Actions of the former officers who didn't stop Derek Chauvin leads to laws establishing that cops have a duty to step in if they witness a colleague using excessive or unauthorized force.
Dhingra said the bystander video of Floyd's final moments was"horrid," as was"the officers' standing around and not intervening" when their department had a duty-to-intervene policy at the time.
Parker said the deaths of Floyd and Eric Garner in New York — both of whose dying pleas included"I can't breathe" — could have been avoided if other officers had intervened. Alexander Shalom, the senior supervising attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union in New Jersey, said:"We shouldn't shy away from solutions that are not complete but that are still helpful. And this, I think, qualifies as exactly that.
Shalom said he agreed with Davis that"as a matter of general morality" people have a duty to intervene but that if it's not an explicit job requirement, police officers can't be held responsible for failing to do so.
