how could you possibly be resting comfortably on the pavement when you die as a result of being on the pavement? i mean, i don't get the defense strategy, but then again, i never went to law school. >> laura coates, when the prosecution had the opportunity to cross-examine barry brodd, the expert called by the defense. in terms of when floyd stopped resisting and, therefore, what was justified in terms of the response. i want to play that sound and get your reaction to it. >> he's not talking, correct? >> yes. >> he's not resisting. >> doesn't appear to be, no. >> and from this point forward, the defendant remains on top of him. remains on top of him in the same position as when he started the restraining period, isn't that true? >> i'd say the same general position, not the same exact position. >> the point there, and it did go on, that testimony was that the expert in effect is arguing here, listen, this guy, floyd, could have resisted, could have pushed back. but the prosecution says, he was unconscious. how can he resist when he's unconscious. tell us how impactful that cross-exami

face down on the pavement. right on 38th and chicago in minneapolis. 9:29. 9:29. during this time, george floyd struggled. desperate to breathe, to make enough room in his chest to breathe. but the force was too much. he was trapped. he was trapped with the unyielding pavement underneath him as unjeelding as the men who held him down. pushing him. a knee to the neck. a knee to the back. twisting his fingers, holding his legs for 9:29. the defendant's weight on him. the lungs in his chest unable to expand because there wasn't enough room to breathe. george floyd tried. he pushed his bare shoulder against the pavement to lift himself to give his chest, to give his lungs enough room in his chest to breathe. but the pavement tearing into his bare skin. as he desperately pushed with his knuckles to make space so he'd have room to breathe, the pavement lacerated, lacerated his knuckles. the defendant stayed on top of him for 9:29. so bdesperate to breathe, he pushed with his face, with had is face. to lift himself. to open his chest. to give his lungs room to breathe. th

it to shreds on cross-examination, but, again, i think those things like resting comfortably on the pavement, the man died. i mean what does that do to your credibility as a witness in the eyes of a jury? i mean i just don't get it. i really don't understand the strategy. >> so, bakari, what does the jury see there? they had so many witnesses testify in the opposite from the prosecution and then you have this one guy saying day is night and night is day. what's the impact on the jury? >> i agree with chief ramsey here. this expert witness wasn't very good. he may be an expert as deemed by the credentials needed to testify in court, and i think the criminal defense attorney is going to suffer because of how bad the testimony was. there are people who go out of their way to justify everything law enforcement does. there are lots of people we're seeing right down the street, if he would have complied, things would be difference and they take the light off of the officer's actions. this expert witness, i'm not sure, was good for even getting those people on your side, but the caveat, john, like

. >> and as applied here, on a hard surface, on the pavement. correct? >> yes. >> and so if we're talking about that as the prone -- you're calling it a prone control? >> yes. >> can i use it interchangeably with prone restraint? i'll refer to it as a prone restraint. mr. floyd is face down, handcuffed behind the back, correct? >> yes. >> and at some point, the defendant is on top of him. is that right? >> i think he had his knee on him. i'm not sure if i would describe that as being on top of him. >> if i may publish to the witness exhibit 17. as shown here in exhibit 17, you're able to see the exhibit. is that right? >> yes. >> all right. and you see that the defendant has his knee on top of mr. floyd, that correct? >> i see the knee in the top area. >> is it on his -- >> top, bottom, side? >> upper spine and neck area. >> is the upper spine then on the top? >> okay. we can use top. >> okay. you would agree with me then? >> yes. >> the defendant is on top of mr. floyd? >> his knee is on top of mr. floyd. >> and you can't see where his other knee is in t

care specialist dr martin tobin testified floyd died from a lack of oxygen while being pinned to the pavement with a knee on his neck now the trial of the former police officer derrick jovan was shown animations of him and 2 other officers holding floyd done during the arrest. and it's because of the positioning of the handcuffs at the back there and how he's manipulated with the handcuffs by both the officer sharpen and by officer king how they manipulate the handcuffs and they're pushing the handcuffs into his back and pushing them high then on the other side you have the street so the street is playing a crucial part because he's against a hard ass false 3 so the way they're pushing down on his handcuffs combined with the street his left side and it's particularly the left side we see that it's like the left side is in a vise it's totally being pushed in squeezed in from each side. zeros correspondent john hendren joins us live from minneapolis john hi there what else did the experts testify today have to say. well peter it was day 9 in the murder trial of derek chauvin and it was a red le

talk about george floyd on the pavement resting comfortably, let's take a look at this. >> what part of this is not compliant? >> i see his arm position in the picture that's posted. >> right. >> a compliant person have both of their hand in their back resting comfortably. >> did you say resting comfortably in the pavement? >> yes. >> when he's attempting to breathe by shoving the shoulders into the pavement. so attempting to breathe while being uncompliant? >> no. >> no. >> jerry, i want to go to you on this one because steve won't brag about it i am sure. it is one of those moments where you don't know that word is, you don't know that phrase is coming and it comes. jerry, you watched steve jumped on it and handled it and it worked. the jury interviewed exactly the way it appeared to. >> no, absolutely. i thought it was the one exchange that was essentially the indictment. the symbolic indictment in terms of his credibility that displayed that level of frankly insensitivity. >> that was outrageous testimony. starting off with the premise that this was not a use of force. it was outr

it's the pavement. it's the positioning of how -- of hand. it's the knee on -- i was surprised the knee directly on the neck when his face was down was actually a better position because there was a ligament -- these types of things i've never even considered in the many times we've looked at the videos of george floyd's death. i was -- >> manipulation of handcuffs. >> exactly, chief. it is really saddening that knuckle on the tire, i can't get that image out of my head, laura. >> no. i mean, i -- i actually had to pause and rewind for a second. i thought did i hear that correctly? that he was reduced to having to use his knuckles, his finger, his shoulder eventually. i found myself trying to manipulate my own body to try to follow along. >> me too. >> that's exactly what you want to happen as a prosecutor. you want these jurors to be so enthralled that they're trying to put themselves into the position that no one wants to be in. which is into the body of somebody who has died at the hands by these officers. but also, up until now, the defen

was desperately trying to make space to breathe, pushing his shoulder, pushing his face against the pavement to lift up to give space to breathe. his lung capacity based on dr. tobin's calculation had just been in the prone position, even though you heard some studies from the defense saying, you know, prone position is not dangerous. dr. tobin disagreed. he said that lung capacity dr. tobin's opinion corroborates the police training and what the police have known for 30 years. the danger, the worst thing that can happen is death. and it wasn't just the lungs. the pressing up against the neck. remember when you touch that. it reduced the capacity of air flow such that it was as if mr. floyd was breathing through a straw. right? shallow breaths. did not produce enough oxygen. not enough oxygen could get to the lungs. and that's what killed george floyd. here's what didn't. here's what didn't. this wasn't a sudden cardiac arrythmia. right? dr. thomas, dr. smock, dr. tobin agreed, no the a sudden cardiac arrythmia. that's not how this looks. he found there was nothing on his -- in his review, n

you were trying to keep his head from slamming into the pavement. why is that? >> because he was limp i guess would be the best description. he wasn't responsive and holding his head up or anything. >> you were trying to protect his head. >> yes. >> so, what happened next? we saw the initial club with mre ambulance. did an officer come with you? >> yes. >> and what was the purpose of that? >> to do chest compressions for us. >> and was part of that the reason you described having you need more people to work on a patient in this kind of situation? >> yes. so what did you do at that point in time? >> you can see the video, my partner and i had a brief discussion that we were going to move a couple of blocks away. >> and is that the reason that you described earlier? >> yes. >> did you ultimately go to another location? >> we went to the front and drove the ambulance and drove to 36 and park. >> okay. and i'm going to show just you, not the jury -- and of course that has not yet been admitted, but if we could just put exhibit 73 on the screen, please. you should se

witnesses barry broad who claims to be an expert and police tactics talked about george floyd on the pavement resting comfortably. let's take a look at that. >> what part of this is not compliant? i see his arm position, and it's a compliant person would have their hands on the small of their back in with just be resting comfortably versus he is still moving around. >> did you say resting comfortably? >> or laying comfortably. >> resting comfortably on the pavement? >> yes. >> at this point in time, when he is attempting to breathe by shoving his shoulder into the pavement. >> i was describing what the signs of a perfectly compliant person would be. >> so attempting to breathe while restrained is being slightly noncompliant? >> no. >> no. >> jerry, i want to go to you on this one because steve won't brag about it i'm sure but it's one of those moments where you don't know that word is coming you watched steve jump on it, handle it and it worked on the jury according to this one juror interview exactly the way it appeared to. >> no absolutely, i thought it was the one exchange that was essenti

yes. >> at this point in time, he's attempting to breathe while he's shoving his shoulder into the pavement. attempting to breathe while restrained is being slightly noncompliant? >> no. >> no. >> professor, that's the kind of moment you were talking about, where the defense witness then ends up complying with prosecution cross-examination, if we can refer to it that way. >> absolutely. the prosecution on cross there, that was effective. he capitalized, or jumped on what this witness stated. resting comfortably, you can't let that pass by. didn't get excited about it. but was able to follow up with questions. and get the witness to really think about what he was saying. and this is quite a contrast to what we saw last week. the witnesses were prepared, and they were thoughtful about their responses. and as a matter of fact, the defense was unable to get them to walk back their responses. it's just the quality of the witness the defense had. some of the statements were somewhat laughable. marq touched on, there were many who stated that the prosecution's case last week was overkill. however,

the knees pushing on his neck and back down ward, the force of the pavement being unyielding, it was xygen to get to the lungs. and that is what killed george floyd. here�*s what didn�*t, right? this wasn�*t a sudden cardiac arrhythmia. the doctors agreed, not a sudden cardiac arrhythmia. that is not how this looks. dr baker, no med medical evidence of a heart attack. we heard from dr rich, he treats people who have heart attacks. he found there was nothing on his, in his review, nothing in george floyd�*s heart to suggest that death originated from the heart. nothing. you know, over the heart. nothing. you know, over the course of this case you heard a lot of things that didn�*t happen. and hypotheticals that don�*t apply. you know why george floyd died. you know how he died. you heard a lot about drugs, you heard about his struggle with addiction, there is some things that george floyd was obviously not a perfect man, who is? no one is. so you heard about drugs, you heard about some pills in the car. in the squad car. in his car. you heard questions about is he chewing gum, does he

you saw that witness saying resting comfortably on the pavement what effect does that have does thatse doubt or does that cause a head shake? >> i think it depends in which jurors we're talking about, shep i think it drives a wedge straight through the jury panel, if there is one to be driven, because the people that appeal to have already had their minds made up. that's one rule i'd generally say is true in a courtroom you don't change people's mind, you appeal to something they already believe in you have to believe george floyd had it coming to be persuaded by that testimony. >> the defense definitely dug deeper into george floyd's past today. it's a strategy, you know, some would employ it, some wouldn't did it work? >> again, i think it only worked with people who already find that persuasive. i find digging into the past to be deeply offensive because we recognize in other contexts that that's wrong if someone's sexually assaulted, their sexual history is irrelevant to whether or not they're harmed the same is true of george floyd. they said it relates to cause of death, but th

justified while suggesting that floyd was resisting because he wasn't, quote, resting comfortably on the pavement. so many questions about that testimony that we'll get to today. let's begin this hour with adrian broaddus. she joins us live in minneapolis with the top store in brooklyn center. good morning, adrienne. >> good morning. last night we saw another night of unrest. the third night of protests following the shooting and killing of daunte wright. out here in front of the brooklyn center police department, debris is everywhere, including bags of medical supplies. this case is moving swift. that's something some of the protesters are pleased with. we could learn later today if the officer who fired that shot that killed the 20-year-old father will be charged. yesterday she submitted her resignation letter to the city of brooklyn center, but the mayor told me he's not accepting her resignation and protesters said a resignation is not enough. that's part of the reason they took the street well beyond the curfew yesterday. at least 60 people were arrested. and prior to the demonstration we sa
