You're misreading the information. CPR wasn't started because GF was alive. He had no pulse and wasn't breathing. He was only pronounced dead later. When CPR was started may prove to be a critical detail in this case. That one cop on video couldn't find a pulse isn't nearly strong enough evidence for this situation. It's possible GF came to in the ambulance and they all joked together, and GF died in the hospital. It's also possible they started CPR in the ambulance and GF breathed his last under Chauvin's knees.

It's not possible to determine that GF's death was completely unrelated to Police contact as you're claiming; we can't reproduce the situation and see. It may be that this is enough to meet "reasonable doubt" re: the standard of evidence in a Court of law. That would be an incredibly flimsy case, and riots would be worse than ever. At least we'd know when to become rooftop Americans. Hopefully the case gets settled with evidence stronger than that, one way or the other.

Spez: we still don't have "the real unedited video." This is 2 bodycams, spliced together. And the edits aren't labeled, but smoothed over.We have no idea what if anything was selectively edited out. That defeats the whole purpose of Police having bodycams. They're required to turn them on at a certain point in a call, and leave them running until a certain point.

We have the beginning from the first Officer on the scene to my satisfaction, but we don't see where his ends or where the other begins. Neither do we know if there are (or were) 2 other bodycam recordings. The angle we have doesn't show some critical details including the placement of Chauvin's knees or GF's front side pinned against the street, or if he was free to move away from that as some here claim.
