Derek Chauvin (The murderer of #GeorgeFloyd) has just officially been convicted of murder by the grand jury, finally justice!
@ChristiJunior LAWL, ok buddy.. i mean the dude was literally caught red handed murdering someone.. The guy was dead (or at least unconscious) and the man continued to strangle him for another 4 minutes and physically stopped other cops from checking on his safety... There is no sane reason anyone could side witht he cop on this.
@coolboymew
Who said anything about relaxing. Once he was immobile you cuff his feet and hands, no relaxing needed. There is no excuse for strangling a man for 4 minutes after he is unconscious.
@ChristiJunior
He strangled him with his knee, yea he strangled him.. and even once he was told by his fellow officer he didnt have a pulse (effectively was dead) he continued to sit on either his neck or chest for another 3 minutes and refused to let his fellow officer help him when asked...
now ay you can justify it, none.
Incorrect, in fact you dont even need a knee, you can use a rope or pretty much any means that constrict the neck and prevents breathing. Dictionary definition of the word strangle:
squeeze or constrict the neck of (a person or animal), especially so as to cause death.
His head was tilted to the side and his knee was on the neck from the side... yes of course its possible.. In fact much worse as it can cut off blood flow to the brain as well (that is were the artery that supplies the brain is at)..
Your also arguing a pretty stupid point.. his knee was on his neck and he was also sitting on his back to compress his chest for most of that. Its pretty obvious that would cause anyone to struggle to breath.. combine that with the fact that a fellow officer (who are trained in being able to take a persons pulse in their CPR training) clearly stated chauvin had no pulse (effectively was dead) and Chauvin continued to sit on him and compress his chest and neck for 3 minutes after being told the man's heart stopped.
There is literally no way you can justify his actions or intent, none.
Not the least bit true. They went over this in some detail in the case. When officers in the past have used this same hold on other people 16 percent of the time they lost consciousness, and several doctors have stated that should the hold be continued after someone looses consciousness it would result in death (luckily most officers have the good sense to stop once the person passes out).
Moreover... it doesnt even matter. As I said once Floyd's heart stop, which chauvin was told was the case by his fellow officer who took his pulse, he continued to strangle him for almost 3 minutes longer (only reason he stopped is because the EMT insisted).
No matter what slimy tactics you want to use to justified what happened the fact that he was sitting on his chest and the man's heart stopped and he prevented people, including a fellow officer, who tried to help resuscitate him shows he had every intent for Floyd to die. Everything else is noise.
Threatening them,a re you kidding me, no one in that crowd threatened to do a damn thing. Not sure what the hell you are smoking.
The doctors for the prosecution were lying hacks, so their opinions are worthless.
Would have been nice if the people surrounding the police weren't threatening them so they could have had control of the situation.
