I think hindsight is 20/20. In that situation he followed his training. I can only fault him for not releasing the suspect once he went unconscious and the other officer couldn't find a pulse. That said, in testimony from the state's witnesses we heard that it was not unheard of to restrain a suspect in medical distress until paramedics arrive, and suspects can regain consciousness and cause trouble if not properly restrained.
The narrative that this cop wanted to kill somebody that day is insane. It has already cost lives and millions of dollars in property damage. Fake news is the enemy of the people.
I think Chauvin was negligent in his duty but absolutely not a murderer
