Not me, the Minnesota medical examiner. He's the one who said that kneeling on his neck was a contributing factor to Floyd's death. Take any one of the three factors out and Floyd likely doesn't die. Add the three together and he's a dead man. So since the cops were responsible for one of the factors then they're responsible for his death.
The medical examiner said there was no sign of neck trauma or asphyxiation.
He then said the opposite. Was he pressured?
Was he wrong the first time or the second time?
You give an accurate analysis. You need to go into the legal field.
Let’s say this was Michael Moore who they pulled out of his limo. They didn’t realize he was suffering from a diabetic severe hypoglycemia. Moore, who never expected to be treated like that, puts up a fuss and gets handcuffed and moved over to the squad car. About that time Moore has gone ballistic and starts kicking at them as he is thrown into the back seat with his handcuffs giving severe pain. He is then thrown out onto the pavement with on officer to his feet, another with knees to his chest and another with a knee to his neck. Hypoglycemia is a strange term, so I looked it up:
“Extreme low blood sugar levels which can also cause a variety of problems within your central nervous system. Early symptoms include weakness, lightheadedness, and dizziness. Untreated, severe low blood sugar can be very dangerous. It can result in seizures, loss of consciousness, or death.”
So, with a knee on Michael Moore’s carotid artery, restricting the low BLOOD SUGAR flow to his brain, what would you expect would happen? Michael Moore passing a huge blast of gas and knocking the police unconscious from methane poisoning? Would you say Moore’s obesity triggered his death? I think the technique of knee to the neck should be a basis of a lawsuit and justification for MURDER charges as much as I dislike him. All of Hollywood would demand it.
