This isn't even new information. Chauvin has TWO knees. His left knee was across GF's neck, pushing his head against the pavement. That's not even possible without also being across the shoulder.
Where was his right knee? Nobody's paying attention to that. It seems to shift around. We can't tell how much weight was distributed to his toes, or which knee. Neither can you tell by looking from the top where the pressure really is under just one knee. Chauvin is only 140#.
None of this matters. Weight on the back affects the heart. Staying there over 9 minutes has always been the problem. Nobody's saying getting GF in that position in the first place was a problem. (The LT Friday tried to, but that can apparently be proven false via the Police training manual; that should have everything he said thrown out)
I think defense has to establish that cops flipping GF over onto his back to start chest compressions would require taking the handcuffs off, and that was just too risky. Waiting for the paramedics to arrive made more sense, they were only 2 blocks away from the hospital.
We'll see. More experts on Police use of force coming up, then medical experts. Then whoever defense wants to call as a witness. Still a long way to go ...
Seems like nobody agrees with your "assessment" of what happened. So good job typing that wall of text so we can all laugh at you. You're Just another doomer, dooming and glooming. ðŸ˜
