Wow, I bet CNN ignores the video.
The Washington Post has already jumped on it and spinning It like a top. It popped up on the iPhone news feed so I checked it out.

MINNEAPOLIS — Newly released video of George Floyd's fatal interaction with Minneapolis police shows that medical personnel waited nearly three minutes to perform chest compressions in an attempt to revive the handcuffed man who had been pinned down on a Minneapolis street until he lost consciousness in May. The body camera footage captured by two of the four officers charged in Floyd’s May 25 death was released Monday by order of Hennepin County Judge Peter A. Cahill, who is overseeing the criminal case over Floyd’s death. The Minneapolis Police Department had previously declined to release body camera footage from the officers, citing the ongoing investigation.

The two approximately 30-minute clips present an even more desperate scene than previously depicted in bystander and surveillance video of the deadly Memorial Day encounter, which has fueled widespread protests calling for police reform and transformed national conversations around race, social justice and police brutality.
quote:
In Lane’s video, the officer pulls a gun on Floyd within 15 seconds of encountering him in a parked vehicle, without announcing who he is or what he is investigating. Lane’s move prompts the 46-year-old Black man to cry, panic and beg officers not to kill him. Floyd appears visibly shaken and terrified of police, whom he repeatedly calls “sir” and “Mr. Officer.” Floyd appears increasingly anxious and afraid of the officers and complains of being claustrophobic as they try to place him in a squad car, a move that he fights against. The footage shows Floyd saying at least 25 times that he cannot breathe while he is restrained, telling the police he had been diagnosed with covid-19.

Some Cliffs:
-Floyd literally says "I didn't do nothing," and so does his female companion
-He starts saying weird shite about "this is how I got shot", how his mama just died (which happened 2 years earlier) and then admits having COVID
-The cops immediately recognize that he's on drugs and he's actually foaming at the mouth. He explains the foaming by saying he was "hooping" earlier. Perhaps meaning basketball.
-He takes forever to get in handcuffs, and keeps begging not to be shot. The cops have to tell him 20 times they're not gonna shoot him, and even his woman tells him to stop resisting
-Despite being removed from a car minutes earlier, he says he can't get into the squad car because he's claustrophobic. He asks to sit in the front, then asks if someone can sit in the back with him, then if they can crack a window. A cop tells him that they'll crack a window.
-He begins his heart attack, the cops call an ambulance immediately. They sit him down on a curb, then he asks to lay down. They let him. He starts saying he can't breathe here (before anyone restrains him).
-The cops know the deal, and are even worried about the "excited delirium" that's about to take place (fentanyl overdose), and (I think) this is when Chauvin starts restraining him on the ground. Conveniently, this is when the filming brigade shows up and starts heckling.

no joke. We’d have dead people all over the mats every time someone gets tired of a new spazzy guy and decides to ride them through a round. I was so disappointed when dumbfrick Jon Jones came out immediately with his SJW reactionary stance because I know he knows that George Floyd didn’t die from knee on neck

He looks way different from the picture the media circulated. Drugs took its toll on him. Also trying to figure why a second autopsy was never performed in regards to the Fentanyl amounts in his bidy.

George Floyd did not deserve to consume another breath of oxygen 8 minutes into this. The media outrage over this piece of shite tells you all you need to know. The entire saga was nothing but political rhetoric to change the national narrative.
Yet the media and BLM are silent about the black Mississippi State Trooper (a genuine good man) who was recently murdered by a few pre-med students.
