MINNEAPOLIS (Reuters) -Derek Chauvin broke Minneapolis police department rules and its ethics code governing the “sanctity of life” in his deadly arrest of George Floyd last May, the city’s police chief testified at the former officer’s murder trial on Monday.

It’s not part of our training, and it is certainly not part of our ethics and our values,” Chief Medaria Arradondo told the jury as prosecutors sought to undermine a central plank of Chauvin’s defense.

Minneapolis police chief says officer violated policy in use of force to restrain Flo

During one of the most anticipated moments in the trial, Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo unequivocally told the court Monday afternoon that Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer who knelt on George Floyd’s neck before he died, violated the department’s policy in his use of force to restrain Floyd. He followed two other senior Minneapolis police officials who took the stand. It is remarkably rare for top officials to testify against one of their own officers, experts say.
