He didn't kill Floyd. The Fentanly killed him. How can it be manslaughter when it was an accidental suicide?

We all saw the video. That's why Derek Chauvin is in prison today. His job is not to be the executioner. He botched the handling of a career criminal. It's pretty straightforward.

Yes, we did, and what it showed is that Chauvin didn't kill him. Nothing Chauvin did was fatal.

That's why Derek Chauvin is in prison today.

Yes, the video is why Chauvin is in prison, because dumb people see the video and think Chauvin is causing what is wrong with Floyd. They associate Chauvin's actions with Floyd's death, and they do this because they are simple minded and do not understand that Floyd is dying of a drug overdose.

His job is not to be the executioner.

Well he wasn't. Floyd killed himself by taking Fentanyl. Chauvin just unfortunately had to be the poor sap holding him down as he died. Had Chauvin simply left him in the police car to die, Chauvin would have likely been fine. He wouldn't have been prosecuted at all.

He botched the handling of a career criminal.

What was it that Chauvin did wrong? Sure, he could have been a little more gentle and sympathetic, but Floyd was dying before Chauvin arrested him.
