Shocking new surveillance video appears to show George Floyd in a violent struggle with Minneapolis police before his death.

Floyd can't be seen in the footage, but one cop can be seen leaning through the back door and visibly struggling with him.

The clip was posted by activist Shaun King, who wrote: 'BREAKING: Just got this new video. It’s all coming together. Police were in the car beating the sh** out of George Floyd. One stands watch, while the others attacked him.'

Later, white officer Derek Chauvin was captured on video by a bystander kneeling on Floyd's neck as he begged for air.

Floyd, 46, fell unconscious and died, and Chauvin, 44, has since been charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter, which are filed in cases of unintentional death.

Chauvin also was accused of ignoring another officer who expressed concerns about Floyd, a black man, as he lay handcuffed on the ground.

“The ME stated that the COD was his heart and nothing to do with ASPHYXIATION “

He didn’t state the COD. He never mentioned asphyxiation.

Being snide isn't necessary. I posted what I read and then asked a question which has not received an answer. I have not given any kind of opinion on Mr Floyd. Your snark was uncalled for.

USA Today reported:

Fired Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was arrested Friday on charges of third-degree murder and manslaughter after Floyd’s death. A bystander’s video caught more than eight minutes of Chauvin’s knee pinning Floyd’s neck as the suspect lay on the ground and pleaded for help before eventually passing out.

So, he did not die at the scene, it was later determined that he died of a heart attack, and not strangulation or anything to do with pressure on his neck.

He was picked up at the scene with a stretched then moved to the ambulance, with his head uncovered. As long as he had an airway, and a heartbeat, the officers behaved correctly.

Having 7 years experience as an EMT, and having run Ambulance for as many years, once in the ambulance, he would have been given Oxygen, the hospital would be contacted, If he needed fluids a paramedic could do so intravenously, and then he would be monitored on the way to the hospital.

Are you blind or just dumb? It states the death was not the result of Asphyxia or Strangulation.

LOL! EMT’s arrive at the scene and Administer no first aid while slowly loading him into the bus.

He was dead!

And the COD has not been published so you are deliberately posting fake news.

You have moved from asphyxiation to asphyxia.

One more step. TRAUMATIC ASPHYXIA.

Now Google traumatic asphyxia.

Traumatic asphyxia. No mention of asphyxiation.

Traumatic asphyxia, or Perthes’s syndrome, is a medical emergency caused by an intense compression of the thoracic cavity, causing venous back-flow from the right side of the heart into the veins of the neck and the brain.

Again, he did not die from a knee to the neck. Stop moving the goal posts. You know damn well that autopsy is not good for the prosecution that’s why the family’s attorney wants an independant one done.

You could be right, here is what I was reading

https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2020/05/by-an-amazing-coincidence-george-floyd-had-a-fatal-heart-attack-while-derek-chauvin-was-kneeling-on-or-very-near-his-neck

Perhaps I was premature, but with his existing condition, its clear that he did not die as many argued here today, my money is that he died of a heart attack, aggravated by this situation, which had he been compliant, might have extended his life, but eventually, and probably sooner than later, would have killed him.

Can you provide a link to that unedited video you mentioned of him
standing up and saying he can’t breathe? I’ve looked and looked.
The only videos I can find are different angle videos of the suspect
on the ground.

IT SAYS IN THE PRELIMIARY AUTOPSY REPORT HE DIED FOR UNDERLYING HEART CONDITION.
Even the media reported that fact.

You’re just an emotional moron, and I’m done.
