Opening statements started in the federal trial of three former police officers charged with violating George Floyd’s civil rights. The prosecution argued that the officers had an obligation to care for the suspect in custody, but they ignored Floyd’s rights and did not render aid. The defense team for two of the men argued that they were rookie officers who did not have enough training to be on the streets.Jan. 24, 2022
