Baden disputes the findings of health conditions
Dr. Allecia Wilson, director of autopsy and forensic sciences at the University of Michigan and one of two examiners on behalf of the family, said, "The evidence is consistent with mechanical asphyxia as the cause of death and homicide as the manner of death."
Dr. Michael Baden, also working for the family, said the second autopsy shows that Floyd "had no underlying medical problem that caused or contributed to his death. ... He was in good health. The compressive pressure of the neck and back are not seen at autopsy because the pressure has been released by the time the body comes to the medical examiner's office.
Baden said the belief that someone is breathing if they can talk "is not true. I am talking and talking and talking and not breathing in front of you." Floyd repeatedly said "I can't breathe" while on the pavement.
Crump said that all the evidence to date points to Floyd having died at the scene and not later that night, when he was at HCMC.
"The medics, based on the EMT report that we have in our possession, performed pulse checks several times finding none and delivered one shock by their monitor, but George's condition did not change," he said. "They delivered him to the hospital, continued ventilation, but that last report was the patient was still pulseless."
....”The compressive pressure of the neck and back are not seen at autopsy because the pressure has been released by the time the body comes to the medical examiner’s office”....
It is hard to trust either report.
Fentanyl itself causes cardiac arrest, which is the cause of death. My question is: does the medical examiner believe with 100% certainty that the officers conduct contributed to the cardiac arrest?
I put zero stock in the “independent” autopsy by the Floyd familiy’s hired gun.
What not COVID ...I’m shocked
Battling experts....
We are seeing a lot of that.
Climate change, Covid 19,
Now Medical examiners...
Did the fentanyl stop his breathing, or did the meth stop his heart?
