NEW YORK - The disciplinary trial of the New York City police officer who put Eric Garner, an unarmed black man, in a fatal chokehold began on Monday, nearly five years after widely seen video of the death sparked a national outcry about policing tactics.
Videos recorded on bystanders’ cellphones showed Garner, who was 43, saying “I can’t breathe” 11 times before he died. The phrase became a rallying cry in the early days of the Black Lives Matter movement, which seeks to end the disproportionate use of deadly force against nonwhite people by U.S. police departments.

London said Pantaleo did not using a chokehold, but rather a “seat belt” maneuver that goes around the torso which slipped into a neck hold because of Garner’s size. Garner was considered medically obese at 400 pounds .
