KEY MOMENT — Police Chief says Chauvin’s knee was on George Floyd’s shoulder blade, not neck…
well, that provides some doubt.
There was a video of the testimony. The assessment that the knee was on the shoulder blade was based on a very short segment of body cam footage right before they carried George off. He appeared to be unconscious at that point.
It would have been much more effective to supply multiple segments of body cam footage during the entire event.
They did show that the perspective of the body cam directly contradicted the perception of the phone camera that the knee was on George’s neck at that point.
