From the article:
The release came on the same day Floyd's family announced a lawsuit against the city and the officers charged in his death

Body-camera footage from two Minneapolis police officers involved in George Floyd's deadly arrest were
made public Wednesday, documenting the critical moments leading up to his death as he pleaded with officers to let him go.

“I'm not a bad guy!" Floyd said as he struggled with officers in the presence of onlookers. One bystander tells Floyd, "You can't win."

"I don't want to win," Floyd replies.

The recordings were taken from the body cameras of former officers Thomas Lane and J. Kueng, who were fired and subsequently charged -- with two other officers -- in Floyd's death. Derek Chauvin, who pinned his knee on Floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes faces a second-degree murder charge. Lane, Kueng and Tou Thao are charged with aiding and abetting.
