A very good analysis of the facts of the George Floyd case.
It explains much of the exculpatory evidence which has been emerging, and shows how much of the evidence has been omitted in the Media coverage.
I’m sticking with Manslaughter as the appropriate charge.
Too long. Good grief. Here’s the thumbnail. Because Soros told Ellison, we need chaos to get PDJT out of office, so upgrade the charge to 2nd degree, which will be nearly impossible.
Aggravated assault at the most, 3 or less years in prison.
It doesn’t matter. The mob wants blood.
Good analysis. “Mr. Floyd did not voluntarily get in the car.” I hope Chauvin walks. Police deal with non-voluntary actions of citizens daily. Very sad. Police deserve 100% respect and the bad police deserve respect, a smile and a phone call to his supervisor. Floyd was a loser and lacked the strength to be respectful, cheerful and to research for the supervisor’s phone number. Yes, I’ve dealt with loser policemen 3x and it was rough but still an opportunity to show respect.
I could see this as an October Surprise.Suppose they hold the cops on murder and abetting charges.
Then in September after the conventions but before the debates, the prosecutor drops the charges against the rookies. More protests ensue. The candidates are asked about it by the MSM during the debates and the MSM twists President Trump's answers.
Then, in the third week of October the prosecutor drops the charges against Chauvin, too. Then the riots resume.
Then, America goes to the polls.

Although historically black and latino officers kill more black perps in the course of their duty than do white cops, there is never outrage when it occurs but when white officers do it they are guilty of policing while white and subject to immediate termination, indictment and outrage
The only reason Chauvin will be given a reduced charge and a light sentence is to have the riots re-start.
Rodney King was a lesson.
Uh, because he was never Guilty of Murder?
I keep asking on Fakebook and Twitter if the Dealer that sold him the Illegal Drugs that were found in his system has been arrested yet?
After all, that FACT contributed to his untimely Death just as much as the actions of the Officer involved...
So far I am getting called a Racist and am told that the Autopsy showed that Floyd was strangled by the Cop, which of course is untrue.
The Cop and the Drug Dealer should both be “charged” with Involuntary Manslaughter IMHO. It’s then up to the State to prove its Case.
Fantastic article! Kudos!
an argument that is omitted from this article is that george floyd was a professional bouncer for 10 years, and that chauvin was likely aware of that. bouncers are hired and paid to exert physical control over unruly night club customers in potentially difficult circumstances. therefore, they are likely to have unarmed self defense training of some sort— wrestling, judo, whatever. chauvin would therefore be likely to have needed to take this into account in restraining floyd, since imho at least in theory it represents an additional potential threat to the officers.
“George Floyd was experiencing cardiopulmonary and psychological distress minutes before he was placed on the ground,..”
Yo...listen up you Minnesota democrats. Don’t have a heart incident in the city...the cops will treat you like you have ESDs or whatever and then kill you. The claustrophobia I TOTALLY understand. That condition can kill you in itself.And for what? Supposedly he passed a counterteit $20? How did the store know? Was it monopoly money? How did he know? I don’t know if I have counterfeit bills in my wallet..does anybody? Job well done men in blue. Look what a mess you created.
CNN already convicted him, what’s the problem here?
Huh?
Otherwise, a good article.
Nice article.
It means nothing.
Restraining the suspect on his or her abdomen (prone restraint) is a common tactic in ExDS situations, and the white paper used by the MPD instructs the officers to control the suspect until paramedics arrive.
...
Well, were the paramedics called as Floyd was being restrained?
This description supports a charge of torture. Otherwise, the MPD policy clearly and succinctly describes that force must be discontinued when the suspect in custody is no longer actively resisting. Chauvin was a dirty cop.
I call BS on this tome.
But nothing more.
