SAYING THAT THE FBI IS INVESTIGATING AND THEY WILL MAKE THOSE DECISIONS ON WHAT THEY WILL DO.
THIS CHIEF HAS RESPECT FOR THE FLOYD FAMILY. HE TOOK HIS HAT OFF.
HE DID HIS JOB , NOW ITS UP TO THE OTHERS TO DO THIER JOB.
Thank you because these are also FACTS
I wish everyone would take a look a Chief Arradondo's record. This guy fought the system from within the department. I believe he even joined internal affairs rooting out bad cops. He is the real deal. I've known him since I was a young kid, and I've looked up to him since then. He's the first Chief to take action as quick as he did. He's doing everything he can right now to allow people to grieve while protecting people's safety. He's between a rock and hard place, but if anyone can help this situation, rest assured, Chief Arradondo will do EVERYTHING in his POWER to do just that.
The chief is so respectful god bless him
He's just covering his own tail. The cop that killed George had 19 previous complaints. The chief of police did nothing and now we are here. His words are sooooo fake. Don't be fooled.
@@deborahjohnson5463 realize not all people are bad
I don't need an autopsy to tell me how George died. I know what I saw, he was strangled to death in the middle of the street by a sociopath in broad daylight.
Yes a sociopath is right..he has to be a cold blooded killer!
Yup! Disgusting!
I agree but he wasnt strangled
That's why the Floyd family shelled out money for an independent autopsy, which straight up said it was homicide by asphyxiation. They will need that 2nd autopsy in court.
Exactly and the independent autopsy revealed that. Totally contradictory of what the initial medical examiner said.... smdh
As a black man living in America I won't all those officers charged with murder, I don't give a damn rather you gave on a blue and black suit, murder is murder any way you look at it
Well unfortunately, the rules follow. You can't do anything about it.
Thank you Chief. I have the utmost RESPECT for what this man did and the humility that he has shown.
He is in an incredible position, having to speak for the actions of thugs when they are too lame to be men. The other 3 should have handed themselves over by now. If you said nothing, you agreed with officer knee's actions! Where is the DA on this?
he is the kind of chief we need, but sadly, chiefs like him are few and far between. www.stloiyf.com/blog
Squid Ink exactly, it’s for optics and PR and nothing else. it’s all for show. there trying to trick us.
@Rache; Meatte only one has a murder charge, he hasn't been convicted yet
The Chief strikes me as a decent human being doing his best within his level of responsibility.
Imagine for a second what they have done to Afghans and Iraqis, where there were no camera no reporter.
I think about this all the time. Some of the stories that do make it out are horrifying
lots of people just doing their chores get shot, even kids as young as 10 years old got shot for doing "Mysterious activity". imagine how many fucking family ruined by this pointless war
right?
So sorry... No doubt.
😭😢😢😢
She said his knee was on George's neck for 7 minutes. It was 8 minutes, 46 seconds. When it only takes 4 minutes to suffocate a person.
She said AT LEAST 7. Open your ears.
B.K.R. Doggielover she said more than 7 minutes
Before I respond (so you don't get the wrong idea) I am on your side. Mr. Floyd did not show signs of suffocation during the preliminary examination.. He had preexisting medical conditions. I wouldn't be surprised to see evidence that suggests the stress he was put in caused medical emergency due to those conditions leading to his death. WHAT REALLY STANDS OUT TO ME is that Mr. Floyd became unresponsive, an attending officer couldn't find a pulse, yet the officer STILL kept his knee on the back of his neck for almost 3 minutes AFTER that.
If I remember correctly, the total time was a 8 minutes and 53 seconds, so about 9 minutes. After about 7 of those minutes, Floyd either died or passed out.
@@VvImpalervV that is exactly what makes me think this is premeditated and that these two had bad blood for each other somewhere at some point it was known that they worked at the same Club as bouncers so there could be a connection as for all the looters and rioters I hope they get convicted as well we need policy changes within our government not looters and rioters trying to tell us what to do
Go ask the shop owner why they called the police? They need questioning too.
"we need to get better in this profession" great statement.
Kathleen R. “Give up on them because they can’t handle laws and civility” excuse you, says who??? You’ve been conditioned to think this way, clearly.
@Kathleen R. ....🤦🏽♀️
@Kathleen R. I'm out of this whole protest thing, especially with how far people are taking this. But how is George a piece of crap? I don't know anything on his history but this not really the point. If he did have this kinda life it still isn't right to arrest him for a possible crime he committed back than. Even if he did do something terrible (I still don't think know much on this situation), it still doesn't make it right. There were multiple officers there, he was handcuffed, following orders, and while he was being choked by a knee he specifically told him he can't breath. The guy basically slowly died while they didn't care.
Also I have never heard one person say he was hero. I was probably not looking a the right place but not 1 person ever said he was hero. By the time he was in cuffs and on the ground he was victim .
@Kathleen R. Shameless

The murder of a man is a dramatic thing. People calling for justice are not starting a drama, the officers who participated in the murder did a fine job of that themselves
@@Lov2WatchSweetVidz still raising a riot in alot of places in the United States is drama just because of one brutality it's not like they go killing random black people who disobay the laws like come on I understand that it's not the right thing and right choice to do but don't you think it's over reacting to steal from stores and not get in trouble to burn things just for the heck of it and to hurt police people who's only doing there jobs like what the hell is wrong with people these days and those people sticking fingers and acting all cocky as hell is very dramatic and isint helping the situation people are very stupid and have the stupidity of a rock and I'm pretty sure he did something hes not suppost to to get into this whole shit mess black or white why wont people act positive or something atleast obey the rules and not think your slick for using a fake 20$ bill and I know the police man was overreacting but holy heck why did he do that in the first place and why was the police man so stupid enough to do that to kill a person while being recorded
Wow. Powerful. Sara you did beautifully. The police chief showed integrity, incredible empathy and respect. Flloyd family, we are with you. We share your grief. I teared up on this one.
"Silence -- is complicit" -- Seems like that might be applied to a chief who allows an officer with 18 complaints to have a gun and a badge.
Exactly but it's the white people's fault
This is not about race this is about policy
@@JOEYO3 Didnt you just say it's the white peoples fault
The Minneapolis police department employs 1,100 police officers so he cant exactly be responsible for every single one of them, that is why he has lower level managers. Also, the reason why they were not fired is because police unions back them, and arbitration heavily sides with the officers anyway. I really dont think you can blame the chief for that.
Part of that is unions. Not saying all unions are bad but they do make it difficult to fire someone even if they did wrong. If its within the scope of the job and there's room to cause some doubt they can use the union to fight for them.
I was in tears watching this. My heart goes out to the Floyd family. The Police Chief was so respectful and was honest about his lack of power to arrest the other Police Officers who stood by watching. I hope that justice is done and all the Officers involved get the highest penalty. God bless you all.
Jajaaaa
Not true, Chief of police can arrest any officers he needs to..BS if you can fire them, you can arrest them.. Leaders set the tone for the worker in their department.
Norma Alexander your boss can fire you, but cannot arrest you. So I guess this is not so simple.

She was a perfect facilitator.
fair is fair-She asked all the right and important questions and had compassion and patience. She’s a great reporter!

It's not just in Minnesota I live in FLORENCE S.C. and the Sheriff's department here feel that they are above us and can do as they want to us.
What you are saying is true. The civil suit is long coming since the officers in question were not trained, committed assault, dismissed civil right, and commit murder. Here something to watch for which of those ex- officers are going to sing first. Who are they cover for. Maybe they (ex-officers) are getting the same support Zimmer had during his court proceedings.
The whole Sc like this I’m from Charleston they flooded with KKK members in our police force

The chief’s authority allows him to fire the animals and make a stand for what is right. The DA’s authority is to bring charges. A jury can convict.

Any sign of respect speaks volumes
When she asked him straight up “should he have been on the police force?” And the chief went into a long explanation.... 🙄. Just say no, he should not have been on the police force. He was one of the bad apples. There are many police who want to serve the people the right way, but sadly he was no one of them. Just say no he should not have been a cop. People are tired of hearing long drawn out political excuses for illegal police actions and police brutality.
Not to mention that the cop and victim had worked together for 10 years as bouncers so there was some animosity between them. The victim also had been a porn star under the stage name "Floyd the landlord".
It's TRUE. I agree with you, but I also can't imagine the guilt and shame that he must be feeling. That can eat a person a live. Maybe, when he was answering that question, he was beating himself up from within.
You could've just said no but you too explained in detail, as he did.
