I wrote about all of that here. But now there is a new bombshell: on Tuesday, prosecutors who have charged Derek Chauvin with murder released a document that suggests that he had nothing to do with Floyds death, which in all likelihood resulted from a drug overdose. Not only that, prosecutors have known that fact for months. Former state and federal prosecutor George Parry has the story. It was linked earlier as a Pick, but I think deserves more attention:
Former state and federal prosecutor George Parry has the story. It was linked earlier as a Pick, but I think deserves more attention:
At 7:30 p.m. on May 31, 2020, prosecutors met online with Dr. Andrew Baker, Chief Medical Examiner of Hennepin County, to discuss Floyds toxicology report.
The memo of that meeting is embedded at the link.
So there they were, staring at the just-received and damning toxicology report that blew to smithereens the whole prosecution theory that the police had killed Floyd. To their undoubted dismay, Dr. Baker, the chief medical examiner, had to concede that at 11 ng/mL, Floyd had a fatal level of fentanyl under normal circumstances. He also conceded that the fentanyl overdose can cause pulmonary edema, a frothy fluid build-up in the lungs that was evidenced by the finding at autopsy that Floyds lungs weighed two to three times normal weight.
This is consistent with Officer Kuengs observation at the scene that Floyd was foaming at the mouth and, as found at autopsy, that his lungs were diffusely congested and edematous.
In other words, like a drowned man, Floyds lungs were filled with fluid. And that was the obvious and inescapable reason why Floyd kept shouting over and over again that he couldnt breathe even when he was upright and mobile.

Hung jury - this establishes reasonable doubt at a minimum
“....on Tuesday, prosecutors who have charged Derek Chauvin with murder released a document that suggests that he had nothing to do with Floyds death, which in all likelihood resulted from a drug overdose. Not only that, prosecutors have known that fact for months....”
Maybe the prosecutors should be prosecuted.
Blacks can kill whites indiscriminately
Blacks can kill blacks indiscriminately
But Whites cannot kill blacks not matter the circumstances
Has any other media organization picked up this story?
I would think this would fall under the category of:
BREAKING NEWS!
What killed Floyd? A deadly drug cocktail overdose.
No, fentanyl didn’t kill George Floyd - it was the tool, like a gun or knife - he killed himself - suicide by fentanyl.......
So the cops are being tried for killing a man who committed suicide.
I did watch the video. The guy was already contained and restrained and not resisting nor a threat at that point: There was no reason for Chauvin to be physically on him once he was already on the ground. Furthermore, there was no police effort to resuscitate him. Bystanders as well as other officers did try to deter Chauvin.
Everyone’s mind is already made up. Facts will just make them more angry. After all, if the coroner is white, it’s a conspiracy. If he is black, he is an Uncle Tom. They just want to be angry.
George is comfortably numb.
There was no reason to be on a non responsive person for 4 minutes. Please tell me where in this video they administered resuscitation? https://youtu.be/0gQYMBALDXc
The answer is they didn't. I'm not the one with rose colored glasses or bias between the two of us.
