Not after they stop breathing.

My understanding is that's not what happened.

Have you watched all the body cam videos? There is one that is like an hour and some odd minutes long and shows multiple different body cams from different angles. They show the first angle to dramatize it. The second angle you can see they do check Floyd's pulse and stuff at the demand of the public onlookers. Yet, at that point would have been a fantastic time to let off the neck roll Floyd over and lean his head back and open the airway up more. In my opinion Floyd was likely going to die from the drugs but the perception of force could have been mitigated.

I have watched pretty much all of the footage, and I agree that he should have taken his knee off several minutes earlier.

I also saw Floyd having trouble breathing when nobody was touching him earlier.

And the coroner's reports indicate that Chauvin's actions were not the immediate or proximate cause of death.

I think Chauvin should walk away a free man based on the evidence I've seen. I've no confidence that will happen, but absent new evidence, that's how I'd vote.

A free man on the charges for sure. A workplace reprimand , DEFINITELY at the very least.

I don't think Chauvin should be guilty of any criminal action but I do believe he should have paid time off with counseling and reprimanded on the use of force. I think you and I both know though they will likely to throw him under the bus though to keep Minneapolis from burning to the ground. OPTICS OPTICS OPTICS when it comes to politics perception is everything. Truth be dammed.

I agree with this line of thinking, but suspect they might have deliberately overcharged him because they want the ensuing riots once he's acquitted.

Keith Ellison is a full on Marxist Revolutionary.

Now you are seeing the light. They have wanted this for a long long time. The UN and the Globalist elites have been wanting to disarm America for a very long time and set up shop here. Cameras on every corner and electronic leashes on anyone that can resist their Satanic cult. And yes , it is a cult they do take kids they do protect each other and they do look at the rest of us as cattle.
