Minneapolis Mayor: I Can’t Answer Why the Officer Who Killed George Floyd Is Not in Jail Right Now

‘I called for the county attorney to charge the arresting officer earlier today’

RUSH EXCERPT:

FREY: “For the last 36 or 48 hours, I’ve been asking myself that core underlying question why is the officer that killed George Floyd not in jail right now. And I can’t answer that question. And because of that, that’s why I called for the county attorney to charge the arresting officer earlier today. That’s why we need to make sure that we are seeing justice, justice for our black community, justice for George Floyd, justice for our whole city. There have been so many people who said what do we need to do to start the healing? We can’t start the healing until we stop the bleeding, and it is very real right now.”
