Agreed, but if George was handcuffed lying face down on the street, why did three police officers conclude they needed to pin George to the pavement?

George was not going anywhere with those handcuffs on!

Why not? He can still run, kick, head-butt, and bite. He was a very strong muscular guy.

He did not start lying face down on the street.

It appears that is where he ended up after violently resisting the police officers attempting to put him in the police car for some period of time.

We have not seen that video, but I expect some part of it, at least, with show up eventually.

The officers treated George very respectfully. He goes out of the frame of a video, walking pretty much on his own, in handcuffs. The next we see him, his down next to the police car, with three officers holding him down.

Something happened in between, as alluded to by the officer who said: "We just spent 10 minutes trying to get him into the car."

It is during that period, when the officers called for an ambulance.

Agreed.

Was George originally wearing a shirt?
George is lying on the ground without a shirt.
Did George’s shirt get ripped up while he was resisting arrest.

Was the effort to resist arrest, plus the drugs in his system, plus a pre-existing condition, all contribute to his death?
