Minneapolis Officers Fired After Death Of Man Who Pled For Air | NBC Nightly News
Americans are raises country
RIP
I think the officers should go through the same pain George went through
Only Jesus is our hope, we people of the colour.
You owe the family an apology why are you apologizing to the black community. I don’t need a apology every officer that stood there should be in jail the one on his neck for murder and the others jail time for assistance.
They treated him like his life didnt matter all he wanted was to able to breathe he pleaded over and over.😞I really didnt understand how the emts allowed the officer to remain on top of him even after they checked his pulse they took their sweet time getting him help.
Incredible this continue happening. Police procedure was wrong and must be punish severely.
Fired only? He should be in jail. He killed him. They should’ve put cuffs on his feet instead, if they didn’t want him to escape. He murdered him.
Only fired? Why not give them 15 yrs to all 4 👮♂️👮♂️👮♂️👮♂️
NBC the truth matters why don’t you start reporting it finally starting with this one knock off the Propaganda B.S. with China… China is not for America and if you support them you are against America & We the People…. I’m a child of two legal immigrants there is absolutely no reason for open borders ever it’s just for human trafficking and gun and drugs as well FYI WAKE Up
This new “we care” white people are so cute! Lol
Anybody read the comments about that white woman who was killed in the park by those black teens?? Some of the worst racist comments ever, YOU ALL WILL NEVER FOOL ME, EVER.
You badges are nothing but punks
They murdered him. They need to be charged with murder!
Tha police was races
Why fired only?? He need justice bros
All four need to be charged with murder. Not just fired. The man was prone and in cuffs. And the other cops did nothing to stop this. Just stood around and let it happen. They need to release All the body camera footage and she it on the news in its entirety.
America, your country is revolting.
that mayor is the most genuine white mayor i ve seen…….now, for that pig derek chauvin should be on the electric chair.
WTF WAS THE POINT OF PRESSING A KNEE INTO HIS NECK FOR SO LONG!!?? Its like they murdered him on purpose. My head is f*cked up after watching this 😢
They all need to do time in prison for 25years 🤬😡 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾My prayers go out his family😩🙏🏿🙏🏿
The USA is unraveling. The “U” in USA is gone. We can call it “SA” now. Oh wait “South Africa” has it already. Oh well, same thing!
Hope all officer in this video die
This is MURDER. FIRE IS NOT ENOUGH.
If you let this slide there’s no hope for humanity in America. It’s just plain murder and trust me if anyone in this country doesn’t know about this incident it’s because they don’t have a TV or internet . So pick a jury oh good luck with that one . This is Amrican home of the brave land of the free not Russia, China or some other place where communist dictators rule and there henchmen run things . We’re all tired of rough cops doing anythin they want . Thank God for real lawinfocement but this is not it ! Our streets our country or lives or neighborhoods or community’s and most of all our families neighbors or children. Stop killing us over nothing and the man was in cuffs! How in the name of all that’s free do these men the wrong men become police officers how? And who ever hired him them should BE FIRED! Stop the madness. USA stay strong Amrica home of the free.
I HEAR THE WORD FIRED… TF FIRED THIS IS UNFAIR THE GIY DIES AND ALL THE DO IS FIRE THEM THEY SHOULD GO TO JAIL JUST LIKE ANY OTHER PERSON WHO KILLS A PERSON…MURDERERS!!!!! #justiceforfloyd
They should all go to jail
Murderer!!! That cop and his 3 other pig cops should be in jail and charged with murder! No question it was pure murder! Why aren’t they in jail right now? They shouldn’t even be given a trial. The evidence is here in plain sight!
I just wish they would show the Daniel Shavers murder and ask why no one rioted when he was gunned down in cold blood by one of these sociopaths with a badge
Wait so he still sat there on his face after he was unresponsive
The guy who killed him was actually a white supremacist
Police officers should be turtured to death rip George floyed
Holy heck!!!! I kept fartin while watching this vid.
God Bless Tessa Majors
Sucks.
Donald Trump aggravate racism!
This is where the song THIS IS AMERICA is talking about GOD will do justice 🙏
I couldn’t finish listening to that poor soul pleading for air. I’m in tears. Why did they do that to him??? Omg!!! 👮😠
警察暴力执法，没有人性，一级谋杀罪。在中国这样的事也是非常恶劣的犯罪行为。
And this is how you get away with murder. Become a officer
They need to be in jail.
The police officers should suffer it ain’t good it was really bad n this wasn’t the first time to hear a case like this
Police officer superman
Firing isnt enough……hang the murderer and imprison the rest and try them for murder bc they could have stopped it so they are guilty too………….resisting doesnt justify murder by cop ! ! !
Hang all the cops that were onlooking that wouldnt stop it…..they are guilty as the cop that did the murder…………….
I Love police and support them but they should NOT have immunity and special privileges that protect them so they can committ crime…..
Honestly that would have constituted justifiable use of deadly force against the police by any bystander….
Derek is a MURDER!!!!
How can you do this to a human being
This is sick, disturbing, and just completely wrong
This police office should go to jail………
Eufemismo do caralho dizer que o cara tava desacordado, o cara já tava morto e o verme continuou em cima do cara.
Fired for murder? Seems abit light.
sad to say that I cant say im surprised. This stuff happens all the time and its not right. RIP George Floyd.
Why wasn’t they fired right then arrested
This makes me feel enraged…. someone should of jumped in!!!!😡😡😡😤😤😤😤
My heart hurts, and my soul is crying. Who you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?
I’m not sure, but I think I saw a slight smile on his face
https://youtu.be/oyW12jkgx_o so who is this
✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
Wow the is a ………….
The worst officer i have ever seen like WHO DOES THAT TO SOME ONE THAT DID NOT DO NOTHING LIKE DOES THE OFFICER NEEDS HEPL CAUSE I THINK SOW
The mayor this man life matters everyone’s life matters homie
I can’t Breath Ma Ma ! I always cry when I replay this ! He did nothing and waiting last Oxygen
the officer is just too coward and abusive. anyway they are also trained by abusive superiors to be abusive. so disgusting.
Shame for him He is a devil
I saw the other video, did he try to run or something? He is scary looking, I can’t commit to an opinion here. What did the optopsy say? Please stop escalating Panthers the point is made and the law will prevale know one deserves to be so close to death while being arrested.
All of them should be imprisoned, this is murder
sometimes I wonder why idiots like this can become security guards? Does their office also contain idiots too?
Life for Life
Seee, what if that video had not been recorded by bystanders????? Oh my God. I skipped from Afghanistan to USA but I see worse people than f..n Taliban in here.
The cell phone camera is a more terrible tool tidy, clean justice these days. Wow, lots of murder happened without a camera in the past.
All those officers which are seen that and just Egore when Georgia was say help
All of the IDIOT’S
They think if they are officers they can do whatever they want
Really not they can’t do
I’m not surprised if they gonna shoot them after they got fire stupid officers
They call this 3rd degree murder? Hello!!!
It’s first degree murder plain and simple!!!
FREEDOM FOR FLOYD
What happened or what was the cause for George Floyd to get attention from the cops ?
I hope they all for fry
This is murder they should pay for what they did
Why did they killd him
What did he do
Martin Luther King Jr in heaven: DON’T MAKE ME DOWN THERE YOU PUNKS!
Rest in Peace
Bro I hate this get off of his neck man!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is terrible 😥
This is very painful …. justice for George flyod
😠 you see alone 1 Police man behind him are 3 more Police mans they sit on the man
He said he can’t breathe WHY DIDN’T YOU JUST LET HIM GO omfg we lost a man that could’ve saved our life i hate these man so much im crying rip george floyd
THATS IT THEY GOT FIRED THEY SHOULD OF GOT ARRESTED WTF
I hope the policemen who murdered Floyd will get the max
Trump called blacks thug nowadays police is also filled with thugs
Couldn’t they see he was unconscious? What is he gonna do while he is out? Get up and fight them? They need to be jailed for murder. I don’t care if you have a badge or not this is to much. If people in the community did this they would go straight to jail. This has got to stop. May god give us peace to this country. I hope his family gets some kind of closure for this poor victim.
So stupid police officers I hitch him 👠👠👠👠
This whole thing is absolutely fakethere is nobody standing outside the cop that was booked and looks like he’s 20 years old and is videos a man look like he’s 60
completely fake they got no video of the people standing outside whatsoever this is stage stage stage this has been booked in looks like he’s 20 years old wow people are just dumb down from all this slaughter farm food who sent out a fake EMT
NBC FAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He died there not in the hospital.
He said: “mama mama…”

Praying for the family ❤❤❤😘😘😘
Iam so mad watching this video that is capital murder
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😥
Prison sentence is not enough for these evil doers. They need to be executed the same way they ended this man’s life. ‘Whoever kills by the sword has to die by the sword’.
Murder !!!!!!!
The police officers involved must be put in jail!!!!!!! Justice for George! Give his family the true justice!!!!
