BCA Special Agent James Reyerson, lead investigator on the case just testified he heard #GeorgeFloyd say in this video that "I ate too many drugs." #DerekChauvinTrial
SA Reyerson has changed his opinion after listening to a longer clip of this body camera moment. He tells the jury, he now believes #GeorgeFloyd said, "I ain't do no drugs." NOT, "I ate too many drugs." #DerekChauvinTrial
SA Reyerson testimony is now complete. Onto the 2nd BCA witness in the case, McKenzie Anderson. She was the crime scene lead on death of #GeorgeFloyd investigation. Continued #DerekChauvinTrial coverage live right now on @FOX9.
State is taking jurors inside MPD squad 320, the vehicle #GeorgeFloyd was pulled thru by officers Lane & Kueng outside Cup Foods. Apparent pills found in the back seat. BCA Agent McKenzie Anderson testifying about finding the potential evidence months later. #DerekChauvinTrial

ON THE RECORD: #DerekChauvinTrial back in session. Quick record made about upcoming expert medical witnesses & eventual testimony of Henn Co Medical Examiner Dr Andrew Baker. Jury is seated. Our gavel-to-gavel trial coverage right here -- fox9.com/live
Dr. Martin Tobin, Chicago area Pulmonologist – Expert in how people breathe, the lungs. State retained expert. The medical evidence & testimony portion of this case is now underway. Expect a couple days worth of state witnesses. Defense will have their own. #DerekChauvinTrial Image
Interesting to point out Dr. Tobin has been an expert witness in medical malpractices cases. Both sides, medical professional as well as a patient. But this is his very 1st criminal case. He was not paid by the state. Volunteered to offer his expertise on #GeorgeFloyd death.

BACK IN SESSION: Without any formal explanation of yesterday's abrupt end, #DerekChauvinTrial is back in session. LAPD Sgt Jody Stiger resumes his testimony. If looking for a quick listen, I joined NPR's Up First podcast early this AM to discuss the case.
npr.org/2021/04/04/984…
Prosecutor Steve Schleicher having Sgt. Jody Stiger walk the jury thru video screenshots of #DerekChauvin knee on #GeorgeFloyd neck area. Says knee positioning did NOT change during the full 9 minute & 29 seconds of the restraint even after the ambulance arrived. @FOX9
Sgt. Stiger points out a "pain compliance technique" where officers squeeze a subject's hand to get compliance as #DerekChauvin is seemingly captured here with a handcuffed & prone #GeorgeFloyd. #DerekChauvinTrial

RIGHT NOW: Tune into @FOX9 for ongoing #DerekChauvinTrial coverage. Motion hearing underway for Moriess Hall, #GeorgeFloyd companion. His atty says Hall has no immunity, no protection and thus plans to invoke his 5th amendment right against self incrimination. Image
Morries Hall's attorney particularly concerned about a 3rd degree murder charge given his potential testimony about #GeorgeFloyd drug use in relation to Floyd's death. #DerekChauvinTrial
SPOTTED AT THE COURTHOUSE: Our pool reporter says on the skyway level of the Gov Center, Benjamin Crump & Rev. Al Sharpton were seen w/ some members of the Floyd family waiting for an elevator. Gwen Carr, the mother of the late Eric Garner, was also there just behind Sharpton.

Getting ready for week 2 of witness testimony in #DerekChauvinTrial. A reminder where we left off Friday w/ testimony of long-time #Mpls police Lt Richard Zimmerman. Today, expecting Chief Medaria Arradondo on the stand. He has called what happened to #GeorgeFloyd "murder."
Judge Cahill is back on the record. We are certainly lacking details. But Cahill has ruled there was "no jury misconduct" after speaking to the panel w/ audio & video shut off. So we'll figure out what that was about. But certainly some drama already this AM. #DerekChauvinTrial
State has just informed the court it has two (2) use of force experts above & beyond several officials w/ #Mpls police department. Judge Cahill expressed some frustration with that idea. Explaining at this point, it feels like piling on. #DerekChauvinTrial #GeorgeFloyd

Crystal police Lt Derrick Hacker wrapped up his state use of force testimony about 2:30pm. Questioning by defense contentious at times. But Lt. Hacker didn't budge in his conclusions -- Noor & partner Matthew Harrity made mistakes & #JustineDamond should still be alive.#NoorTrial
State now has perhaps their final witness on the stand. Former Charlottesville, VA Police Chief Timothy Longo. Longo brings police policy & administrative experience to the table. He told jury, it is the 1st time he has testified for the gov't against an officer. #NoorTrial
State expert Timothy Longo remains on stand as #Noortrial ended testimony today. He will be cross-examined by the defense tomorrow morning. Court resumes at 11am. Remember a juror has a job interview. So they are giving the juror time to take care of their business.
