The complaint alleges Barrett said he had been trying to get up the "courage" to play the knockout game for a week
In the video, according to a
federal affidavit filed in the case, Barrett allegedly said: "The plan is to see
if I were to hit a black person, would this be nationally televised?"
He then allegedly "hit the man
with such force that the man immediately fell to the ground. Barrett then
laughed and said 'knockout,' as he ran to his vehicle and fled."
The victim suffered two jaw
fractures and was hospitalized for several days, the complaint said.
