George Floyd’s brother on protesters: ‘They have pain. They have the same pain that I feel’

CNN  

CNN — The brother of George Floyd — the man who died after pleading that he couldn’t breathe while a police officer held him down with his knee — said that he wants justice for his brother’s death after a second night of protests. “People are torn and hurt because they’re tired of seeing black men die constantly, over and over again,” Philonise Floyd said in an interview with CNN’s “New Day.” Protests overnight in Minneapolis were marked by looting and buildings set on fire as crowds of demonstrators clashed with police. … I’m never going to get my brother back,” Philonise Floyd said while wiping away tears. Philonise Floyd said he wants to see the officers involved in his brother’s death to be charged with murder. His kids will never see him again.” George Floyd’s family attorney Benjamin Crump said the family wants an independent autopsy to be done because they “do not trust” the city of Minneapolis after what happened.
