Well then clearly putting a knee on his next for nearly 10 minutes and even after he’s unconscious and bystanders are begging for them to check his pulse was the wrong option to then choose.

in that report... the deceased intentionally fell down several times... apparently in an attempt to resist arrest (remember... this is the report detailing why Chauvin's being charged... not something from the defense)

so now all of a sudden he can't breath while standing?

sounds like another ruse to resist arrest

Title of the thread is incorrect.

It’s specifically (probably) not traumatic asphyxiation. Where you compress the thorax until someone is dead.

Asphyxia is still completely on the table. And likely from the coroner’s statement.

I just know that the looters are going to return the shite that they stole when they hear the news.

I would not be able to find intent on the part of the officer.
Well he was charged with 3rd degree murder, which includes:
quote:

Whoever, without intent to effect the death of any person, causes the death of another by perpetrating an act eminently dangerous to others and evincing a depraved mind, without regard for human life, is guilty of murder in the third degree and may be sentenced to imprisonment for not more than 25 years.
So it seeks the charge is appropriate for what you described.

So he had difficulty breathing before being restrained


Are you saying 3 guys decided to compress the chest of and squeeze the neck of a man already having breathing trouble, then Remained there as he begged for life and finally died and went limp? Almost sounds intentional.

Dying is quite the finishing touch to that clever ruse.

Obviously.

Heart attack caused by panic caused by restricted oxygen.

Same thing that killed Reggie White, sans the murderous fricking thug cop.

It doesn't matter. Hypoxia can cause a heart attack and other problems. If he took drugs that affected his respiratory function, the knee on his neck could have exacerbated the hypoxia. If the knee on his neck was a contributing factor in his eventual death, the ex-officer is still guilty of murder.

The fricking report says the knee contributed to his death
quote:

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. 
The defendant had his knee on Mr. Floyd’s neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds in total. Two minutes and 53
seconds of this was after Mr. Floyd was non-responsive. Police are trained that this type of restraint with a
subject in a prone position is inherently dangerous. 
Defendant is in custody.

Truth. They always use this. Hell the cops are usually out of breath as well.

Let's put it plainly. If the cause of death is determined to essentially be a heart attack, and not a form of asphyxiation, will you still blame the police?

I don’t care if you believe it’s true.

You want Chauvin to be innocent?

I find it highly unlikely that a person dies in police custody complaining of not being able to breathe and that they just happened to have confounding medical events at exactly that moment while they are in the vulnerable position of prone restraint that we know can kill people.

Fine his actions has the consequence of death. And the cop’s actions had a consequence of a murder charge.

Since the cop’s actions, as started in the report, contributed to his death, then why wouldn’t the cop bare the blame for his direct contribution? That’s why he was charged with murder afterall.
