Elijah McClain death: prosecutors show body camera footage as trial of officers begins

Randy Roedema and Jason Rosenblatt have pleaded not guilty to charges of criminally negligent homicide, manslaughter and assault

Colorado prosecutors will focus on police body camera footage - both raw and digitally enhanced - as they began building their case against two officers charged in the death of Elijah McClain, a young Black man who was stopped, put in a neck hold and sedated with ketamine four years ago.

McClain's death, alongside the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and others, was among those highlighted during the Black Lives Matters protests of 2020. .
