The gruesome video clearly shows how the boy died after a group of men held him down, for throwing a sandwich in the center’s cafeteria.

The recent footage was released this Tuesday, showing the exact moment when the 16-year-old male, Cornelius Fredericks, was forcefully pushed towards the ground and pinned down by the staffers. The incident is reported to have taken place on April 29th at the famous Lakeside Academy, situated in Kalamazoo.

Geoffrey Fieger, the attorney general from the Detroit area, released the footage as a part of the civil lawsuit that he filed against Michigan Youth Center, on request of the deceased black teen’s family.
