00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,520

Speaker 2: Brandon Turner, a former security guard at Milwaukee's Higatt Regency hotel,

58
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 2: has pleaded guilty to felony murder and the death of

59
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: DeVante Mitchell. The incident occurred on June thirtieth, twenty twenty four,

60
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: when the forty three year old Mitchell entered the hotel's

61
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: lobby and was involved in a confrontation that led to

62
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 2: his restraint by Turner and three other hotel employees. According

63
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: to court documents, Mitchell ran into the lobby and entered

64
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 2: the women's restroom, where he allegedly attempted to confine two women.

65
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 2: Turner and a hotel guest engaged in a struggle with Mitchell,

66
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 2: eventually moving him to the hotel's driveway. There, Turner, along

67
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 2: with security guard Todd Ericsson, bell hop Herbert Williamson, and

68
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: front desk worker Devin Johnson Carson, restrained Mitchell faced down

69
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 2: for approximately eight to nine minutes. By the time emergency

70
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 2: responders arrived, Mitchell was unresponsive. The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's

71
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 2: Office reported that Mitchell, who was black, suffered from heart

72
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 2: disease and had cocaine and methanphetamine in his system. The

73
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 2: cause of death was determined to be asphyxia due to restraint,

74
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 2: and the manner of death was ruled a homicide. Attorneys

75
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 2: for Mitchell's family have drawn parallels between this incident and

76
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty murder of George Floyd, citing the prolonged

77
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 2: restraint in Mitchell's pleased during the encounter. As part of

78
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 2: a plea agreement, Turner may receive probation in exchange for

79
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 2: testifying against his co defendants.

80
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,239
