I do not know the laws in MN. But-you do not necessarily need INTENT to be charged. That is false. There are a whole host of charges that can be filed without intent-such as manslaughter. In Texas, for the manslaughter charge, there is no requirement for intent if you can prove recklessness (DUI, for example). Intoxication manslaughter has zero intent required, but you sure as heck can be charged.
Of course intent is required for any crime, whether the intent was to engage in a course of action with reckless disregard to the deleterious consequences. Otherwise, you could charge an unconscious person with a committing a crime while unconscious.
A drunk driver INTENTionally drives his vehicle knowing that he isn’t fully in control.
Inconceivable any law enforcement officer thinks it’s ok to put knee on neck for 5 minutes. 4 officers and 1 cuffed suspect doesn’t require extraordinary measures.
