His fentanyl range was definitely enough to be lethal.

Okay, here's my guess, and I think it's pretty solid.
It's pretty well known by now that Chauvin and Floyd worked in the same club.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/derek-chauvin-nightclub-george-floyd-security-shifts-el-nuevo-rodeo-minneapolis/
The former owner, Maya Santamaria, said that Chauvin worked there over 17 years and Floyd for at least one, mostly during their "Urban Nights" where they had black promoters and talent. Chauvin knew probably everything that was going on and there was probably quite a bit of drugs trading hands in the club (and who knows what else). There were several shootings outside the club and the club's license was continually close to being cancelled. (Chauvin probably being the one saving it from being cancelled.)
Floyd had a violent, criminal history, mostly in drugs:

This would usually bar him from being security at a club, UNLESS, he was there to hustle drugs. He was "a rapper" in DJ Screw's crew of Houston rappers (DJ Screw died of lean and other drugs) and had set up his own little squad in Minneapolis.
This is where several things in the video get weird. THe 911 caller says that Floyd appeared drunk. In his released autopsy, https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/6936162/Autopsy-2020-3700-Floyd.pdf he has no ethanol in his system, but he does have a good amount of THC and FENTANYL in his system, enough for an overdose.
Here's my theory. Floyd was working at another club as well, and Corona probably cleared him out as he was getting no pay anymore, and no drug money for at LEAST two months. The police (at least Chauvin, who was probably dirty) needed to get rid of him for some reason (he was going to snitch, he had told someone, etc.) and so they had one of his crew provide him with weed laced with fentanyl. The crew member then gives him a counterfeit $20 to buy something.
The fentanyl hits him on the way, and Floyd, probably confused because stimulants were his thing (he was arrested for coke and had meth in his system) gets arrested by the cops. Floyd then collapses and dies while the cops purposefully conduct the hit. If you watch the video, the ambulance that arrives is commandeered by POLICE and not EMTs, who would have probably hit him with naxolone and saved him.
Plus, Chauvin has a nice house in MN, but also one in TX and FL! Kind of rich for a normal police officer.
He had Covid-19..and he was jacked up on drugs
>He had Covid-19..and he was jacked up on drugs
Yeah, I think the high amount of fentanyl was what killed him. It had nothing to do with blood going to his head. His heart and lungs shut down.
It is certainly possible.
i havent read the autopsy to see how severe his covid 19 was...but it would effect those areas and make it more vulnerable.
I do know that shady clubs hire shady cops for protection, payoff, and intel
That connection might be real, don’t know about the rest but it seems largely unsupported without more information
He died with COVID-19, so, to be perfectly honest, I don’t know why his death wasn’t counted as a COVID-19 fatality. Everyone else who died with it was, so why is he different?
This country is coming apart at the seams right before our eyes.
I think your scenario is correct, but needs one more element to get closer to fact: the FBI was involved here. There is documentation (in a Conservative Treehouse post, let me find it) in public that the FBI had CI’s in that night club. My guess is that Chauvin was a CI, or was FBI undercover.
The astonishing thing is that George Floyd lived until the cops got there. He couldn't even figure out how to start his car.
Pure fantasy, and you bring this crap (and the attendant liability) to Free Republic?
Labeling it as conjecture does not shield you (personally) from liability for alleging both Floyd and Chauvin were involved in dealing drugs.
I think somebody deliberately slipped him a phony $20 bill after giving him a overdose of Fentanyl to make him act out, ((I've watched one literally tear-up a hospital ER, (including the personnel) and resist arrest)).
Now we have global protests, complete with looting and even a headline that the POPE is even having to pray for America because things are so terrible in our land!!!
Would he just accept drugs and $20 for someone who wasn’t his regular source?
Scott Adams has a recent episode you need to see: https://twitter.com/ScottAdamsSays/status/1267599019305349120?s=20
Upshot: fentanyl deaths tend to come from the user passing out, and unable to reflexively gasp for air if they hinder their own airway (experienced users get into a comfortable safe position, _then_ use and pass out).
Cop likely didn’t recognize he was suffocating because, when passed out, George did not exhibit the usual gasping-for-breath reflex.
Doesn’t excuse the cop’s behavior & negligence, but does explain why the consequence.
I also noted that _before_ George was on the ground, he reportedly complained of difficulty breathing. I wonder if he was already dying of combined problems before the police took him down; they just had no training to recognize & cope with such an edge case.
“ Chauvin probably being the one saving it from being cancelled.”
Stopped there. Idiotic assumption.
Ping
Or Floyd was the CI.
So he decided to hit a speed ball, AND had the ‘rona.
He was going to be dead by sundown no matter what.
Not typically for nightclubs. Plenty of security guys at night clubs aren't exactly saints. Sometimes connections with relatively unsavory parts of society are important to help the club avoid issues.
The inside guys surely know the detail cop working outside, since everyone on the security team works together.
The club appears like it catered mostly to a Mexican clientele. That may add some additional aspects to the story.
