That restraint hold is not why Floyd died.
The fentanyl in his system killed him and the general emotional stress of being arrested possibly contributed.
Eleven minutes of oxygen dep wasn't a contributor?
Sounds like the Republican side is trying to overcome what they claim the Left exploited in this encounter.
Floyd wasn't armed. The probable cause to pull him over,using three units, was that he allegedly used a counterfeit bill to pay for something.
Also, under a lethal dose of Fentanyl, there would be no bodily threat afforded by Floyd.
He was claustrophobic. That condition makes fear of the confines of the cramped back seat of the police car understandable. However, waiting for a wagon, a van, would not necessitate an officer putting half his body weight on Floyd's throat/neck for 11 minutes.
That bible reading man,(why is that relevant?) , is thinking others can negate the priors report that entered on the record?
After,after mind you, all police responsible for his death per the merits of the case,including the initial coroners report that included identifying the Fentanyl in Floyd's system, were deliberated as evidence and let for a guilty verdict of all accused parties.
This is making news long after the cases are over with. And the Fentanyl charge,it being the actual CoD, was addressed in all cases. By coroner's.
This appears as the Rights effort to close the barn door after the black horses made their own news after the verdicts.
And a bible reading man's opinion is just another Republicans opinion.
