‘It wasn’t right’: Witness confronts policeman over Floyd death
Al Jazeera
18-year-old Danielle Frazier, who filmed the video of Floyd’s last moments gives evidence on second day of police officer’s trial.
The 18-year-old who took the viral video of George Floyd’s death on Tuesday told the US trial of the white police officer charged with killing the 46-year-old Black man that she knew at the time “it wasn’t right”. Darnella Frazier was among the witnesses who gave emotional testimony at the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin. Frazier, who said she suffers from social anxiety and who has declined virtually all interview requests in the 10 months since Floyd died, testified that the sight of him on the ground compelled her to stay: “It wasn’t right. He was suffering. He was in pain.”
