Police Body Camera Footage Proves George Floyd Was Not "Murdered"

[Rigby5]

LIE. Already shown the tactic used by Chauvin was taught in their own manuals and videos. Try to learn something before embarrassing yourself any more. So a large drugged up out of control man is not a deadly threat to a much smaller man? GTFO with your bullshit. Only cause of death. That would be funny if it weren’t such an asinine statements.

Chief said he didn't have an issue with the use of the neck restraint, but the length of time it was held. Ignoring that for five minutes the dude Floyd, was still talking, so the issue was the last four minutes. that's debatable due to where they were in the street and the need to hand him over to the paramedics.

Paramedics they called and then called back to come in with lights and sirens...showing they knew he needed medical help.......

The paramedics testified they were not immu

Passing fake $20's isn't a death penalty offense...and not recognizing that someone you're arresting for passing fake $20's is OD'ing on drugs isn't murder!

Everyone in that crowd could see Floyd was in distress... except for Chauvin.

He is a political officer of the mayor....you dumb shit....he was appointed by the mayor....you moron........he is going to say anything the mayor wants....to keep the democrat party brownshirts from burning the city down...again.

Do you understand that the cops knew he was on drugs and in trouble, and their training is to keep criminals subdued so they don't struggle and cause more damage from the over dose?

That's sounds suspiciously like, "We had to destroy the village to save it." you fucking retard...

But let's look at the man's record as a police officer, this supposed political hack.


A fifth-generation Minnesota resident, Arradondo joined the MPD in 1989 as a patrol officer in the Fourth Precinct and worked his way up through the police ranks until he was named the inspector for the First Precinct.[.... Arrandondo was promoted to head of the Internal Affairs Unit responsible for investigation of allegations of officer misconduct.[4]

Arradondo was a Deputy Chief and Assistant Chief before being nominated as Minneapolis's new Chief of Police by the Mayor of Minneapolis, after the resignation of former police chief Janeé Harteau in mid-2017, shortly after the shooting of Justine Damond by former Minneapolis police officer Mohammed Noor.[5][6]

So, 32 years as a cop, including being an inspector and head of the IA Unit... Seems to me that he should be an expert on what constitutes improper behavior by a police officer.

you moron...you idiot...you fucking child...

No, YOU are the child dumbfuck. Refusing to read ANY evidence and letting your hatred of whitey dictate everything. Hey dumbfuck, why did Floyd also LIE when asked directly if he had taken anything? He says NO twice. Plain as day. So you fucking uneducated racist how come there are ZERO injuries to the neck or chest aside from a checked rib from CPR? Better review the department training videos. Chauvin used the technique TAUGHT by that idiot chief’s department. Try to educate yourself.

Wrong.
Chauvin was taught to only use a choke hold like that is the other person was a deadly threat and self defense warranted causing harm and risking death.
It is obvious the choke hold was not needed and was the only cause of death.

No...it isn't the obvious cause of death according to the coroners report...if it was the cause of death the knee on the neck would have damaged the neck in some way...it didn't...

the Hennepin County Chief Medical Examiner, Andrew Baker:

"No life-threatening injuries identified --

"A. No facial, oral mucosal, or conjunctival petechiae

"B. No injuries of anterior muscles of neck or laryngeal structures

"C. No scalp soft tissue, skull, or brain injuries

"D. No chest wall soft tissue injuries, rib fractures (other than a single rib fracture from CPR), vertebral column injuries, or visceral injuries

"E. Incision and subcutaneous dissection of posterior and lateral neck, shoulders, back, flanks, and buttocks negative for occult trauma"

In short: No bloodshot eyes and no trauma to any part of Floyd's neck.

And yet, day after day, prosecutors, witnesses and the media tell us that Chauvin "squeezed the life out of" Floyd. The medical evidence establishes that whatever else caused his death, it was NOT asphyxiation.

That's the entire case against Officer Chauvin! But the howling mob isn't giving up its holy religious observance because of one dork in a lab coat. The sun might not rise! The city of Minneapolis could be wiped out! Wait -- that might actually happen.


The medical examiner also found that Floyd had enough fentanyl in his system -- I don't want to say "to kill a horse," because that would be a cliche. But it would be enough to bump off an entire team of Budweiser Clydesdales. In technical medical jargon:

"A. Blood drug and novel psychoactive substances screens:

"1. Fentanyl 11 ng/mL"

That's just the first few words of the "Toxicology" section. Also listed are norfentanyl, 4-ANPP, methamphetamine, cannabinoids, amphetamines, morphine and so on.

But the 11 nanograms per milliliter of fentanyl is rather important, inasmuch as the chief medical examiner called this "a fatal level of fentanyl under normal circumstances," saying, "deaths have been certified with levels of 3."

Three. But George Floyd went up to 11.
Naturally, Baker was quick to add, "I am not saying this killed him." Please don't throw me to the woke gods! Leave me to my test tubes! (And you thought lawyers were craven.)

Derek Chauvin, Human Sacrifice

Wrong.
The carotid artery and the esophagus are easily compressed enough to kill without leaving any trace at all.
The only way you can tell is that the brain dies first from lack of oxygen, and that is what the autopsy suggests.
Choking someone to death does not have to even leave a bruise

And the death could not have been caused by drugs.
There is no way he could have died that quickly from ingesting pills that take longer than that to just dissolve.
Nor would a drug overdose make it any less murder, since they easily could have gotten him to a hospital in time to save his life if they wanted to.

The carotid artery and the esophagus are easily compressed enough to kill without leaving any trace at all.


Sorry...that isn't what the prosecution is saying....they are saying he used excessive force against the neck...not that he used, "just enough."

Again.....he had 3X the lethal dose of fentanyl......plus a cocktail of other things in his system....revved up by his fight against the cops....you don't know what you are talking about.

They called paramedics ........... the paramedics refused to treat at the scene because of the angry, aggressive crowd...they took him and moved blocks away before they started to work on him.......

You don't understand what was going on...

Incorrect!
ANY force on the neck is ECESSIVE!
Any neck restraint IS a choke hold and is illegal unless you have the right to use deadly force due to the need for self defence.
No pressure at all on the neck is otherwise legal, at all.

Drug deaths are easily detected by autopsy, and both said that it was NOT drugs that killed.

And no, the paramedics immediately treated him.
I watched video of the paramedics working on him at the scene.
If they wanted privacy, they could have just closed the ambulance door.
They didn't.
They left it open.

Seriously? George Floyd was using counterfeit money. When he was called on it by the store he COULD have returned the cigarettes he bought and that would have been the end of it! HE made the choice not to do so even as the store employees asked him to not once but twice! That action resulted in the store calling the Police. That's on nobody BUT George Floyd!

He and his friend also could have driven off before the cops got there... but they didn't. What they should or should not have done is kind of pointless.

The question is, did Chauvin use deadly force that caused his death. The coroner says he did. Witnesses say he did. His own bosses say he did.

He's toast.

The fact that Floyd and friend sat there in the car outside of the food mart only goes to show what IDIOTS both he and his friend are!

The autopsy is the thing that tells me Chauvin didn't use "deadly force"...he's guilty of failing to recognize that Floyd was OD'ing on drugs...drugs that Floyd the idiot most likely ingested to keep them from being found by the Police! That's an outcome that Floyd the idiot could have avoided if he HAD left after passing the counterfeit bill or HAD told the Police that he had taken a large amount of drugs and was having difficulty breathing because of it!

he's guilty of failing to recognize that Floyd was OD'ing on drugs

That is not correct......here, something you won't here about MPD policy...

Further, officers are not only permitted but required to use force not only to protect themselves and the public, but to protect the in-custody suspect, even from himself.

To the extent the officers believed Floyd was suffering from excited delirium–and we know they were, because they are heard discussing this concern on their body camera footage–

the standard protocol is to completely restrain the suspect’s entire body to prevent the over-exertion believed to kill in cases of excited delirium.

Further, it is well recognized that overdose victims who regain consciousness often immediately respond with violence when they rouse, and thus steps to prevent this would be reasonable. This is all the more the case when the suspect is being restrained on the street in one of the busiest intersections of the city, with moving traffic mere feet away.

LIVE: Chauvin Trial Day 6 – Will State Offer Proof of Cause of Death?

After a full week of state's witness, we've not yet seen any testimony on Floyd's actual cause of death

legalinsurrection.com

Excited delirium is from stimulants or psychedelic's, of which fentanyl is neither.
In fact, Floyd appeared slow, sleepy, and passive.
The exact opposite of excited delirium.

The cops suspected delirium.......they aren't experts, and they didn't submit his blood for chemical analysis....they thought that's what it was and they restrained him as per MPD protocols ......

The symptoms were the exact OPPOSITE of delirium.
He was obviously in a weak and depressed state where they should have kept him walking around, just to prevent him going unconscious and falling asleep.

And it is illegal to apply ANY pressure to the neck unless the person is dangerously violent.
Sitting on his chest was also illegal.

why was he falling to floor and saying “I can’t breathe” before Chauvin even touched him?

We don't have the audio of Floyd saying I can't breath anywhere, but we do have the crowd testifying that he said it many times AFTER the choke hold and the cops piling on his chest.
He never was "falling to the floor".
He sat on the curb when the police told him to sit on the curb.
The only time he fell to the ground was after the cops pulled him back out of the patrol car backseat.

Seriously? George Floyd was using counterfeit money. When he was called on it by the store he COULD have returned the cigarettes he bought and that would have been the end of it! HE made the choice not to do so even as the store employees asked him to not once but twice! That action resulted in the store calling the Police. That's on nobody BUT George Floyd!

He and his friend also could have driven off before the cops got there... but they didn't. What they should or should not have done is kind of pointless.

The question is, did Chauvin use deadly force that caused his death. The coroner says he did. Witnesses say he did. His own bosses say he did.

That's an outcome that Floyd the idiot could have avoided if he HAD left after passing the counterfeit bill or HAD told the Police that he had taken a large amount of drugs and was having difficulty breathing because of it!

The autopsy said asphyxiation, and NOT drugs.

Asphyxiation caused by what? Floyd was complaining about not being able to breathe as he was standing before they even tried to put him in the car. Are you claiming that was caused by the Police? Or is a more likely reason that the drugs he had ingested were filling his lungs with fluid making it hard for him to breath? An overdose of Fentanyl would have that effect.

I watched all the video and never heard Floyd complain about trouble breathing until they piled on top of him, on the ground.

Drugs never fill the lungs with fluid, and anything like that would have been obvious to the coronors.
No, all of the medical experts say it was murder through pressure on the neck.
Although weight on the rib cage was not going to help either.

Then you obviously DIDN'T watch all of the video because Floyd DID complain about having trouble breathing long before he was held down on the ground! Drugs never fill the lungs with fluid? You obviously don't know what an overdose of Fentanyl does!

How could drugs fill the lungs with fluid?
About the only way that could happen is with an allergic reaction, and fentanyl reduces allergic responses.
Here are the overdose symptoms:
{...
Overdose symptoms may include slow breathing and heart rate, severe drowsiness, muscle weakness, cold and clammy skin, pinpoint pupils, and fainting.
...}
Nothing about lungs filling with liquid, and that would take a very long time.

He fell asleep in the car before the cops arrived and the friends, girlfriend and drug dealer, couldn't wake him up...that is why they were still there when the cops arrived...

He had a cocktail in his system.....and over 3X the lethal level of fentanyl......

Wrong.
He was not asleep when the cops arrived.
The video shows him awake and reaching around in the car, before the police announce their presence.

A lethal level is one that can kill, not one that will for sure.
Due to tolerance levels increasing with use, this level likely had almost no effect on Floyd.

His friends told police he fell asleep and they couldn't wake him up....

You can keep trying to explain away his over dose, but it just doesn't fly.......

3X the lethal level of drugs with his body that had underlying health conditions....

 

[Turtlesoup]

Actually "We" have the body cam that shows what really went down not just some media and BLM bullshit emotional manipulation. "We" also have the tox report and floyds criminal record of violence and drug abuse........"We" all aren't as stupid as the racist terrorist blm and prosecution hope people are....

His criminal record doesn't matter. If you want to bring that in, let's also bring in the other 18 times Chauvin violated people's civil rights.

The Tox Screen doesn't matter, because it takes HOURS to die of a drug overdose. he was dead in minutes after encounter Chauvin.

Your Boy is going down. Deal with it.

chauvin violated other 18 peoples civil rights based on what? Criminals whinning like Floyd that the cops were picking on them by arresting their criminal asses?

It does not take hours to die of drug overdose--what an ignorant claim.

The autopsy is the thing that tells me Chauvin didn't use "deadly force"...he's guilty of failing to recognize that Floyd was OD'ing on drugs...drugs that Floyd the idiot most likely ingested to keep them from being found by the Police! That's an outcome that Floyd the idiot could have avoided if he HAD left after passing the counterfeit bill or HAD told the Police that he had taken a large amount of drugs and was having difficulty breathing because of it!

The autopsy said asphyxiation, and NOT drugs.

You need to look up asphyxiation---you apparently don't understand the MEANING.

It means lack of oxygen for the body---not what caused the lack of oxygen.

Drugs suppress the respiratory system (or circulatory system) so ergo-----body lacks oxygen while the one suffering from the drugs is STILL getting air across the vocal cords allowing them to talk but not able to get their lungs to process oxygen with the heart then stopping and the brain dying aka death. The doctor is actually saying Floyd die of lung issues--while the ME is saying the heart. Which is why most intelligent ME's chose better words for autopsies to avoid legal issues and why this doctor is being so precise with his dx....

Well, well, so now we find out that the footage that shows the best view of where Chauvin's knee was shows that his knee was not on Floyd's neck but was on his shoulder blade. Under cross-examination, Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo, who has been brazenly biased against Chauvin, even admitted that Kueng's bodycam footage shows that Chauvin's knee was on Floyd's shoulder, not on his neck. This, of course, explains why the autopsy found no trace of bruising on the neck.

[Defense attorney] Nelson played for Arradondo bystander video from the crime scene, which showed Chauvin's knee on Floyd's body, and then played a second video from a different angle in the same moments before and while Floyd was being placed on a gurney.

The defense attorney then showed both camera views simultaneously and asked: "From the perspective of [bystander] Ms. [Darnella] Frazier’s camera, it would appear that Officer Chauvin’s knee is on the neck of Mr. Floyd."

Arradondo said yes. Then, Nelson referenced the second video, showing the officer's body camera footage, and asked: "Would you agree that from the perspective of Officer Kueng's body camera that it appears that Officer Chauvin’s knee was more on Mr. Floyd’s shoulder blade?"

"Yes," Arradondo conceded. ( Chauvin trial: Minneapolis police chief testifies, ER doc theorizes that lack of oxygen stopped Floyd's heart | Fox News)

We also found out that two of the drugs that Floyd took shortly before the incident (fentanyl and methamphetamine) are known for making breathing more difficult.

No dipshit. Just because you’re too stupid to understand anything doesn’t mean the jury will do what you demand. No conviction on your bullshit murder charge. Funny you keep ignoring everything else from that day. Fuck off asshole. Idiots like you should keep their uneducated mouths shut.

The Jury will convict because the tape is so horrible.

We have the tape.

You have some guys mealy-mouthing about milligrams.

We win.

No, YOU are the child dumbfuck. Refusing to read ANY evidence and letting your hatred of whitey dictate everything. Hey dumbfuck, why did Floyd also LIE when asked directly if he had taken anything? He says NO twice. Plain as day. So you fucking uneducated racist how come there are ZERO injuries to the neck or chest aside from a checked rib from CPR? Better review the department training videos. Chauvin used the technique TAUGHT by that idiot chief’s department. Try to educate yourself.

Those training videos are for suspects who are resisting. Floyd was handcuffed, on the ground and pretty much stopped moving after five minutes... being dead and all. It doesn't matter what he took, that isn't what killed him. The knee to the neck did.

Chauvin is going down...

No asshole. The medical examiner saying NO injuries to the windpipe, throat, or chest. Overdose of Fentanyl. Most people aren’t as stupid as you and can understand when a professional says this killed Floyd as it was 3x the FATAL dose. The knee didn’t kill him no matter how much your racist ass lies about it dumbfuck.

 

[lantern2814]

Actually "We" have the body cam that shows what really went down not just some media and BLM bullshit emotional manipulation. "We" also have the tox report and floyds criminal record of violence and drug abuse........"We" all aren't as stupid as the racist terrorist blm and prosecution hope people are....

His criminal record doesn't matter. If you want to bring that in, let's also bring in the other 18 times Chauvin violated people's civil rights.

The Tox Screen doesn't matter, because it takes HOURS to die of a drug overdose. he was dead in minutes after encounter Chauvin.

Your Boy is going down. Deal with it.

Your tantrum is getting funny asshole. Now the toxicology doesn’t matter. Yeah it does idiot. That’s why Chauvin doesn’t go down. Deal with it.

I have changed my mind about the George Floyd case, after watching several hours of Derek Chauvin's trial, and especially after watching the previously unreleased police body-camera footage of the incident.

I do not believe that Chauvin committed second-degree murder. I think he committed manslaughter. I would need several pages to fully explain the reasons for my view. Here are a few points that capture the main reasons:

* Floyd could have avoided being pinned on the ground in the first place if he had simply obeyed the police officers' repeated request to get into the back of the police car.

* The officers did not pin Floyd on the ground until after he strongly resisted being put into the police car and after he then pushed his way out of the car and came out the other side of the car. Only at that point did the officers pin him on the ground.

* Floyd's claim that he was afraid to get into confined spaces and therefore afraid to get into the back of the police car seems extremely doubtful, given the fact that Floyd had just spent several minutes in the front of a small car with the windows rolled up. The body camera footage shows that the front of the car that Floyd was taken from was virtually identical in size to the back of the police car.

* The officers may have doubted Floyd's claim that he could not breathe because he started making this claim long before he was pinned on the ground and at a time when he clearly could breathe, as the officers pointed out to him.

* Floyd's autopsy report proves that he was heavily under the influence of drugs during the incident. This could explain his irrational behavior.

* Floyd deserves most of the blame for the incident. Chauvin should not have put his knee on Floyd's neck. He should have eased up on Floyd's neck after Floyd stopped moving, and he should have checked Floyd's vital signs after he stopped moving. But, again, Floyd never would have been pinned on the ground in the first place if he had simply gotten into the back of the police car as he was repeatedly instructed to do.

And, just for the record, George Floyd was neither a "gentle person" nor "a good father"; he was a violent thug with a long rap sheet:

Two Sides To Every Story: George Floyd And Derek Chauvin – Stateline Network EXTRA

Blaming the victim for his own murder? People with mental issues should be blamed also for police brutality? The cop used unnecessary force. You would not do this to a dog. The cops are acting like trial, jury, and executioner. The cop puts his hand in his pocket thus pushing down on his knee to put more pressure on George's neck. Everyone who saw this saw a live murder. period. No matter who he was George deserved his day in court and not on the ground getting the life choked out of him. Drugs and medical conditions did not kill him, the cop did.

If the dog was rabid you wouldnt try to be nice to it, you would put it down. George Floyd had 5 opportunities to peacefully be put in a squad car (where he kept saying "i cant breathe") and when Floyd got out of the car again, he was restrained and died of a drug overdose.

Wrong.
We don't know if or what he said in the squad car.
When 3 cops piled on top of him, then everyone heard him say he could not breath.
Wonder why?

And no, the autopsy said he did NOT die from a drug overdose.

We can’t verify whether drugs or heart issues contributed to Floyd’s death, but we can verify that three medical examiners ruled his death a homicide. What we can verify is that autopsies, including the official one conducted by Hennepin County, showed Floyd was killed because Chauvin kept pressure on Floyd’s neck that prevented him from breathing, and the death was ruled a homicide

New court docs say George Floyd had "fatal level" of fentanyl in his system (msn.com)

Handwritten notes of a law enforcement interview with Dr. Andrew Baker, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner, say Floyd had 11 ng/mL of fentanyl in his system.
"If he were found dead at home alone and no other apparent causes, this could be acceptable to call an OD. Deaths have been certified with levels of 3," Baker told investigators.

Do you know what "FATAL" means?

A fatal drug level for an average person does not mean it would kill a large person, and it is clear from the autopsy that drugs were not the cause of death.

Delusional claim----floyd over dosed on the multiple drugs that he had in his system.

There was no damage or bruising to floyds neck/back area so hence we all know that his circulation and breathing were NOT cut off by the cops holding him down.
You certainly do not know anatomy and that friction is what causes bruising and there was no friction just the weight of his body on his neck and his hand in his pocket pushing his knee down.. Filthy pig. and you probably don't know your ass from a hole in the ground.

You lie. If he had an overdose of drugs in his body he would have died before the cop put him on the ground and he did not. The cause of death was asphyxiation cutting off oxygen and blood supply to his brain and lungs. He is going down like the dirty dog he is. None of the examinations showed enough drugs in his body to kill him.

 

[LilOlLady]

Where it may take a few minutes for someone who just took heroin to feel the effects of an overdose, someone who uses fentanyl will feel it within seconds.

[Rigby5]

Seriously? George Floyd was using counterfeit money. When he was called on it by the store he COULD have returned the cigarettes he bought and that would have been the end of it! HE made the choice not to do so even as the store employees asked him to not once but twice! That action resulted in the store calling the Police. That's on nobody BUT George Floyd!

He and his friend also could have driven off before the cops got there... but they didn't. What they should or should not have done is kind of pointless.

The question is, did Chauvin use deadly force that caused his death. The coroner says he did. Witnesses say he did. His own bosses say he did.

He's toast.

The fact that Floyd and friend sat there in the car outside of the food mart only goes to show what IDIOTS both he and his friend are!

The autopsy is the thing that tells me Chauvin didn't use "deadly force"...he's guilty of failing to recognize that Floyd was OD'ing on drugs...drugs that Floyd the idiot most likely ingested to keep them from being found by the Police! That's an outcome that Floyd the idiot could have avoided if he HAD left after passing the counterfeit bill or HAD told the Police that he had taken a large amount of drugs and was having difficulty breathing because of it!

The autopsy said asphyxiation, and NOT drugs.

Asphyxiation caused by what? Floyd was complaining about not being able to breathe as he was standing before they even tried to put him in the car. Are you claiming that was caused by the Police? Or is a more likely reason that the drugs he had ingested were filling his lungs with fluid making it hard for him to breath? An overdose of Fentanyl would have that effect.

I watched all the video and never heard Floyd complain about trouble breathing until they piled on top of him, on the ground.

Drugs never fill the lungs with fluid, and anything like that would have been obvious to the coronors.
No, all of the medical experts say it was murder through pressure on the neck.
Although weight on the rib cage was not going to help either.

Then you obviously DIDN'T watch all of the video because Floyd DID complain about having trouble breathing long before he was held down on the ground! Drugs never fill the lungs with fluid? You obviously don't know what an overdose of Fentanyl does!

How could drugs fill the lungs with fluid?
About the only way that could happen is with an allergic reaction, and fentanyl reduces allergic responses.
Here are the overdose symptoms:
{...
Overdose symptoms may include slow breathing and heart rate, severe drowsiness, muscle weakness, cold and clammy skin, pinpoint pupils, and fainting.
...}
Nothing about lungs filling with liquid, and that would take a very long time.

He fell asleep in the car before the cops arrived and the friends, girlfriend and drug dealer, couldn't wake him up...that is why they were still there when the cops arrived...

He had a cocktail in his system.....and over 3X the lethal level of fentanyl......

Wrong.
He was not asleep when the cops arrived.
The video shows him awake and reaching around in the car, before the police announce their presence.

A lethal level is one that can kill, not one that will for sure.
Due to tolerance levels increasing with use, this level likely had almost no effect on Floyd.

His friends told police he fell asleep and they couldn't wake him up....

You can keep trying to explain away his over dose, but it just doesn't fly.......

3X the lethal level of drugs with his body that had underlying health conditions....

No, I saw the video.
The friends did not tell the police anything.
There was only one other person in the car, and he never said anything to police.
Police opened the door themselves, and Floyd was never asleep.

And drugs do not work the way you described.
They are not toxic at all.
They are a simulation of the control mechanisms used by the body.
They can cause the body to release dopamine, melatonin, or other chemicals that regulate how you feel or you metabolism.
But the more you use drugs, the less effect they have.
So if Floyd used drugs a lot, then he could have 10 times the normal lethal dose, and it would do NOTHING at all.

This was verified by every doctor who examimed Floyd after his death.
The drugs were NOT the cause of death.

 

[Rigby5]

Actually "We" have the body cam that shows what really went down not just some media and BLM bullshit emotional manipulation. "We" also have the tox report and floyds criminal record of violence and drug abuse........"We" all aren't as stupid as the racist terrorist blm and prosecution hope people are....

His criminal record doesn't matter. If you want to bring that in, let's also bring in the other 18 times Chauvin violated people's civil rights.

The Tox Screen doesn't matter, because it takes HOURS to die of a drug overdose. he was dead in minutes after encounter Chauvin.

Your Boy is going down. Deal with it.

chauvin violated other 18 peoples civil rights based on what? Criminals whinning like Floyd that the cops were picking on them by arresting their criminal asses?

It does not take hours to die of drug overdose--what an ignorant claim.

An intravenous injection can be very quick, but swallowing pills can take hour.
Its intentional.
