I Can’t Breathe

from Is This For Real? · host Oumar Salifou

Sifa Ngeze was involved in a vehicle accident in 2018. When her husband, Jean-Claude Rukundo, arrived to check on her, police pinned him to the ground with one officer's knee on his neck. Sifa and Jean-Claude reflect on this traumatizing experience in the aftermath of George Floyd's murder and the calls for police accountability. We spoke again to Tom Engel, founder and Chair of the Criminal Trial Lawyers Association Policing Committee, about the disturbing commonality of this brutal practice and the complete lack of disciplinary action.
