George Floyd was an unarmed black man who was murdered by four Minneapolis police officers. The video of Floyd’s tragic death went viral and sparked national outrage over police brutality. Floyd was seen in the video many times saying I can’t breathe. Officer Derek Chauvin did not care enough just to remove his knee from the back of his neck. If Officer Chauvin would have let his knee off Floyd’s neck then Floyd would be alive right now.
4 Minneapolis police officers have been fired in the aftermath of George Floyd's death.
Floyd was unarmed & handcuffed. He died after an officer knelt on his neck for up to 10 minutes until he laid motionless on the ground.😓#BlackLivesMatter#JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

Instead of showing compassion to Floyd these future Missouri University students went out of the way to make a little parody video of George Floyd’s death.
Piper Zenter, Anneliese Aherns, and Holland Easterla made a disgusting Snapchat video making fun of George Floyd’s death.
In the video, one girl is kneeling over another, who yells that she cannot breathe and the two of them laugh. The girl being pinned down appears to have an alcoholic beverage in her hand and the video is captioned, “Aw [name] can’t breathe.” Someone off-camera is heard saying, “You can do it.” as they all giggle.

The University of Missouri took to Twitter about this disgusting incident about their future students.
Thank you for letting us know. We are aware of the video and have submitted the details to the appropriate offices.
