This is my stance, there was a point where Floyd was entirely unresponsive and I believe Lane comments that he cannot find a pulse. At this point Chauvin should have transitioned to resuscitation rather than just idly waiting for the ambulance to arrive. The entire crowd was pointing this fact out yet Chauvin persisted in his positional hold on Floyd. To me he is guilty of negligent homicide along with the asian cop, Thao. Thao had been a part time, recently full time cop for about 7 years and Chauvin had been for 15. Lane and Kueng were on their first week of the job so I don't count them as having enough experience or confidence to override a senior officer like Chauvin. I find everything being done by the book until Floyd went unresponsive and I think that is a reasonable stance for most of society to take. Charges of Murder are totally out of line in my eyes.The thing that’s fucked to me is Chauvin still restraining a corpse as the paramedics check it. It’s just... fuck man, what are you expecting him to do, get up and run away? They stayed on him after he was obviously a corpse. That’s severe negligence to me at least - the problem is if it’s negligence to the level of manslaughter or not. The cops fucked up, the question is if they fucked up enough to have contributed enough to a man dying to be legally liable for it.
