George Floyd Trial: Never Before Seen Store Surveillance Video Shown To Jurors

The Twitter mob is going to love this.

On the third day of the George Floyd Murder trial, never before seen video was played for jurors that showed the deceased inside the convenience store where the chain of events that led to the burning and looting of multiple cities was set into motion after the cops were called.

In the surveillance video from inside Cup Foods in Minneapolis, Floyd was caught on camera acting in a peculiar manner that is consistent with being stoned before he attempted to pay for his purchase using the counterfeit $20 bill which caused store employees to put in a call to the police and the encounter that ended up with the career criminal and drug addict in the morgue.

The video was played on a day when one of the clerks, a 19-year-old man named Christopher Martin gave witness testimony of what went down inside the store and his perception of Floyd’s state of mind which he described as appearing to be under the influence.

After being asked by Minnesota Assistant Attorney General Matthew Frank “When you were communicating with him, what was his demeanor like?”  Martin responded, “But it kind of took him a little long to get to what he was trying to say. So, it appeared that he was high.”

Martin also expressed remorse in bringing the bogus bill to the attention of managers and suggested that had he remained silent; that Floyd might still be alive and that it was the store’s policy of making any employee who had accepted counterfeit money pay for it out of their own check.

Unfortunately, his decision to not just eat the money resulted in what could be billions of dollars of damage to property, more of which will be destroyed following the verdict with anything less than a full second-degree murder conviction of Derek Chauvin setting off another round of media-instigated, corporate-sponsored riots.

New video of George Floyd inside a Minneapolis convenience store moments before his death was played in court today at Derek Chauvin’s murder trial as a witness said that his hands were shaking, he was unable to make conversation and he appeared to be under the influence of drugs.

Cup Foods clerk Christopher Martin, who was working on May 25, 2020, took the stand on Wednesday to testify about how staff called the cops on Floyd because they believed he used a counterfeit $20 bill.

Looking back, Martin said he wished he’d never raised alarm about the bill because he believes Floyd might still be alive if he hadn’t, telling the court: ‘This could have been avoided.’
Surveillance video from a camera mounted behind the counter showed Martin speaking with Floyd as he used the fake bill to purchase cigarettes.

Floyd then walked outside as Martin held the bill up and examined it. Martin told the court that he became suspicious of the bill because it had an unusual ‘blue pigment so I assumed it was fake’.
‘The policy was if you took a counterfeit bill you had to pay for it out of your pay-check,’ Martin explained. ‘I took it anyways and was planning to just put it on my tab – until I second guessed myself and eventually told my manager.’

The manager then instructed Martin to go outside and bring Floyd back, he said. When Floyd refused, a co-worker called police. One of the responding officers was Chauvin.
Questioned by Minnesota Assistant Attorney General Matthew Frank, Martin said that the two things he noticed about Floyd were his ‘size’ and he appeared to be ‘high’.

The video isn’t going to make Floyd’s lawyers happy after they had suggested that bringing up his drug use was a “distraction” and character assassination and that Floyd only had trace amounts of drugs in his system before his death.

The video would seem to show otherwise.

The trial continues today…
