Good
afternoon
I
am
attorney
ben
crump,
along
with
attorney
chris
stewart
attorney
tony
romanucci
attorney,
jester
miller,
attorney
scott
madison
matt
matheson
attorney
michelle
garneau
attorney
jeff,
storms
attorney
bavani,
and
I'm
just
attorney
madeline
simmons
and
a
great
team
of
lawyers
on
our
team.
We
are
honored
to
stand
here
with
the
family
of
george
floyd,
his
brothers
and
sisters,
his
children,
all
his
family,
his
daughter
gianna.
C
C
C
C
C
C
C
C
C
It
is
my
great
honor
to
announce
that
george
floyd's
family,
our
legal
team
and
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
its
leaders
have
settled
the
civil
lawsuit
in
the
death
of
george
floyd.
The
settlement
is
not
just
historic
because
of
the
27
million
dollars
paid
out,
but
for
the
impact
on
social
justice
policy
reforms
and
police
reforms,
because
the
financial
compensation
most
directly
impact
george
floyd
and
his
family,
the
future
of
their
family.
C
C
C
I
look
at
philonus
and
brandon
and
rodney,
and
I'm
thinking
of
bridgette
and
zsa,
as
well
as
latonya,
especially
gianna
and
their
other
loved
ones,
and
I
think
about
george
floyd
and
I
pray
for
them
on
this
journey
for
justice.
As
I
implore
you
all
to
pray
for
them,
I
mean
it's
going
to
be
a
long
journey,
a
long
journey
to
justice.
C
C
C
Over
50
million
people
have
clicked
to
watch
that
video,
and
once
you
see
that
video
you
can
never
unsee
that
video
and
that's
why
george
floyd
is
changing
the
world,
because
we
know
america
we're
better
than
this.
We
know
america
that
we're
more
just
in
this.
We
know
america
that
we're
more
humane
than
this.
C
C
And
so
nothing
will
ever
wipe
out
the
flora's
family
aching
loss,
but
this
settlement
and
the
respect
that
shows
the
family
will
allow
healing
to
begin
councilwork,
president
bender.
It
will
help
to
heal
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
the
minds
and
hearts
of
black
and
white
people
who
still
suffer
anxiety
and
nightmares
and
post-traumatic
stress
from
watching
the
eight
minutes
and
46
seconds
of
george
floyd
torches
and
killed
at
the
hands
of
those
who
were
supposed
to
protect
and
serve
them.
C
C
As
you
were
here
more
than
a
minute.
This
city
has
already
enacted
some
very
profound
model:
police
reforms.
In
the
wake
of
george
floyd's
death,
our
legal
team
is
committed
to
support
the
city
and
pushing
through
additional
reforms
mayor
frye,
to
ensure
that
they
can
hold
officers
accountable
for
bad
conduct
and
never
let
a
union
contract
forced
him
into
having
to
tolerate
bad
policing.
C
C
We
hope
the
example
that
you
all
are
sitting
here
in
minneapolis
will
inspire
and
embolden
the
united
states
senate
to
join
their
colleagues
in
the
united
states
house
of
representatives
led
by
the
congressional
black
caucus
in
passing
meaningful
reform
legislation
in
the
name
of
george
floyd
as
congresswoman
sheila
jackson.
Lee
reminds
us
that
george
floyd
justice
and
policing
act
because,
like
the
activists
say
his
name
in
the
halls
of
congress,
with
the
passage
of
that
legislation,
they
were
always
say.
George
floyd's
name.
C
C
At
this
time
you
will
get
to
hear
from
two
of
the
most
passionate
committed
skillful
and
are
just
skill
beyond
anything
that
you
would
imagine
in
your
local
community
but
they're,
not
just
good,
because
they
care
about
the
court
cases.
C
G
G
The
number
today
changes
evaluations
and
civil
rights
for
a
black
person
when
they
die,
because
what
you
don't
know
is
the
rigged
game
that
we
always
have
to
play
when
we
take
one
of
these
cases,
because
african-americans
are
not
valued
high
when
they
are
murdered
by
law
enforcement
in
these
cases-
and
we
are
changing
that
precedent
because,
as
we
told
you
when
we
felt
this
lawsuit
six
seven
months
ago,
we
are
here
to
support
the
actual
understanding
that
black
lives
matter.
But
you
will
start
understanding
that
black
value
matters
and
what
happens?
G
Is
that
trickles
down
to
decisions
in
the
communities
across
this
country?
When
there's
a
city
council
or
a
mayor
deciding
oh,
should
we
get
rid
of
no
knock
warrants?
Should
we
get
rid
of
chokeholds?
Do
we
want
to
change
these
policies?
They
have
27
million
reasons
now
why
they
should,
and
that
will
make
decisions
happen.
G
That
will
make
accountability
happen
because,
yes,
it's
sad
seeing
a
video
of
a
man
being
tortured
and
murdered,
but
it's
worse
having
to
write
a
check
to
take
care
of
something
that
should
have
been
prevented
in
other
cities
and
that's
why
this
is
a
blueprint,
and
this
doesn't
happen.
Often
you
don't
get
a
city
council
that
cares.
G
G
G
G
There's
been
no
bigger
joy
in
my
life,
working
with
ben
and
fighting
for
not
just
the
man,
george
floyd,
but
the
purpose
of
what
george
floyd
change
will
become
across
this
country,
increasing
policing,
making
it
better
and
understanding
the
value
that
will
be
assigned
to
african
americans
in
these
cases.
Thank
you.
H
H
I
do
want
to
thank
my
esteemed
co-counsel,
who
spoke
before
me,
my
brother
ben
crump,
chris
stewart.
I
do
want
to
take
a
special
moment
to
thank
mayor,
jacob
fry,
the
city
council.
I
want
to
acknowledge
you
now
and
again
later.
I
have
some
special
remarks
and,
of
course,
the
city
attorney
jim
router,
and
also
the
city
attorneys,
brian
carter
and
tracy
fussy
for
working
together,
and
I
want
to.
I
want
to
bring
you
back
just
for
a
moment
now
to
may
24th
george
had
no
idea.
B
H
H
H
H
This
case
has
been
said
as
a
watershed
event
for
civil
rights
in
america
and
around
the
world,
and
it
does
it
does.
I
can
tell
you
that
the
feeling
does
feel
that
this
is
a
turning
point
for
police
reform
and
changes,
but
that's
only
because
only
because
there
were
conscious
choices
that
were
made
to
do
so,
because
this
wasn't
just
or
will
be
a
check.
That's
written,
there's
a
lot
more
behind
that
and
that's
what
you
have
to
appreciate.
H
H
H
Needless
and
preventable
preventable
serious
injury,
it's
a
call
for
lawmakers
all
over
the
country
and
especially
in
the
united
states
senate,
as
ben
pointed
out,
they
must
pass.
They
must
vote
to
pass.
The
george
floyd
police
and
reform
act.
We
know
that
the
president
will
sign
it
once
it
gets
to
his
desk.
H
What
a
beautiful
thing
you
think
of
the
memorial
that
is
born
out
of
tragic
death
if
we
can
have
permanent
federal
changes,
not
only
local
changes
because
of
those
last
two
words
that
were
uttered
mama
mama
when
somebody
says
they
can't
breathe.
What
is
it
about
that
statement?
That
should
not
be
believed
when
someone
is
kneeling
on
someone's
neck
and
they
say
I
can't
breathe
that
knee
should
be
taken
off
with
this
settlement.
H
The
community
of
38th
in
chicago
the
citizens
of
minneapolis
have
felt
some
of
that
pressure.
Relieved
their
knee.
There
is
no
knee
on
their
neck,
but
there
will
always
be
at
some
level
a
knee
on
the
neck
of
this
family
and
for
what
they
have
to
go
through,
and
that's
where
the
money
part
comes
in
to
try
and
bridge
that
gap,
but
it
won't
it
won't
until
they
know
that
there
will
not
be
another.
One
of
these
that
happen.
H
I
can
tell
you
now
from
a
factual
basis,
and
this
is
so
important-
listen
to
some
of
the
great
things
that
the
city
of
minneapolis
has
done
that
are
implemented
right
now
to
prevent
what
we
saw
in
that
videotape
already.
The
city
has
modified
its
use
of
force
policies
so
that
any
hands
that
ever
wind
up
on
a
subject
from
a
police
officer
must
be
reported.
H
H
H
H
You
got
to
give
the
power
of
discipline
to
those
police
chiefs
that,
when
they
know
something
bad
happens,
that
they
can
take
that
action
and
if
we
can
pass
that
bill,
which
I
understand
needs
state
passage
that
legislation
think
of
how
great
it
would
be
to
name
that
for
george
floyd,
we
will
also
be
working
with
the
city
of
minneapolis
on
establishing
a
use
of
force
panel
to
review
all
instances
of
use
of
force.
So
if
hands
go
on,
somebody
well
somebody's
got
to
review
whether
or
not
that
was
reasonable,
whether
it
was
necessary.
H
But
we're
not
done
because
we
did
talk
about
that
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
that
the
family
has
committed
to
38th
in
chicago
now,
what
we're
going
to
do,
minneapolis
and
minnesota
is
listening.
We
are
challenging
the
corporations
of
this
state
and
of
this
city
to
match
those
five
hundred
thousand
dollars.
H
H
H
So,
as
I
wrap
up
my
my
remarks,
I
want
to
go
back
to
those
may
days
and
that
day
that
I
remember
being
on
the
phone
with
the
family
and
mayor
frye,
and
it's
you're
going
to
think
it's
easy
for
me
to
say
this
right
now,
but
I
can
tell
you
I
was
a
listener
on
that
call.
That
day
when
mayor
frye
was
talking
to
the
family,
then
I
told
this
to
mayor
frye
today.
H
C
I
There
are
certain
events
like
that
in
world
history.
That
seemed
to
suspend
time
where
the
world
stopped,
and
those
moments
tend
to
stick
with
us,
and
our
black
community
has
endured
deep
and
compounding
trauma
over
this
last
year,
none
perhaps
more
acutely
than
george
floyd's
family
standing
with
me
right
now.
I
It
is
their
work.
That
is
honoring
the
the
collective
legacy
and
honoring
their
brother,
their
son,
their
father
and
amid
unprecedented
loss
amid
unprecedented
pain.
We
now
have
a
once
in
a
generation
opportunity
to
truly
effectuate
change,
change
that
has
eluded
policymakers
activists
advocates
community
members
for
far
too
long,
some
of
those
laws
and
policies
on
our
books.
Today,
yes,
they
were
built
and
put
into
place
with
good
intention,
but
the
passage
of
time
has
caused
them
to
be
calcified.
I
I
I
also
have
to
acknowledge
ben
tony
and
chris
and
the
entire
legal
team,
who
also
put
in
massive
and
painstaking
work
to
make
today
possible.
I
know
they
are
resolute
in
their
determination
to
see
justice.
I
know
they
are
resolute
in
their
dedication
to
see
long-term
and
lasting
impact,
not
just
in
minneapolis
but
nationwide.
I
They
reached
out
to
dig
in
and
discuss
the
reforms
that
have
taken
place.
They
did
not
stop
with
a
settlement.
They
did
not
flinch
when
we
raise
big
solutions
for
big
challenges
and
we'll
be
so
grateful
to
count
them
as
partners
in
this
very
important
reform.
Work
that
lies
ahead,
and
so
today's
settlement
reflects
our
shared
commitment
to
advancing
racial
justice,
our
command,
our
sustained
push
for
progress,
our
commitment
to
minneapolis
and
our
commitment
and
compassion
to
one
another.
I
C
Mr
mayor,
thank
you
for
your
eloquent
words,
but,
more
importantly,
thank
you
for
your
actions
to
you
and
all
the
city
leadership
I'll,
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
acknowledge
the
other
family
members
of
george
floyd.
His
sister
bridget
was
here
earlier
this
week,
had
a
death
in
the
family
of
her
uncle
in
north
carolina
that
she
had
to
be
present
his
brother,
terence,
his
sisters
again
latanya
and
jaja.
C
His
older
sisters,
who
helped
raise
him
along
with
their
mother
and
father
and
as
philonus
and
brandon
and
rodney,
will
tell
you
all,
grew
up
in
a
little
small
home
with
not
much
more
than
love
in
a
place
called
cuny
homes,
houston,
and
so
at
this
time
you
were
here
for
philonous
floyd.
First,
the
brother
of
george.
C
J
Thank
you
all
so
much
while
I'm
relieved
that
the
settlement
has
been
taken.
Care
of
I'd
like
to
thank
the
minnesota
I'd
like
to
thank
our
legal
team
for
standing
with
us
throughout
all
times,
especially
being
ben,
has
been
here
with
us
for
so
long
throughout
the
times
that
I
needed
to
speak
with
him
at
night
about
my
brother
about
different
things.
J
Him
I
know
that
he's
with
us
and
he's
standing
up
right
now,
knowing
that
we
have
the
opportunity
to
be
able
to
fund
low-income
african-american
communities
and
that's
big
in
our
heart.
As
my
family
stand
here,
because
we
are
a
product
of
our
environments,
we
come
from
low
income,
we
come
from
the
cuny
homes.
J
We
are
big
family,
I'm
a
miss,
my
brother,
the
world.
He
has
made
a
movement
and
everybody
is
standing
with
us
in
solidarity,
and
I
want
to
be
able
to
thank
all
the
supporters
all
the
protesters
for
standing,
especially
doing
a
pandemic
where
you
didn't
have
to.
Yes,
you
put
your
lives
on
the
line,
there's
nothing.
I
can
do
to
be
able
to
repay
you
for
that,
because
you
show
who
you
are
and
who
you
were
at
that
time.
So.
J
One
thing
that
the
world
needs
to
know:
america:
we
need
to
heal
this
nation
needs
healing
our
family
needs
healing
it
been
times
where
I
had
to
go
and
see
my
brother
because
he
had
tears
pouring
out
his
eyes.
Thinking
about
our
brother,
so
everybody
around
this
world
who
have
marched
with
us
on
the
front
line
or
on
the
couch
it
doesn't
matter.
Your
heart
was
in
a
good
place,
and
I
like
to
thank
everyone
for
that.
Thank
you
all.
So
much
may
george
live
in.
E
C
F
You
know
we
would
like
to
thank
the
state
of
minneapolis
the
protesters
that's
been
here
since
day.
One
and
love
to
thank
the
mayor.
Frye
would
like
to
thank
the
councilmen
and
women
of
minnesota
for
passing
this
judgment,
but
this
is
a
small
big
step
in
the
joys
floor
legacy
and
thank
you
all
very
much
for
supporting
us
and
we're
going
to
oppose
legacy
speaking
his
name
and
thank
you
guys
for
everything.
D
D
All
of
our
attorneys
for
all
of
the
fighting
and
the
hard
work
that
you
guys
put
in
and
also
the
bend
was
always
a
phone
call
away,
no
matter
if
it's
late
at
night
or
early
in
the
morning
he's
always
there-
and
I
appreciate
it-
I
know
he's
a
busy
man
and
he
takes
the
time
out
to
be
there.
So
we
appreciate
you,
man.
D
D
I
think
that
I
speak
for
myself
and
my
family
when
I
say
that
we
give
the
settlement
back
gladly
to
have
george
still
here
with
us.
No
amount
of
money
can
cure
this
pain.
This
heartache,
no
amount
of
money
you
know,
can
bring
him
back
to
be
here
for
his
children.
You
know
to
make
memories
and
watch
them
grow.
C
Council,
woman,
council
president
and
mr
mayor,
we
gotta,
stand
up
for
this.
If
y'all,
don't,
I
think
it's
important
y'all
that
we
just
take
a
moment.
You
heard
this
family
pour
out
their
heart
and
they
did
so
in
a
real
way,
because
it's
even
though
this
is
a
moment
to
be
celebrated
still
every
day
they
wake
up
and
they
think
about
george
and
the
manner
he
was
taken.
C
So
all
we're
trying
to
do
is
hold
people
accountable,
and
so
I'm
grateful
that
the
city
is
committed
to
making
sure,
there's
accountability
and
trying
to
prevent
another
family
from
going
through
what
george
went
through,
I
know
attorney
stewart
talked
about.
You
know,
you
think
you
have
policy
where
it
won't
happen
again,
but
we
gotta
really
commit.
C
I
Thank
you,
mr
crump,
and
thank
you
to
the
family
for
those
incredibly
powerful
words
like
to
thank
our
our
city,
council
and
and
have
council
president
bender
up.
Thank
you,
council.
Vice
president
jenkins
and
council
member
ellison
as
well,
and
I'll
note
that,
in
fact,
the
vote
today
was
a
unanimous
one.
Council
president.
K
K
We
talk
about
mr
floyd
all
the
time
in
our
house,
mr
george,
we
say
and
we
talk
about
what
happened,
and
we
talk
about
our
responsibility
to
step
up
in
our
family,
and
you
know
what
I
just
want
you
to
know
how
deeply
we're
with
you.
We
are
with
you
to
go
to
the
senate
to
fight
for
change.
We
are
with
you
to
support
our
mayor
in
chief
in
implementing
reform.
We
are
with
you
to
reshape
safety
in
minneapolis.
L
B
You
thank
you,
president
bender,
and.
B
M
Of
you
that
are
standing
on
stage
with
me
today,
as
we
make
this
historic
announcement.
My
name
is
andrea
jenkins,
I'm
the
vice
president
of
the
minneapolis
city
council,
and
I
I
can't
start
my
my
comments
without
just
offering
my
my
deep
condolences
to
all
the
family
members
that
are
here
on
stage
with
us
all
the
the
members
of
the
floyd
family,
that
you
mentioned
being
that
aren't
able
to
be
here
with
us
in
this
room,
but
are
absolutely
here
with
us
in
spirit.
M
I
know
firsthand
about
that
trauma
and
pain
of
losing
a
loved
one
while
in
the
custody
of
the
police.
My
first
cousin
that
my
mother
raised
as
her
son,
my
little
brother.
M
M
M
We
tried
to
get
a
lawyer
to
help
us
out.
Nobody
would
take
the
case.
He
had
drugs,
he
swallowed
those
drugs
in
police
custody
and
he
died.
Nobody
would
take.
Nobody
would
take
his
case
too
many
families
too
many
black
and
brown
mothers
and
sisters
and
cousins
and
brothers
know
the
same
pain
that
your
family
is
doing.
M
M
M
M
M
Thank
you
so
much
as
this
trial
progresses,
I
do
want
to
call
for
peace.
I
want
to
echo
what
attorney
van
crump
said
that
you
know
george
floyd
called
for
peace
when
mike
brown
was
killed.
M
C
You
know,
council
president
bender
says
something
I
asked
her
and
philonous
and
mayor
frye
and
just
to
step
up
for
a
second,
if
you
would,
because
you
do
want
to
chris,
give
an
example
to
those
in
the
united
states
senate
that
we're
better
than
this,
and
that
there
are
more
things
that
bring
us
together
than
to
separate
us,
so
if
we
could
just
join
hands
for
a
second,
this
is
about
george.
C
I
I,
if
jim
router,
who
has
just
been
dogmatic
and
trying
to
work
to
resolution
attorney
steward
attorney,
roman
we're
gonna
start
the
q
a
and
hopefully
one
of
us
attorneys,
can
answer
your
questions
or
direct
you
to
the
people
who
can
so
jim.
You
want
to
say
anything
before
we
start
the
q,
a.
N
No,
I'm
just
grateful
and
honored
to
be
able
to
be
with
everybody
here
today,
and
certainly
all
the
work
that
I've
got
to
experience
with
with
ben
crump.
Here
it's
been
just
transformation.
C
Transformation
so
we're
opening
it
up
for
q,
a
and
jim
to
you
and
your
entire
staff.
As
tony
ramonuchi
said,
this
doesn't
happen
unless
people
are
committed
to
transformational
change
from
transformational
pain,.
O
C
And
I
will
say
this:
I
know
the
family
has
said
that
they're
going
to
give
back,
and
that
was
the
family's
decision
that
they
want
to
be
part
of
the
solution,
and
I
think
that's
what
the
city
leadership
is
saying.
They
want
to
be
a
part
of
the
solution.
Now
we
don't
have
all
the
answers,
but
we
believe
together
we
can
solve
all
the
problems.
L
P
C
I
can
take
that
question.
Yes,
sir,
and
I
don't
know
if
attorney
stewart
or
attorney
ramanuchi
we
want
to
chime
in
because
we
do
this
type
of
work
all
across
the
country.
The
one
thing
we
know
as
black
people
in
america
that
there
is
no
guarantee
that
a
police
officer
will
be
convicted
for
killing
a
black
person
unjustly
in
our
country.
C
G
Yeah
it'll,
actually
in
these
situations
it
can
actually
help
the
process
move
smoother
without
the
civil
case
going.
I
could
file
something
tomorrow
in
the
civil
case
and
you
all
find
out
all
kind
of
information
that
could
impact
the
picking
of
this
jury,
the
actual
criminal
trial,
but
now
that
that's
over
none
of
that
type
of
information
will
be
hindering
the
criminal
trial
anyway,
and
so
far
all
of
us
have
been
watching
like
hawks
this
process,
the
judge
is
doing
a
great
job.
G
The
lawyers
are
doing
a
phenomenal
job
of
figuring
out
bias,
any
views
they
have.
You
know
this
civil
case
doesn't
have
anything
to
do
with
it.
O
Why
couldn't
this
wait?
Till
after
the
trial
concluded.
G
Well,
justice
really
doesn't
really
wait,
it
happens
when
it
happens
and
it
happened
today.
You
know
we're
not
gonna
delay
justice
because
we're
worried
about
the
outcome
of
a
criminal
trial
that
we
all
pray.
You
know
what
what
outcome
we
want.
Q
I
I
I'll
start
out
by
saying
I'm
so
sorry
I
I
can
hear
the
pain
in
your
voice.
Just
in
that
question
alone,
there
are
a
number
of
reforms
that
have
been
instituted.
I
don't
think
there
are
there's
any
mayor
in
the
country,
any
city
council
in
the
country
that
doesn't
wish
that
they
had
asked
acted,
faster
and
more
diligently.
I
P
How
the
city
pays
for
this
settlement?
We
talked
about
a
couple
years
ago
with
the
damon
settlement:
20
million
a
once
a
decade
settlement
an
hour,
27
million,
I'm
curious
for
property
taxpayers.
How
do
we
fund
this
settlement?
Given
the
self-insured
nature
of
the
city?
Please.
R
Good
afternoon
I'm
mark
ruff,
the
city
coordinator
for
the
city
of
minneapolis.
You
are
correct
in
the
question
around
the
city's
self-insurance
fund,
so
the
city
does
not
have
outside
insurance
for
tort
liability.
For
these
types
of
cases,
the
city's
self-insurance
fund
is
under
pressure
not
just
from
the
tort
liabilities,
but
also
from
the
workers
compensation
associated
with
many
of
our
first
responders
suffering
during
this
time.
R
So
while
our
self-insurance
fund
doesn't
have
adequate
money
right
now,
we
do
have
other
reserves
that
we
have
set
aside
for
these
types
of
liabilities,
along
with
the
liabilities
of
uncertainty,
is
how
quickly
we
come
out
of
this
recession,
but
at
this
time
we
feel
that
it
is.
We
can
confidently
say
assuming
that
trends
continue
as
they
are,
that
this
settlement
alone
will
not
result
in
property
taxes
increasing
because
of
the
because
of
that
judicious
nature
of
saving
the
money.
That's
necessary
to
follow
all
of
the
liabilities
that
come
out
of
an
event
like.
R
H
So
the
question
was
how
that
500
000
is
going
to
be
overseen.
Well,
the
family
clearly
is
going
to
have
is
going
to
direct
how
that
money
is
going
to
be
spent
at
38th
in
chicago
we're
going
to
take
direction
from
the
city
council
and
from
its
vice
president
who's.
A
member
who
represents
that
district
and
and
certainly
it's
going
to
be
everything.
H
Every
single
dollar
will
be
accounted
for
and
will
be
transparent,
very
likely
through
a
not-for-profit
that
will
be
designated
specifically
and
solely
for
the
the
black
brown
minority
and
impoverished
area
of
38th
in
chicago
to
help
restore
their
needs
to
maybe
not
entirely
as
it
was
before
may
25th.
But
as
close
as
we
can
get.
C
S
Could
you
address,
there
seems
to
be
a
concern
in
the
black
community
that
once
this
settlement
was
announced,
there
was
a
collective
all
know.
Will
the
focus
shift
from
getting
criminal
justice
for
george
floyd
with
derek
shelby
and
the
other
officers
involved
now
that
this
historic,
significant
payout
is
over
with,
will
the
focus
shift
or
will
you
guys
continue
to
apply
pressure
to
ensure
that
there
is
a
conviction
and
a
proper
sentence
with
derek
shulman,
whose
case
is
obviously
happening
about
a
mile
away
from
here.
C
C
That's
what
our
forefathers
conceived,
that
justice
is
for
every
american
and
not
just
half
justice,
but
whole
justice,
and
the
one
thing
I
will
simply
say
is
this:
here:
we
have
all
the
faith
that
attorney
general
keith,
ellison
and
his
prosecutors
are
going
to
zealously
prosecute
this
case
with
or
without
fanfare,
because
that's
what
the
commitment
is-
and
my
hope
is-
that
the
public
sees
their
installation,
their
reinstatement
of
the
third
degree
murder
charge
as
an
example
of
their
commitment
to
give
a
jury
every
option
to
hold
derrick
sheldon
criminally
liable
for
killing
george
floyd.
C
Now
I
will
tell
you,
as
I've
said
in
many
interviews,
we
know
in
black
america.
Our
heart
has
been
broken
far
too
many
times
with
something
that
would
be
not
a
hard
decision
if
it
was
a
white
american
that
suffered
what
george
floyd
suffered,
and
we
know
the
old
playbook
they're,
going
to
assassinate
george
floyd's
character,
to
try
to
deflect
our
attention
away
from
the
facts
on
that
videotape.
C
We
got
no
form
of
justice
30
35
years
ago.
They
just
killed
black
people
and,
like
we
said
it
was
trivial
that
it
didn't
matter,
and
so
I
say
to
all
of
the
activists.
We
have
to
continue
to
protest
and
demand
justice
for
george
floyd,
but
we
do
it.
How
george
floyd
wanted
us
to
do
it
peacefully
right
philonous
I
mean
he
sent
the
tweet
out
in
ferguson
saying
we
can.
We
need
to
peacefully
protest
for
michael
brown
and
so
his
family
collectively
say
with
the
city.
C
T
C
U
Some
people
were
basically
wondering
like
do
you
all
know
something
that
we
do
not
know
as
being
right
here
in
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
why
you
all
are
spending
so
much
money
barricading
putting
by
while
you're
out
and
things
of
that
nature.
That
seems
like
it's
putting
a
world
a
nation
of
people
at
you
know
at
ease.
If
you
will.
I
Thank
you
for
the
question.
I
know
the
the
presence
of
some
of
the
bolstering
around
the
city
infrastructure
city
hall,
as
well
as
hennepin
county
government
center,
is
unsettling
to
many.
This
was
a
joint
process
worked
through
both
hennepin
county
as
well
as
the
city
and
to
be
very
clear.
We
want
to
encourage
peaceful
protesting.
We
want
to
see
people
to
express
their
first
amendment
rights
throughout
our
city.
We
view
peaceful
protesting
as
a
critical
part
of
the
healing
process
and
it's
an
essential
part
of
the
democratic
process.
I
F
V
You
thank
you
brandon,
thank
you
to
all
of
you
for
being
here
today
and
for
answering
our
questions.
My
question
goes
to
the
family,
but
it
also
goes
to
you
mayor
as
a
member
of
the
black
community
who
houses
my
office
right
on
38th
in
chicago.
I
look
out
my
window
and
I
can
see
the
memorial
of
where
george
took
his
last
breath.
My
thought
is,
and
my
question
is
what
is
the
city's
plan
and
then
what
is
the
family's
plan
on
cup
foods.
N
I
you
know
that's
an
issue
I
think
we
can
address
in
another
setting,
but
we
do
certainly
understand
the
community's
concerns
around
that
business.
We've
had
a
lot
of
conversations
internally
at
the
city
about
that,
but
to
be
respectful
for
this
day
and
why
we're
here?
I
think
it
would
be
good
if
we
can
follow
up
later
on
that,
but
thank
you.
C
And
brandon
said
we
will
welcome
your
suggestions.
They
live
in
houston,
so,
yes,
ma'am,
yes,
ma'am
do.
C
W
W
But
we
have
not
seen
that
consistency.
We
haven't
seen
that
track
record.
We
haven't
seen
a
real
commitment
to
justice
and
transforming
the
system
of
policing.
So
we
want
to
know
that,
as
you
all
are
able
to
go
back
to
your
respective
places,
we'll
still
be
here
holding
it
down.
We
love
you.
We
want
to
know
from
city
leaders,
though,
what
tangible
actions
will
you
take
next?
W
C
Thank
you
for
that
question.
I'm
going
to
defer
to
the
city,
but
we
we
welcome
you
helping
us
hold
them
accountable,
because
they're
elected
officials
and
black
people
have
to
like
so
many
of
our
other
citizens
say
no,
no.
You
have
to
be
accountable
to
us
and
I
think
a
lot
has
been
said
and
we
want
to
say
in
the
name
of
george
floyd
that
we
respectfully
follow
up.
So
I
welcome
that
question
and
any
assistance
to
work
with
these
leaders.
N
Nakima,
thank
you
for
the
question.
I
think
it's
fair
to
say.
We
all
know
that
there's
still
a
lot
of
work
ahead
and,
as
you
know,
from
some
of
the
meetings
that
my
office
has
had
with
the
racial
justice
network
that
we're
we're,
organizing
that
work,
we're
trying
to
roll
up
our
sleeves
and
get
our
hands
dirty
and
there's
a
lot
to
do
and
I'm
sure
in
the
coming
months.
N
We
can
continue
to
speak
to
what
you're
asking
for,
but
again
I
think
it's
been
a
long
day,
certainly
for
the
family,
and
we
want
to
be
respectful
because
I
know
there's
also
travel
involved
and
they
also
have
some
other
plans
that
they'd
like
to
do
before
they
leave
town
today.
So
thanks.
C
Thank
you
all
very
much
anything
else
for
longest
or
anybody.
