Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman has been dismissed from the case of the four former Minneapolis Police Officers involved in the death of George Floyd.
Television reporters covering a wide-rangin motion hearing say Judge Peter Cahill called it "sloppy" when state prosecutors included county prosecutors in an interview of the medical examiner who conducted an autopsy of George Floyd.
Cahill says Freeman and other county prosecutors will now be witnesses if the Attorney General's Office wants to call them during trial. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison took over prosecution of the four former officers from Freeman.
