If you try to do a Google search on George Floyd you can’t find anything related to his background. If this information is true then we know this man had a criminal record, probably a lengthy one.

Georgie did 7 years for armed robbery..
You can find his porn star movie, if you want.
Incarcerated Cranston, R.I. at some point per Peter Barletta.
Five years for armed robbery, and eight other convictions in Houston, Tx. Before moving to Minnesota.
I have definitely seen it reported that he was released from a prison in Texas in 2014, and that he moved to Minnesota to make a fresh start.
Before they scrubbed his past, I read he was arrested in 2007 for armed burglary, and holding a woman at gun point.
I think he was involved in bad stuff as a teen and young adult, but was trying to get his life together. The COVID19 shut down left him without a job. It’s not surprising he faced the temptation to use drugs to overcome the depression. The police should have listened to his statements about not being able to breath before they attempted to get him into the car. They knew he was doing drugs because the police report stated the people with him were known to the police. It is quite common that these drugs cause respiratory issues. The choke neck hold was unnecessary, especially for the length of time it was implemented.
He moved to Minnesota from a prison sentence in Texas for an armed home invasion, and he was the one holding the gun.
