Lawyers for three police officers charged in the death of Manny Ellis have challenged a forensic video analyst’s interpretation of videos shot by witnesses that show the Black man’s fatal arrest in Tacoma, Washington. Analyst Grant Fredericks showed the jury a video Wednesday that showed Ellis with his hands in the air as Burbank fired the Taser at his chest and Collins putting his arm around Ellis’ neck. On Thursday, Collins' attorney Jared Ausserer said the video shows Ellis failed to follow the officers’ repeated commands to put his hands behind his back. Fredericks disagrees. He says it shows Burbank moving Ellis' arm behind his back. Prosecutors also plan to call Ellis’ sister, Monét Carter-Mixon, to testify Thursday.

As Ellis holds his hands in the air in posture indicating surrender, Burbank fires the Taser and Collins puts his arm around Ellis’ neck in a chokehold. Ellis’ head falls to the ground and he stops moving. “Collins could be heard saying put your hands behind your back,” Ausserer said. “At no point does he put his hands behind his back.”“He put his hand behind his back. The video shows it,” he said, adding that Burbank grabbed one of Ellis’ arms that was in the air and put it behind his back.
When prosecutors played another video on Wednesday showing Collins holding Ellis on the ground and Ellis screaming as he was shocked with the Taser, sobs could be heard from the side of the courtroom where Ellis’ family and supporters were seated.
