“Would it not be scientifically possible to cut off blood supply the brain by applying excessive pressure to the carotid artery?”
Do you think that’s consistent with the foothold and Chauvin’s response?

Now that's not nice. Answer a question with a question. lol
I will then answer my own question before addressing yours. Yes, it is scientifically possible to cut off blood flow to the brain by applying pressure to the carotid artery located in the neck.
Can you facilitate the death of a human being by restricting blood flow to the brain by applying excessive pressure to the carotid artery located in the neck..yep!
My take on this. Floyd's a thug. He contributed to his own death by ingesting Percocet’s, Fentanyl and Methanphetamine.
Furthermore, if Floyd would have been a law abiding citizen and not attempt to pass off a fake $20 bill, the cops would not have been called, he would not have been arrested and would not have a had a cop placing his knee on the dudes carotid artery...which just happens to be located in the neck. lol
That said, the (ex) officer should have lightened up and removed his knee from Floyd's neck. It was over the top.
Floyd was handcuffed and under officers control. By continuing to apply pressure to Floyd's neck for an extended period and having Floyd which was already under pulmonary stress by being under the influence of substances that contribute to pulmonary arrest and death, laying on his stomach, hands behind his back also made it difficult to breath.
My prediction. Officer Chauvin will be acquitted of murder. His offense would likely be seen as manslaughter by the jury. He will never serve as an officer again. When the jury comes back with an acquittal, the bone heads will again trash the cities.
