I wrote about all of that here. But now there is a new bombshell: on Tuesday, prosecutors who have charged Derek Chauvin with murder released a document that suggests that he had nothing to do with Floyd’s death, which in all likelihood resulted from a drug overdose. Not only that, prosecutors have known that fact for months. Former state and federal prosecutor George Parry has the story. It was linked earlier as a Pick, but I think deserves more attention:
Former state and federal prosecutor George Parry has the story. It was linked earlier as a Pick, but I think deserves more attention:
At 7:30 p.m. on May 31, 2020, prosecutors “met” online with Dr. Andrew Baker, Chief Medical Examiner of Hennepin County, to discuss Floyd’s toxicology report.
The memo of that meeting is embedded at the link.
So there they were, staring at the just-received and damning toxicology report that blew to smithereens the whole prosecution theory that the police had killed Floyd. To their undoubted dismay, Dr. Baker, the chief medical examiner, had to concede that at 11 ng/mL, Floyd had “a fatal level of fentanyl under normal circumstances.” He also conceded that the fentanyl overdose “can cause pulmonary edema,” a frothy fluid build-up in the lungs that was evidenced by the finding at autopsy that Floyd’s lungs weighed two to three times normal weight.
This is consistent with Officer Kueng’s observation at the scene that Floyd was foaming at the mouth and, as found at autopsy, that his lungs were “diffusely congested and edematous.”
In other words, like a drowned man, Floyd’s lungs were filled with fluid. And that was the obvious and inescapable reason why Floyd kept shouting over and over again that he couldn’t breathe even when he was upright and mobile.

George Floyd killed george floyd
RE: He also had “severe” heart disease and his main arteries were blocked 75%-90%
He was also CoVid-19 positive, although we don’t know if by the time of the arrest, he had recovered or was asymptomatic.
CCP Bug followed by CCP Drug.
He did not commit suicide...... oops wrong thread
George Floyd did.
Floyd is ultimately responsible for his death by his actions.
The officer’s actions were inappropriate and possibly a contributing factor as adding stress the Floyd’s overtaxed system. But the charges and hoopla in this particular case seem overreach.
Floyd had tested Covid positive 2 months prior. But if it can cause lasting heart complications in a young, asymptomatic professional athlete, it certainly can to a man with Floyd’s level of cardiac disease and drug abuse.
Watched it, concise, well done.
Thank you.
Send this article to Rush, Jeanine Pirro, and all the Freepers who rushed to judgment. That cop got the same treatment as George Zimmerman.
He can be caught on more than that.
Chavin’s legal problem is that a legit case can be made for premeditated attempted murder. There was no reason for anyone to be on the guy and his refusal to dislodge or administer CPR was inexcusable. His motivation for doing so is certainly questionable.
Thanks.
I learned more about politics from that video than all of my public education through to 12th grade.

The thing that triggered these riots was the MSM reporting of the Floyd demise and spiking the facts behind his condition at the time. Because of that getting those facts out are desperately needed

The democrat controlled media racist killing reporting was a deliberate miss portraying of the six foot seven inch 200 plus pound Floyd as an innocent black who was being forceably restrained because he was black not because he was resisting arrest.When He was legitimately arrested for passing a counterfeit $20 dollar bill he was resisting arrest and was a threat if not secured. But the media was not mentioning his size or reporting that Floyd was removed from a squad car because he was acting up under the influence of drugs and also later was discovered to have COVID 19. Which suggests his physical condition may have led to his death which the media turned into a murder change and a charge of serious abuse by police because of police efforts that were tried to get him who under control.

If Obama had urged blacks to believe in the justice system and comply with the police would we be confronting his use of creating racial division now ?
The results of politically induced miss reporting incidents where blacks have resisted legitimate arrest began to be used earlier during and after the post Zimmmerman trial, then on to the Ferguson episode. Obama’s abuse of the “Bully Pulpit” which seemed to promote resistance to legitimate arrest led to black gangs attacking non blacks found innocently traversing black neighborhoods and to a score of murders or life changing injuries and later attacks of theft and vandalism on local businesses as well as attacks and murders of police officers during that period
I believe it was Lee Harvey Oswald, not the grassy knoll theory.
Mr fentayl
I call him “St. George of the immaculate incarceration”.
Floyd killed Floyd.
Agreed.
