律师提出他们的理由
在周一的开幕词中，检察官杰里·布莱克威尔告诉陪审团，肖万“背叛了他的徽章”，他用膝盖顶着弗洛伊德的脖子，“直到他的生命被挤出来。”
他在一段由2020年5月25日事件的青少年旁观者拍摄的视频中扮演角色，并声称肖万的膝盖压在弗洛伊德的脖子后面超过8分46秒，这一时间最初包括在刑事诉讼中。布莱克威尔说，肖万用膝盖顶了弗洛伊德的脖子9分29秒，这段时间足以导致弗洛伊德因缺氧而死亡。
在开场陈述中，肖万的律师埃里克·尼尔森反驳说，该案件“远远超过9分29秒”，并敦促陪审团考虑所有证据。

弗洛伊德的家人情绪高涨
弗洛伊德的姐姐布里奇特·弗洛伊德说，她拒绝观看开场陈述。
“我还没准备好看我哥哥被谋杀的视频，”她周一晚上告诉美国广播公司新闻。

随着事件视频被解剖，目击者证实了他们所说的，弗洛伊德的家人在审判中重温他的死亡。
弗洛伊德的哥哥特伦斯·弗洛伊德在接受美国广播公司新闻直播采访时说:“能在法庭上再次听到他们谈论整个案件，并在法庭上看到肖万，感觉有点超现实、紧张和情绪化。”。

证人在证人席上崩溃了
检方传唤的证人一直在提供情感见证出庭作证时。其中，现在的前杯食品公司职员克里斯托弗·马丁说，他很遗憾告诉他的经理伪造的20美元钞票导致弗洛伊德被拘留和随后的死亡。
弗洛伊德被捕的病毒视频背后的高中生告诉检察官，她希望自己能做得更多。
达内拉·弗雷泽说:“我熬夜向乔治·弗洛伊德道歉，因为他没有做更多的事情，没有进行身体互动，没有救他的命。”。

明尼阿波利斯消防队员吉纳维芙·汉森(Genevieve Hansen)哭了，她作证说，当弗洛伊德戴着手铐躺在地上时，警察阻止她给弗洛伊德提供医疗救助时，她感到无助和“绝望”。
亨内平县法官彼得·卡希尔(Peter Cahill)曾呼吁休会10分钟，以便一名证人查尔斯·麦克米伦(Charles McMillian)在观看了警官尸体摄像头和Cup Foods监控摄像头的合成视频后能够集中精力，该视频显示警官试图将弗洛伊德带上警车。

一名混合武术战士谁是逮捕的旁观者也变得情绪化，因为他叙述他所看到的。唐纳德·威廉姆斯(Donald Williams)一边听着他打给警察的911报警电话，一边擦干眼泪，报告弗洛伊德被捕了。
考虑到他的训练，卡希尔给了威廉姆斯足够的余地来描述他认为肖万在弗洛伊德身上使用的暂停，他称之为“血液窒息”暂停。

“他的呼吸变得异常沉重，”威廉姆斯谈到弗洛伊德时说。"你实际上可以听到他的声音，你可以看到他挣扎着喘气."
纳尔逊一再试图让威廉姆斯说，随着事件的发展，他越来越愤怒。
“你不能把我描绘成愤怒的人，”威廉姆斯回应道。
911调度员:“出事了”
第一个出庭作证的证人——一名明尼阿波利斯911调度员——告诉法庭，当她在监视器上看到弗洛伊德被捕时躺在地上时，她有一种“直觉”，认为“可能出了什么问题”。耶拿·疾走说她“出于本能”，决定打电话给监督警官的警官。
疾走说，弗洛伊德从警车后面跑到地上，警察没有要求额外的援助，这让她很担心。
在一次交叉询问中，当被告向疾走询问她对明尼阿波利斯警方使用武力政策的了解时，她说，在她担任调度员的七年时间里，她只在调度中心的监视器上看到过三到四次警察事件的现场直播。
明尼阿波利斯警察局的大多数高级官员都表明了立场
理查德·齐默曼中尉是明尼阿波利斯警察局资历最老的警官，他是本周最后一个作证的证人。他告诉陪审团，他从未被训练跪在戴着手铐的人的脖子上，一旦受试者戴上手铐，他们可能对官员构成的威胁“会一直持续下去”。
当被控方问及一名官员对这个问题的责任时，他说:“那个人是你的。他是你的责任。他的安全是你的责任。”
齐默曼还称对弗洛伊德使用武力“完全没有必要”
当尼尔森盘问齐默曼时，他试图为陪审团描绘一幅画面，即齐默曼已经很久没有像肖万那样作为巡警上街了。
Key takeaways from 1st week of Derek Chauvin trial in the death of George Floyd
The trial for Derek Chauvin, the former police officer charged in the death of George Floyd, wrapped its first week in Minneapolis, with opening statements and severalkey witness testimonies.
The high-profile trial is expected to last another three weeks, as Chauvin faces charges of manslaughter, second-degree murder and third-degree murder. Even President Joe Biden is "watching closely," according to White House press secretary Jen Psaki.
Here are some key takeaways five days into the court proceedings.
Attorneys make their case
In his opening statement on Monday, prosecutor Jerry Blackwell told the jury that Chauvin "betrayed his badge" when he dug his knee into Floyd's neck "until the very life was squeezed out of him."
He played part of a video shot by a teenage bystander of the May 25, 2020, incident and alleged that Chauvin had his knee on the back of Floyd's neck for longer than 8 minutes and 46 seconds, the time initially included in a criminal complaint. Blackwell said Chauvin dug his knee into Floyd's neck for 9 minutes and 29 seconds, long enough to cause Floyd's death as a result of oxygen deficiency.
In his opening statement, Chauvin's attorney, Eric Nelson, countered that the case is "far greater than 9 minutes and 29 seconds," and urged the jury to consider all the evidence.
Emotions high for Floyd's family
Floyd's sister, Bridgett Floyd, said she refused to watch the opening statements.
"I am not ready to see the video of my brother being murdered," she told ABC News Monday evening.
As videos of the incident are dissected and witnesses testify to what they say, Floyd's family isreliving his death during the trial.
"To actually be in the courtroom and hear them talking about the whole case again and actually seeing Chauvin in the courtroom, it was kind of surreal and intense and emotional," Floyd’s brother, Terrence Floyd, told ABC News Live.
Witnesses break down on stand
Witnesses called by the prosecution have been providingemotional testimonywhile taking the stand. Among them, now-former Cup Foods clerk Christopher Martin said he regrets telling his manager about the counterfeit $20 bill that led to Floyd's detainment and subsequent death.
The high school student behind the viral video of Floyd's arrest told prosecutors that she wishes she could have done more.
"I stayed up [at night] apologizing and apologizing to George Floyd for not doing more and not physically interacting, not saving his life," said Darnella Frazier.
Minneapolis firefighter Genevieve Hansen broke down in tears, testifying that she felt helpless and "desperate" when the police prevented her from giving medical aid to Floyd as he lay handcuffed on the ground.
At one point, Hennepin County Judge Peter Cahill called for a 10-minute recess so that one witness, Charles McMillian, could gather himself after watching a composite video of the officers' body camera and a surveillance camera at Cup Foods showing officers trying to get Floyd in a squad car.
Mixed martial arts fighter calls hold 'blood choke'
A mixed martial arts fighter who was a bystander to the arrest also became emotional as herecounted what he saw. Donald Williams wiped away tears as he listened to a 911 call he made to police to report Floyd's arrest.
Given his training, Williams was allowed leeway by Cahill to describe the hold he said he recognized Chauvin was using on Floyd, which he referred to as a "blood choke" hold.
"His breathing was getting tremendously heavy," Williams said of Floyd. "You actually could hear him, you could see him struggling to actually gasp for air."
Nelson tried repeatedly to get Williams to say he was getting angrier as the incident unfolded.
"You can't paint me as angry," Williams responded.
911 dispatcher: 'Something was wrong'
The first witness to take the stand in the trial -- a Minneapolis 911 dispatcher -- told the court she had a "gut instinct" that "something might be wrong" when she saw Floyd on the ground during the arrest on a monitor. Jena Scurry said she "took that instinct" and decided to call the sergeant who supervises police officers.
The fact that Floyd went from the back of the squad car to the ground and officers had not requested additional assistance worried her, Scurry said.
During a cross-examination, when the defense pressed Scurry on her knowledge of Minneapolis Police use of force policies, she said she has only seen police incidents play out live on monitors in the dispatch center three to four times during her seven years as a dispatcher.
Most senior Minneapolis Police Department officer takes the stand
Lt. Richard Zimmerman, who has the most seniority of any officer in the Minneapolis Police Department, was the last witness to testify this week. He told the jury that he has never been trained to kneel on the neck of someone who is in handcuffs, and that once a subject is in handcuffs, the threat they may pose to officers "goes down all the way."
When asked by the prosecution what an officer's responsibility is for the subject, he said, "That person is yours. He's your responsibility. His safety is your responsibility."
Zimmerman also called the use of force used on Floyd "totally unnecessary."
When Nelson cross-examined Zimmerman, he tried to paint a picture for the jury that it's been a long time since Zimmerman was on the streets as a patrol officer, like Chauvin was.
