It Still Matters That The George Floyd Prosecutions Were Corrupted By Racial Politics

Dr. Roger Mitchell, the then-medical examiner and Deputy Mayor for D.C., should be indicted, tried, convicted, and sentenced for giving aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States. The man should forever be denigrated as a traitor to the United States.

If you actually can’t breath, you are unable to say, much less shout, “I can’t breath.”

The knee-restraint Chauvin used was taught by the Minneapolis Police Dept and was in their instruction manual given to MPD cops

“would anyone know the name George Floyd if Derek Chauvin was black and George Floyd was white”

Absolutely not!

First of all, a force perpendicular to the spine puts a shear load on the spine, not a compression load, at least in a strict sense. The amount of force on the spine would be a function of the the amount of Chauvin’s body weight was supported by the left knee. Did the prosecution or defense show an analysis of how much load could have been on the left knee and thus the spine? Chauvin’s body weight had four possible support points, both knees and both feet. From what I was able to see from the body cam videos, the feet were in a position to support a load, as well as the right knee. The hands did not appeared to be significantly involved (but I didn’t watch all of the available videos). Slight changes to the position of Chauvin’s torso could likely cause a significant change to the force exerted by the left knee. The point I’m trying to make is that it is doubtful most of Chauvin’s weight was on the left knee.
