In an emotional response to George Floyd's family Sunday night, the Minneapolis police chief says in his mind, all four officers involved in the black man's killing bear the same responsibility.
"Mr. Floyd died in our hands and so I see that as being complicit," Chief Medaria Arradondo told CNN's Sara Sidner."Silence and inaction, you're complicit. If there was one solitary voice that would have intervened ... that's what I would have hoped for."But no one intervened Monday evening as 46-year-old Floyd begged for his life while ex-Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin remained kneeling on his neck for nearly nine minutes.
All of the Police Chiefs in these cities that allow officers to continue their crimes need to be fired and jailed as well! Starting in MPLs....who let’s an officer continue to work with multiple complaints of brutality against him!!!!
The whole police department should bear the same responsibility, from the top down to the walking beats. So the Minneapolis police chief is correct. It is systemic problem.

Good Job CNN, please keep Don Lemon covering this important issue. He has shown to be the most knowledgeable to report on this.
sunny Why no show today! We need boots on the ground! Speak it louder!
Then arrest warrant the other three dirty cops in Minnesota? Look what’s happening across the nation? Major cities are being burned and looted? Do you job!
This is America. This country is foundationally and perpetually racist and anti-Black bodies. An inescapable, ugly truth.

My thoughts EXACTLY!!
I agree, they are guilty for not doing anything to stop it and for not reporting it while it was happening. Others have been charged for not reporting a crime when they see it happening.
Absolutely
Yes, all four cops must be charged. They all should be given jail sentences and should all be required to attend a lifetime of anger management therapy. Justice for George Floyd! Don’t ever let this happen again!
That’s right police chief in Minneapolis four cops should have the same punishment! no one of them tried to stop dereck! which mean they have the same mind of killing the unarmed George Floyd!
Foolish statement when we always say we are responsible for our own actions and when we say you can’t group all whites as racist or all blacks as criminals !
That old adage 'Actions speak louder than words' most certainly applies here. Stop tiptoeing and arrest them if you mean it.
Lady trying to protect her business
When the leader doesn't care about others except for himself and racism is the last thing he would consider thinking, well than the outlaws will become the police and we face such challenges
Why is the Chief not fired, he was in charge of the Department. He is responsible.
How can a police officer kill an unarmed civilian? In broad day light and with cameras ON. Seems this officer is perhaps a pro or the whole department is pretty confident that such killings are petty and not to be accountable for. Excellent law and order management
This is nothing else than the law!
Covid-19 is a German Bio Weapon. They also did the first poison gas attack in 1. Worldwar. Now the Nazis did your Country. Its your Second Pearl Harbour
👎💀👎 Hang 👎💀👎 All Mfuckers 👎👮♂️👮♂️👮♂️👮♂️👎
The morning anchor that was on from 4:00 AM to 5:00 AM just said on live television that police officers roit gear are scary and they should not have that type of gear on when it’s a peaceful protest do you not see mobs trying to hurt police and innocent business ENOUGH division
Did Beijing publicly support US protests and give aid to radical left-wing forces, like the political infiltration Washington has done to China? You spoke as if destroying the US ideas, US democracy and US values is a piece of cake. You are humiliating the US and the West.
Five Demands Not Less! 1 Justice For Fioyd 2 Establishment of an independent cjmmission of inquiry into US police brutality 3 Retract the characterization of the protest as “riots” and release all protesters 4 Disband the US police and military 5 Donald Trump stepping down
Ok, boy that sure was a lot of fun destroying America! Ok so now we all go home and peace breaks out! Just like Jesus said. or something.
CNN has done everything in their power to divide our country. This is what they wanted. They use words that divide people, knowing that most of America are good. They focus on the few bad apples and say we all are bad apples. No, no, no!! Protest against CNN. Just say no to CNN
CNN your partly responsible for what is taking place in this in this country The hatred division and race bating you have spewed and promoted for years has fueled the burning destruction of our cities Wolf Anderson Cuomo why are you not denouncing the anti police hatred
I did not hear him say that on tape. Are you trying to strip his job and stitch him up. Speak what is said.
🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷😂☕😉
ArrestThemAllNow
CNN advertises Antifa. So dusgusting!
New york niggas fallin out the sky like cockroaches lootin 🤣
And now that the protesters are policing the rioters, change is imminent. Keep forging ahead. Good will always win.
The DA for Minneapolis has seemed very reluctant from the beginning of this case to bring charges against any of the officers involved in Mr. Floyd's murder. WHY? There is no good reason for reluctance here. It's all on tape.
💔😰i am heartbroken 😰Icantbreath
Good we ask for more
It’s the culture of uniform vs animal
Indeed
Not reported inCNN, because it don't fit your political agenda, just a couple of white people.
Clean your house, chief.
Take his fucking badge too!!!
Charged with manslaughter 🙆🏽♂️
DEATH PENALTY
It wasn’t ( wrong ) it was a crime One good word and a bit of justice could have solved it ,,, but ,,,, it’s
Get out of here with that police chief. Then arrest them!!! Stop arresting and abusing the protesters.
So what’s the hold up in arresting the others? The DA has the video....enough evidence for 1st degree murder!
the Minneapolis police chief says in his mind? The police chief needs to get out his mind and stop speculating. You know the law and it has nothing to do with you being out of your mind.
Is there a language expert here, is it correct what they wrote? It kind of makes me think he said it only in his mind. Anyway, of course the 4 of them are guilty. Maybe to a different degree, but you know, I’m not an expert.
I think the protesters will be satisfied if the officers involved are brought out on Minnesota street where George Floyd was killed and have them executed in the street and have it live-streamed and broadcast in broad daylight. Perhaps this will calm the protesters down.
then arrest them piggy
THEN CHARGE THEM ALL WITH FIRST DEGREE MURDER
Alright what about the officers assaulting protesters? Are they gonna get their dues?
Also he deserve to be fired and prosecuted for his responsibility as a head of the police department !
Yep. Then do something & talk to the DA. its it's obvious those other 3 need to be arrested & charged!
Get off my twitter.
Should be a law. Roits . Stealing, and killing is wrong.
NOW HE IS MY MAN
Never recovered from this label by CNN. INSULT to Africa and 🇰🇪. We understand the label better now,,,, that's how you view us.
But have you arrested the other three officers all ? Not yet ; they aren't caught yet . WHY ? Nobody knows
Yup!
He has the power to arrest those other officers. Put actions behind those words.
Media trying to put this on extreme right is laughable. The black outfit are antifa and the young black BLM guys are looting as opportunities exist
Are going to convict based on 'emotion' or based on evidence....it turns out the autopsy is showing Floyd did not die of asphyxiation...he had Toxicity in his blood from substance intake and also had a heart condition...so as bad as this looked should we ignore medical evidence?
And any cops that diecfrom covid. On rioters.
What matters now is that they should be tried for first degree muder not third.
Don't get why people make such a big freaking deal just because a nigger died. At least it's better than choking on fried chicken Lol
Why are those 4 officers worth all this
