Petra Laszlo, the former camera operator who now faces a criminal trial, says Osama Abdul Mohsen changed his testimony after initially blaming the police, according to a Mashable [translation](http://mashable.com/2015/10/20/camerawoman-kick-refugee-sue-facebook/#6T5hjW32lEqt "undefined") of the interview. Mohsen is the father famously tripped in a footage that has since gone viral. She said she was suing Facebook for allowing groups that threatened her to remain on the site while removing groups that supported her.
