‘You Have Expert After Expert Coming Up And Saying It’s Not Drugs’ Reports NBC’s Shaquille Brewster
George Floyd died from an overdose of knee.
It’s almost like you can’t read or listen. This entire segment disputed that claim.
Absolutely
@Jhay Muenster no it reinforced it you tool.
@Jhay Muenster He’s being sarcastic.
@Alvan I think they’re trolling. Which is sad because a man was murdered and they’re making a mockery of it. It’s a sad reality we live in.
I hope Chauvin know he’s going to jail
unjustly
I hope that too. but America has disappointed me many times over the past few years. And I can’t get rid of the feeling that in the end he won’t be punished for what he did. And I don’t want to imagine what will happen then. so let’s hope justice will prevail.
@rizzo170980 i truly understand thats why I keep putting it in the wind , hopefully my prayers travel far and justice will be served
Absolutely he is. No doubt it.
Chauvin kept his knee on Floyd’s neck for an additional 2 minutes after being told that Floyd didn’t have a PULSE!! Why continue to subdue a person without a PULSE?? Chauvin’s intentions were clear!!!
right? It’s not like he was struggling and resisting the entire time. Like he was UNCONCOUS, eyes closed body limp (i’ve seen the video, him crying “help me mommy” has been burned into my mind
Over 3 mins and over additional 2 mins after last breath 😳
Exactly, cause we all know (sarc) people whoss *”heart is failing anyway from Fentanyl”* always have extra strength to resist grown
men kneeling on their necks.
The Chauvin Cheerleaders are the biggest hypocrites ever.
Yes I think it’s abundantly clear that Chauvin wanted to hurt Floyd… and hurt him bad.
Sad thing is when it comes to police killings, the victims are always more often the subject of the trial, rather than the actions of the officer.
@HannibalOrJustRex He would survive if the same pressure was used as Floyd. The amount of pressure that would have to be used to occlude the trachea with the spine in the way would have left obvious spinal trauma not reported in the autopsy
@El Ohwell just wow!
True that
@El Ohwell 🤡
@El Ohwell The knee was on loser Crowder’s BACK not his neck. But you know that, you just trolling
The drugs defense is a paper shield that is getting soak…SIGGGHHHH!!!!!
Soaked with lighter fluid and lot on fire!
Funny how the defense suddenly “finds” a pill in the squad car many months after the murder. It’s almost as if somebody decided some extra “evidence” was needed to create a reasonable doubt.
Not a doubt in my mind where that came from.
Cops planting evidence. Who would have thought? Everyone
I m glad if it was founded in the car The doctor testified it wasn’t founded in his stomach as they claimed all their doing is making themselves (defense) look like fools It don’t take a rocket scientist to know if these vehicles were process for evident this should been caught right away come in jury take note
@Alice Murry Exactly. Seems like the autopsy and toxicology results weren’t “good enough” for the defense. So — many months later — somebody decided they needed to go and “find” some more “evidence”. How convenient when stuff just shows up months later in a spot where somehow nobody ever thought to look.
@Stan Leeger (cough) Bob Kroll (cough, cough).
The defense is all just distraction to get at least one juror. You can see some of the excuses they are going to try. If it took hours for these experts to figure it out…. Other studies…. He’s Big….That scary little Girl…. Well, why didn’t they call for back up? Why did they not follow training and kept him in a dangerous position? etc,etc,etc.
And where was their Narcan? They went into the back of the vehicle to get hobbles
Nothing has changed except videotaping the ***** catchers.
One Dumb Juror, to be accurate….
……face down on the ground and handcuffed? Isn’t that subdued enough?
Maybe they should do an experiment: have strong, healthy, drug free person, like officer Derek Chauvin, prove they can have another 180 lb man rest their knee on his neck for 9 minutes in handcuffs. If Chauvin lives, then he is innocent, if not then Chauvin’s dead body can rot in jail.
@1967sjg If Chauvin is not found guilty, there will be riots, not just by the black community either.
@Newt Tella GREAT! Unfortunately it took so many murders for Americans to stick together. Body cams, two independent business with video that works, numerous cell phone video from unrelated bystanders, professionals trying to render help that went unnoticed. Is a confession really needed to be spoke out of Chavin’s mouth in order for people to believe it. Just ridiculous!!
I’ll do it pick meeeeeeee✊🏾
Don’t forget the 3 stooges pulling on his Handcuffs and holding his trunk & legs.
How about you leave him in public like Mussolini, and others? We shouldn’t pay private prisons for a dead person.
We All Watched George Floyd’s Death!He stayed on him to make sure he was dead!
Sad.
The State’s attorneys haven’t said it out loud, but I will. Not a doubt in my mind that the defense team got hold of evidence from the 2019 traffic stop and planted it in the sealed vehicle in January 2021.
From Dr. Tobin on… brilliant Doctors
Chauven needs to plead guilty and throw himself on the mercy of the court.
He did it. Case closed
Absolutely.
Chauvin agreed to a guilty plea last year but former Attorney General Bill Barr blocked the deal on the grounds that it was too soon and things were developing too quickly.
@Janne A.
Yep.
Barr wouldn’t have had any say if not for Chauvin wanting to spend his time inside a Federal prison as part of his plea deal.
The PROSECUTOR’S did A BANG UP JOB.
Jerry Blackwell is a beast.
They are trying to push the drug use down the jury’s throat. Floyd was murdered. Point Blank. If that was not a cop that did that, it would be a murder charge soooo fast.
No he wasn’t fam you just emotional.
@Jeremiah Ferguson Go away
I’m so handsome! I’m so romantic! I myself can’t manage to most times stand it!
Ok Narcissus.
The rest of us can withstand your charms.
THE DEFERENCE ARE THE ONE’S WHO PLANTED THE DRUGS IN THE VEHICLE.
THAT IS WHAT THEY DOES.. THEY ALWAYS TRY TO OUTSMART US IN EVERYTHING.
THEY ARE GOING TO BE MORE DANGEROUS THAN EVER BUT IS THERE TIME TO FALL..
THE TIME FOR THEIR DISTRACTION HAVE COME.
Imagine if we didn’t have a video camera, the police report will be so much different, the autopsy, everyone testimony will go against George. Ammerica why still this day black people still treated as such?
Everyone Was So Busy Looking At DEREK CHAUVIN KNEE ON GEORGE FLOYD’S NECK, But They Missed ” THE DRUG FILLED SYRINGE, THAT CHAUVIN STUCK IN FLOYD’S NECK, THAT HE PLACED IN HIS LEFT POCKET, SECURED BY HIS LEFT HAND, THAT NEVER LEFT HIS LEFT POCKET!!!
Bottom Line: FIRST DEGREE MURDER!!!
Interesting, and in character terms, and explains the hand in pocket!
A drug ADDICT can function quite normally after taking high doses, but that is not permissible in court. The drugs did compromise any of his vital organ functions. GEORGE WAS NOT DISORIENTED BEFORE HE DIED, “I cannot breathe,” that is evident!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
