Is it the general consensus of the board that had Floyd not encountered the police that day that he would have probably died later that night from an overdose?

that seems to be general consensus of this thread, but it is currently contrary to the evidence and testimony of the case so far

No and here is why. Had Floyd not encountered the police he wouldn't have ate the stash of pills he had all at once. He also wouldn't have flipped out.

Would guess not, probably more of the opinion he wouldn't have eaten more pills when cops walked up, went excited delirium fought cops and OD'd

fair enough question...

I don't know if Floyd would have swallowed all his pills at once if it weren't for police trying to send him back to jail...probably not the rapid intake, doesn't fit "recreational intake standards"... I'd have to ask AMS...what druggies do

that being said, Floyd was rushed to the hospital twice the month before for taking too many similar shaped "pills"

same drug dealer
same dirty drugs
same habits, same addiction
same results?

Look I get it, the knee doesn't look good, that's why we're here discussing the case

but I can say after seeing all the videos, learning what Floyd was doing that day, his tendencies, all of it, there is no way I am sending the Police officer to jail for murder

My thoughts are before any negative thing happening, the cops asked GF if he was on anything. If he simply would have said yes, and they knew, EMS would have been there. Instead, he said no, then resisted officers. They asked him many times. It was to figure out what to do, but Floyd resisted.

Would GF be spending life in prison if alive? Repeat offender, resisting, fighting law enforcement, passing fake note, etc? I say yes.

He may not have died at all that day had he not:

A. committed a crime
B. resisted arrest
C. Ingested the amount and type of drugs he had
D. Had numerous preexisting health conditions (including COVID)
E. Exhibited signs and symptoms of EX-DS which is deadly

He also could've easily overdosed, as he had done multiple times in the very recent past.

The problem lies with PROVING Chauvin solely caused his death and should be held responsible personally. So far, nothing has proven that he did beyond any sort of reasonable doubt.

It serves to remind the likes of AMS and those that formed their opinions off the first video released - Chauvin is innocent until PROVEN guilty.

There has been absolutely nothing to prove his guilt, and only more doubt of his guilt raised.
