Witness initially assumed it was a take down!!
 
  • #463
Witness a few other times dispatchers have called me
 
  • #464
Ex 75

Is a call I think to witness

ETA. Was DC to witness

Asked if his camera on or off policy is to shut it off
 
  • #465
Believe he told me they had tried to put GF in car and he become combative. He mentioned a bloody mouth or lip and he has suffered a medical emergency and an ambulance was called. I headed to scene
 
  • #466
Did he say he used restraint

Witness: I don’t think so

Is the placement of a knee on a neck a reportable thing

Witness: No, not always.

How long

Witness: Until you get control and handcuffed and the person is no longer fighting

At that point the restraints should stop

Witness yes

I just got another gem for my timeline (Promise I'll update with references over the weekend as they are so great to have that other have done on other cases)

It will be inclusive.

Anywhoo, I just caught the time stamp on the audio of the call on the WaPo livestream that dispatcher Scurry made to the Sgt.

The timestamp of her call said in an automated voice at the beginning and end... at end it was 20:31:33. Which was within one minutes of the ambulance leaving CUP foods.

Witness enables his camera about 2 blocks out. Thinks he will need to do a force review
 
  • #470
Witness didn’t have any idea how long the restraint lasted for upon arriving

He secured scene on arrival

Where the 4 officers in a group when you had this conversation

Witness yes

This is really important testimony.

Surely the last question has to be "in your expert opinion, was this an excessive/unreasonable use of force? "

Pleoger says based on that call ,"I called officer Chauvin on his cell phone".

Schleicher plays Chauvin's body camera footage, where you can hear Chauvin speak to someone & say he was just going to call Pleoger ".. and have you come out to our scene here .."

Schleicher asks Pleoger to explain what they talked about during the rest of the call.

Schleicher, "Did he mention anything about putting his knee on Mr. Floyd's neck or back?

Pleoger, "No".

Pleoger says after the call he headed down to 38th and Chicago, "... there might've been an EMS vehicle on the scene and a few people milling around"

Schleicher asks about this call, this photo is from Pleoger's body camera footage.

Pleoger, "I think [Chauvin] just called, asked where I was at ... I was real close so I said I'll be right there, we'll talk in person."

Schleicher, "Based on the description the defendant gave you ... did you get any sense from the defendant how long this restraint lasted?"

Pleoger, "No, I didn't have any idea"

Pleoger says he talked to Lane and Kueng on scene.

Schleicher, "Based on that conversation, were you told there had been a restraint of an individual?"

Pleoger,"Yes, I believe they said they handcuffed him".

Officer Lane and Kueng told Sgt. Pleoger their rendition of what happened.

After that, Pleoger went down to HCMC to check on Floyd's condition.

He told officers Lane and Kueng to gather witnesses at 38th and Chicago

In one clip -- Sgt. Pleoger told Chauvin to find witnesses -- and Chauvin said he could try, but they were "pretty hostile."
