When I was about 14 my old man took us to that island, showed me and my brother Al Capone's cell, and looked at us to say, "My sons, this is how you know that Justice reigns supreme in our great country."

Thanks Dad

Logic says no way. It would have been a long shot even in favorable conditions. The only way I say yes is if they had some sort of outside help.

Nope. You ever swim in 51 degree water with a huge undertow and swells?

Idk what yea it was. Definitely in the 60’s my grandpa actually took a tour of the island as an army general. I think they had a satellite base there. It was not a noteworthy trip but the man detested criminals so there’s that.

64 years later and I still don’t care. Do you think George Floyd died of drugs or because of the cops? This is more relevant.

Derail aside, I'll answer your question: Probably a bit of both. If you're close to enduring a fentanyl OD a knee to the neck for 9 minutes prolly ain't helping much.

George Floyd made a series of terrible choices that directly led to his death.
