and you said that he was kind of putting his hands up and putting his head back and things of that nature it triggered and you then went back into the store talked to your manager again and told him they were not agreeable to coming into the store credit and. the 2nd time you left the store. you were sort of following the other coworkers agreed could and you would agree that that video sort of show of the 3 of you. almost running out of the store credit and you were you want to get them before they drove away right. or why would you run the 2nd time could i mean just so they didn't drive away or for some other reason good. you know in terms of the 2nd exchange at the vehicle. the coworker went to the driver side at 1st right

credit you stayed back a little bit right through it and then you were brought back up to the vehicle right yes and you heard what was the conversation you heard what was being said both by the passenger of the vehicle as well as your coworker could you indicated that. the passenger pulled out the other $20.00 bill right pick it up of the ground why was it on the ground because he threw it on the ground. the bill that mr floyd used was that still in the store could. and so this other $20.00 bill was thrown he threw it on the ground right could your coworker picks it up and who ripped it the person that was in the present or he handed it to your coworker handed it back to him or something. or did he return it and then throw it on the ground. first in the pageant she threw on the

ground the boat was talking to and the person picked it up and about ok and again this conversation was primarily with the drug scene in the passenger vehicle . and there was a female in the back seat of the car. was she in gauged in the conversation at all either no or so and mr floyd again he was not really part of the conversation at that point either. he didn't say he didn't know remember him saying anything. i do not recall ok but again you described his behavior i think as kind of shaking his head . putting his hands putting his head back things of that nature. the 2nd conversation was the demeanor of the tenor of that conversation

more he did. yes. and there was an outright refusal by the by either mr floyd or his passenger to come back into the store. and it was based on that conversation that you decided to or it was decided by your manager to call 911. and again you were present and heard the 911 call. in your initial conversation with agents when they were asked. when they were asking you about approaching the vehicle do you recall describing it as a hot. what does that mean. a lot of situations. here

and. you risk do you recall describe in your conversation and the words that mr floyd was having trouble saying. could. do you remember now today what words mr fleischer was having troubles or no would it have been baseball i remember saying that. you remember you don't remember what refresh your writing not a poem to refresh your recollection to you a transcript of your statement absolutely. wrong page it didn't just say.

i followed as i can't find it right now well we may come back to that do you recall describing some other behaviors of mr florida while he was in the store correct what were those behaviors he was doing a couple of stretches like a lunch ok kind of like kind of stepping forward like in the us it was more of a side lunch started like that so for the record i understand kind of feet together and stretching over to the side with one leg right putting his arms in front of him. and kind of based on your observations of his behavior his speech patterns that's what. what caused you to form the impression he was under the

influence. not then you alternately. met with the prosecution team on march 12th in preparation for your testimony. and that's when you. were able to view some of the videos that we've watched here today. and again. where you understood that there were agents or law enforcement officers that were there about time. you recall telling. them that you felt that mr floyd couldn't comprehend the conversation. which member station in your conversation with him the 1st letters. i did not recall but if

that's how much and that's the would. know. you said after that phone call to the police you didn't see the police kind of come in the store getting deal with them an issue could and you had. you had these kind of went back to work right dealing with customers goofing off with your coworkers kind of just average day right. but then at some point you noticed there was a commotion outside and you decided to go back outside and see what's going on right. and you said the 1st thing you did was to call your mom to tell her

not to come downstairs occurred and then you walked over and you started recording right occurred and then after you did some recording you. hear you saw your coworker appear to be pushed by the police. and you got your coworker you brought him back inside and did not your other coworkers kind of went back inside right and you stayed outside or you appeared that you walked back to the door and then walked back to the crowd could and you described the crowd that they were yelling and screaming. could and at one point you tried to actually. stop stop someone or. hold them back could. that individual appear to be pretty angry. and you how them back because you didn't

want him to get involved yes well not necessarily angry just been pushed so he was trying to defend himself. and he kind of just said to him you know calm down and stand back right. i have no further questions or thank you very much for your time. and the redirect just.

predator working or during your work a couple years they ever send you to training in how to identify a fake bill no more just kind of learning from experience. when you did interact with mr floyd in the store well this is demeanor like. he seemed very friendly. approachable is talkative you seem to just be having. more days just living his life but he did seem. during the 2nd trip to the vehicle. it was your coworker who did the majority of the talking to you mr floyd in the passenger. so mr nelson asked you to agree that that was a more heated conversation was it you who made it more heated or your coworker my

coworker. and mr nelson if you agree that there was an outright refusal to come back into the store was that. actual wording that was used or were that just mr nelson's words outright refusal those who listen those and rude words mr floyd did not say to you all right refusing to come back and still no but to be fair they were not coming back and the story. you were asked also about the stretch is that mr floyd was doing at the store and mr nelson demonstrated for us that was a pretty accurate demonstration of what you saw or heard during that mr nelson i'm sorry mr floyd did not fall down. and there was this balance of you know. when he indicated you were. wanted to go buy some cigarettes. and he both had moved

out of the cigarette counter correct. and is that what do you do to tell you i want to buy some cigarettes. tell you what brand you want to. i do not call on you we saw you just grab it back right i could have been the case and you gave them to him. he provided you money and took the change right through to his able to leave that whole transaction correct absolutely you don't have to guess what cigarettes he won. credit. anything for are there any repros.

sorry thank you. you asked a couple of questions about the counterfeit no credit. is due you get a lot of counterfeit bills in that store no have it hasn't happened before. and i believe you were previously asked about good counterfeits and bad counterfeits in your statements were always. going to know about. have you seen some bills that are better counterfeits than other bills i don't think so ok but i'm personally not ok but you understood that immediately this was a kind of. nothing for. words.

well. there so it's. heroes christopher bell freed of the stand. and these are these were all 'd and we're continuing to watch here the trial of derek in the police officer who's accused of killing george floyd we've wrapped up testimony from one of the witnesses a key witness the employee mr martin who worked in the shop

a lot of emphasis in the last hour on what you could say is characterizing how aware are cognizant. or allegedly hi george floyd was we heard a lot of exchanges between the defense and the witness on the one hand as well as the prosecution and the witnesses about what george lloyd could say now that. and his movements in the in the shop now with cold another witness of me now is in colton it's time let's listen in to his testimony 45. and. just tell us if you were in the general area where you live. only out of. may 25th of 2020 is that where you looked. like what we do for 22 years where i live no no is that where you lived on that day.

and how long have you lived in south minneapolis. and you are from well let me ask you this way are you familiar with the area of 38th in chicago. and is there a store. at one of the corners least one of the corners of 30 years in chicago we're based on may 25th there was yes. it was there also a restaurant there as well as the restaurant and that at that intersection what was the neighborhood out that they don't know ok through may 21st the 2020 did you go to the area 30 years in chicago to get some food from one of those restaurants. cut through ok so you want to cut foods to get food right but there's another restaurant across through gattuso that was so my fault right.

so you went to that intersection sometime in the late afternoon early evening correct her. and where did you did you drive yes what did you park. on the corner of the 30 acres on the various are facing. blows to our as i see or. so what i'm going to do is i'm going to put up something we've had admitted as exhibit one. that should come up on the screen in front of you know. your see that photograph right you recognize what is depicted there best started to chicago or sex all right and you should have right in front of your stylist like this and a different color to see that. what i ask you to do is just for the jurors draw on the screen where you drove up and where you parked on that day. this were.

parked right here. and when you park there do you recall seeing a vehicle in front of us or do you remember what kind of vehicle that was the ferries appearance you know a color it was not. what style of car or vehicle like. it's very sweet it's a. sports truck or something. and when you pulled up there and heart. did you. see something that you your attention. not a lot of. shortly after my 2 officers was coming across the street. still coming they approached the vehicle in front of the. one officer drew a. gun and opened the door and pointed the gun whoever was in the driver's seat. so at that point in time had you gotten your foot already or not you

know the answer and so you were just sitting in your car and you see these officers pull up yes or or walk up correct and after seeing that what happened. kind of startling you know from where i'm from. what you see. it. there you don't like the past experience talk about syria actually yeah they look strong. you know what i think of charades is. you know me just i'll record ok that's exactly what i wanted to ask about right so at some point you started recording. that that was because of. basically what you saw her art. and. so. you when you were part there you started making the recording correct correct and some point you stopped the recording correct why did you stop that recording at that point we

heard more star was pulling and i didn't want to be trapped in between the whole commotion that was going on i didn't know exactly what was going on as this i didn't want to be in the middle of you know bicycle motion about was or no so i moved across the street to merge a car yes. and prior to coming into court today did we show you a copy of that video yes or did that video trillian accurately represent what you're seeing while you're recording yes or. we've marked as exhibit $35.00 you're on or off or exhibit $35.00 at this time of year 35 is received and mr balfour we're going to play that video for you now and then we'll ask you some questions about it either during or after ok ok.

so.

now when you were making that recording do you recall if your window was down in your yes sir so we were able to hear some of it on the video over you able to hear it better sitting there person there with the video she just heard most of what we've kind of hearing. i heard him actually him then you see

he's saying please something about being shot or something before please don't something like that. at that time that's when i heard the sirens for pulling them out that's when i went back up and ok. and so i'm going to go back now to exhibit one who put that up again. and yet if you would take the stylus and just kind of show the jurors where you went when you moved your vehicle. back. so for the record you're showing you moved from the dragon walk side of 30th to the cup food side of 31st. and when you got over there what did you do i continued to record and were you well you started recording again. and when you

were recording. did you have somebody in the car with you. my fiance was she was in the car couples getting the food so by the time i was trying to round she came out got the car. and so during that recording some conversations between you and her also recorded. and. and so did you start recording at that point. and prior to coming into court. did you also have a chance to review that video. and it appears to be a tonight or a copy of the actual video you made most of it now i will tell you that we have deleted the audio from this video as a conversation that you and your fiance had that important to the video. and so we have mark that is this as exhibit $36.00 and we would offer it

to. you. just. so now we'll show exhibit 36. deposit right here please and there's no time stamp on the video. so we will do our best to describe it oh there is a timestamp on the video must be approximately 26 seconds do you see that.

and. what you're seeing here you see there are 2 officers well there are now 3 officers on the scene correct. and the. 2 officers are in this view. and one of the officers is with the individual. sitting on the ground correct where the individual sitting on the ground do you recall seeing him from when you were part of the high in the stays before her who was where was that individual when you were part of your dues and the driver seat. so that's the same individual that in the video prior to you had been removed from the driver. and did you see you while you were moving the car how those 2 officers in that individual went from the mercedes in the prior video to where they are now correct how did that happen they bring

a mile walk them over to the sidewalk sat him down one officer went over to the other people those and the ago and started actually them questions. and then the other officer had the driver sit on the ground there we see you know. so that will continue to play because of the 36 please.

so exhibit 36 has ended and you stop filming at that moment. and why did you stop recording that. scared. a lot of golf this kept. records so i kind of put it down and i went to court again but i was like i really don't want any problems so i stopped

recording 'd. at that point. did you think that this incident with this individual in the officers was over. someone seeing one record and drove towards the corner as they crossed over with george the 2 officers that came in approached him in the 1st place they want to walk across the street do we want to try to go back home we've seen them placing them in the police car so that's all i've seen and. he was detained i thought it was over a couple on your 3rd to george yes or do you mean by that i felt that george was detained ok but when you use the name george the center vigil who was removed from the s.u.v. mercedes did you know that gentleman in the not at all and you subsequent to this learned who that was that george floyd yes. so you saw them moving mr floyd

after you stopped recording right. so i'm going to put exhibit one back up ways. and if you would again show the jurors you know where you saw them. well if you would just put an x on here where you were part when you made that 2nd video do you know what i mean. writing to your dragon. ok and then if you would show the jurors where you saw them walking mr floyd after you stopped recording. a. story. and so then at some point you. started up your car and drove off out of the area correct and can you show the jurors where you drove when you did

that. and so the record should reflect you turned from 38th street to go.
