Is your post serious? MURDER???! Are you saying these officers intentionally acted to kill this man? Isn’t INTENT part of proving murder?

When has it become okay with so many on this forum to IGNORE police direction and resist arrest. I guess the same folks calling this “murder’ love all the videos of cops having water dumped on them by the bucketful.

If his Carotid artery was blocked he would have passed out because of a lack of flow to the brain.

There’s what’s called “depraved heart” murder - from Findlaw cuz I don’t trust my memory right now:

“Often the intent to kill (or malice aforethought) element of murder can be satisfied by showing that the defendant showed extreme indifference to human life. These are also known as “depraved heart” murders.

Acting with extreme recklessness and knowing that act is dangerous to human life (i.e., firing through the floor of your third-story apartment) and ending a human life may satisfy this intent element, even if the person never intended to kill anyone. This has been argued in fatal DUI cases in which the driver was far too intoxicated to form any intent.”

If his carotid artery was blocked for 6-7 minutes per the article, he dies.

Kneeling on someone’s neck for several minutes as they plead they can’t breath shows intent. That the man died as a result makes it murder.

He did pass out. And he died.

Were you okay with the saracen that murdered the Australian woman? Or with the murder of Daniel Shaverl?

If you watch the video you can see the restrained man become non-responsive. It is obvious when they place him on the gurney he is already unconscious or dead. I trust that would equate with your bucket of water.

Second degree murder is an action inherently dangerous to human life like firing a gun in a store. Or kneeling on a Neck When the person can’t breathe.

These cops are going down. Firing is the least of their problems.
