Yeah. That’s always the dice roll with positional asphyxia.

I am a bit flummoxed that we always pretend this is a brand new thing every time someone dies in police custody like this.

That is until some officer tases the wrong person with an abnormal heart beat or other undiagnosed heart condition and dies.

I can tell you the last thing I'd have been doing if I were Chauvin....placing my knee firmly atop Floyd's neck. My guess is that Chauvin is a hot head and was feeling rage of some sort in that moment. And it just got the best of him and completely clouded his judgment.

In any event, I would imagine he would much prefer that this whole situation never have happened. But that's the "game"....gotta stay firmly in control and on top of all things at all times. I mean, normally what you see in this type situation is officers standing over the arrestee once cuffs are on and the person is belly down.
