They’re just trying to live. And so that’s what you have in this situation. All these natural responses to either pain or lack of oxygen that you see from George Floyd, or those types of responses that naturally occur within the human body, are reactionary.
When he got out of that car [and] after he got out of that car, I didn’t see a man resisting. I saw a man trying to compensate for not getting enough air into his lungs at best, and he’s handcuffed. I also saw, based upon the testimony, that even though he was in handcuffs, they use more pain compliance techniques. They wanted him to be quiet. They didn’t want him to protest so that everyone would continue to look at what’s going on.
What do you predict will be the outcome of this case?
I just want the American people under the sound of my voice just to hold tight. A conviction is coming. I expect a conviction to come in this case. However, we have to go through the trial process. And quite frankly, we wouldn’t want it any other way. I am impressed with the prosecution.
