Yikes...what’s going to happen when this cop walks and then sues the MPD?


quote:

According to the Minneapolis Police Policy Manual, the restraint used was in policy and it also indicates that training is given to officers on the maneuver.


quote:

According to the policy, a neck restraint can be used as a form of a “non-deadly option” and is defined as “compressing one or both sides of a person’s neck with an arm or leg, without applying direct pressure to the trachea or airway (front of the neck).”

Chauvin was applying pressure to the back and side of the neck and not in the front and appeared to be compliant with existing policy.

While restrained and handcuffed? Or during a cuffing


Remember, he was first cuffed without incident at the driver's side of his car. Then led to sit on a bench outside a business on the sidewalk.

Double yikes...

quote:

he autopsy, which was conducted by the Hennepin County Medical Examiner on Tuesday, indicated that being restrained by Minneapolis Police "likely contributed to his death." Although it didn't indicate that it was the only cause.

According to the report, it was "the combined effects of Mr. Floyd being restrained by the police, his underlying health conditions and any potential intoxicants in his system likely contributed to his death." Floyd

Oh yeah. Like, a long time before. He was taken out of his SUV and cuffed at the driver's door and a female passenger taken out at the same time. She wasn't detained. Then they sat him on a bench for a while before leading him to the cruiser you see in the video which was parked across the street and on a cross street. That's where the video went down.

Yeah, i talked to a few Police officers, and all of them claimed this would not be a proper way to subdue a perp. Not at all.

4 cops.1 man in cuffs. And they can’t get him into a police cruiser without having to take him down much less kill him? WTF

When someone dies as a result, it doesn't seem that it is compliant with existing policy.

I got it wrong. They sat him on the ground cuffed not a bench. Thought it was a bench yesterday when I saw it... he's just a tall dude I guess.

Here's the mashup from CCTV and onlooker videos.

In my younger, more rambunctious late teenage years, this technique was used on me. A little “punk in drublic” on my part was what incited it’s use.

Can I use the “it could have been me”?

Im not saying it's right, because it is not.

But if those cops get off on this technicality. It will get incredibly ugly. Like really really bad. I mean riots across the country probably worse than has ever been seen before.

IDK either. You'll even see on the link I posted they had the cruiser door already open for him. Chauvin was one of the late arrivals on the scene in fact and that's what he chose to do from jump street. It's really a peculiar situation on so many levels.

The autopsy said he didn’t die as a result of the maneuver. I’m curious what the police union will say. This may not be as cut and dry as people think. It would help the cop if he didn’t look like a callous a-hole the whole time though.

So if you are trained a maneuver that is taught as non-lethal.


You use it as instructed, and someone dies... you actually think that means the officer is non-compliant?



And as others have said, officers at other departments are not taught this. I dont know if this is actually in their manual or not. But if it is... this is going to get uglier.
