Videos by total strangers are what I instantly believe from my
comfy home .
I believe every video from total
strangers and they have no agenda .
I wonder In the china virus era I wonder why CPR is not given to strangers ?
That is all the evidence I need to jump to
all knowing decision .
I bet that drugged up ex con was being lovely to that Asian market staff
he tried twice to push a fake 20 .
A huge federal offense the SS handles.
Wow .
I was just pointing out the remarkable and stark differences in the autopsies. Nothing “artful and deceptively selective” about that simple comparison.
I marvel at how two different doctors could arrive at such different conclusions on the same body.
It’s not rocket science. If you don’t want to end up in police custody, then don’t engage in illegal activities. If you are detained, do what the cops ask without resisting. If you have an underlying heart condition, then don’t take illicit drugs. If you are an ex-con, keep your nose clean in the future so you don’t return to prison.
I think the cop was negligent in his application of the otherwise MPD approved method to fight prisoner resistance and he used poor judgment as far as determining whether GF was in real distress. It resulted in a death for which he should be held accountable. And he is. He’s in jail, on suicide watch, which some FReepers are positively giddy about. I think this whole thing is a shame, but GF and Chauvin both share responsibility here. We’ll find out to what degree when the trial is over.
3 cops stood around while a handcuffed and unconscious citizen was assaulted for many minutes by another dirty cop. Feel free to defend that. I won’t be.

a fireman came over offering to assist. Dirty cop waved him off. After the ambulance drove off, with Mr. Floyd’s body, it went around the corner and radioed for help. Dirty cop wouldn’t let them start CPR. I wonder which cop peed on the body?
Coronavirus is a joke.
See, when people suggest ‘there were drugs in his system’ those defending a (literal) murderous cop will bleat out ‘how were they supposed to know?’
But then they turn around and make up the idea out of thin air, that the dead man had coronavirus and that they’d inevitably catch it.
Aren’t police cruisers equipped with CPR equipment to protect first responders, you know, ever since the early days of AIDS?
Or are you just making up any excuse you can to cover up for Federal Civil Rights violations (potentially deadly force continued against a handcuffed and unconscious man) as well as 3rd degree murder (not trying CPR when another cop is ON VIDEO telling Mr. Kneecap that the victim does not have a pulse)?
Considering he was full of meth and fentanyl, who knows.
But unlike 99% of the freepers I lke to wait for an investigation to be completed before making a judgement.
You will recall that the coroner initially said there was no asphyxiiation or neck trauma. Was he right then or now?
The defense attornies will have a field day with that.
You don’t need to cry. It will be harder for you to look up the big words with watery eyes.
Did you look up fentanyl intoxication yet?
Do you know what meth on top of that does?
“Now you’re calling it “negligent homicide.””
You need to practice your reading comprehension. All my current comments have NOTHING to do with the knee thing. NOTHING. Read everything again and see if that stands out to you this time around. Come one, a third grader could do this.
Me, neither. I forgot what post that was supposed to go to. Sorry. :)
Read the Statement of Probable Cause against the now-ex-policeman for 3rd degree murder.
In Minnesota, it does not require intent.
There is a 9-minute long uncut, unedited, not-tampered-with video taken from 6 feet away, the whole time the victim is on the ground in handcuffs.
On the video, ONE OF THE POLICEMAN holding down the victim, checks for a pulse, and tells Mr. Kneecap that the victim in cuffs does not have a pulse.
Mr. Kneecap doesn’t check for a pulse himself.
He doesn’t start CPR.
He keeps his knee on the unconscious, DEAD (== no heartbeat) man’s neck for over another 2 minutes.
Common convention is full brain death takes 4 minutes.
This isn’t a Hollywood movie. A man in cuffs, on the ground without a pulse, doesn’t suddenly turn into The Walking Dead and attack you.
At that point a knee on the neck (potentially deadly force) is no longer alllowed; and since the man in cuffs is literally in police custody, they have an affirmative duty under the law to care for him. Unlike someone who merely calls 911.
There’s a word for this in the Minnesota Statutes.
It’s called “Depraved Indifference”.
And it is part of the definition of 3rd degree murder, which in Minnesota does not require intent.
Boy street cops have it so easy .
Monday morning quarter backing from your comfy home is so hard
based on strangers videos .
I have to ask, and please be honest. Have you seen the 9 minute raw video?
If not, I ask, respectfully, that you watch it.
It doesn’t matter what was in his system if he had a criminal history, none of that should matters, if you believe in the rule of law. Mr. Floyd died at the hands of a dirty cop, who was playing with himself, or trying to get a quarter out of his pocket.
I am not a lawyer, but I thought we citizens had constitutional rights that guaranties the Federal Govt can’t fire on us.
I don’t like it that Trump turned the military on his own people.
Your credibility is zero. Your insults are lame. You have absolutely nothing of value to add to the discussion.
Yes I’ve watched it. I’ve watched additional video as well from the store across the street as well as cell phone footage. What’s your point?
It is in fact 3rd degree homicide.
The phrase used in the Minnesota Statute, is “depraved indifference.”
See, the kneecap ex-cop, was told (on video) by another poliiceman helping to hold the victim’s legs, that the victim
DID
NOT
HAVE
A
PULSE
Hear that? Not a BLM member two weeks later,not Geraldo seeking ratings, but a fellow policeman involved in the arrest and restraining the guy.
Mr. Kneecap doesn’t check for a pulse
He doesn’t perform CPR.
He keeps his knee on the guy’s neck for two more minutes.
That’s a cop — a first responder — a 19 year veteran — with CPR training — not doing CPR on a prisoner in his care, after another policeman tells him on the spot, in real time, the guy has no pulse.
That’s “depraved indifference.”
And Perry Mason won’t be able to save him.
Would he be alive today, if he wasn’t passing phoney $20’s?
Actually only 1 cop stood around. He was trying to keep the growing crowd of onlookers at bay. For most of the video 3 cops were on Floyd: one on his legs, one on his back, and Chauvin on his shoulder/neck. Most of the video only shows Chauvin because of the angle. But by all means, swallow the media narrative.
