Day Three: Rivera didn't peg Flaco at first out of fear of family's safety

Rivera said he told the police it was someone in a white hoodie, but did not at first tell them it was Flaco, because he was scared.

"I have family," Rivera told the Prosecution. "I ain't' gonna let no one hurt my family," Rivera said.

Upon being brought to UPD, Rivera said that police blamed him for Officer Lindsey's shooting, punching him, and choking him, he said. Rivera was kept there for hours, and said he was hit all over his body by the officers after his arrest.

Rivera said he screamed out for them to give him a lie detector test, which is when the beating stopped.
