George Floyd did not overdose on opioids. He had traces of opioid metabolites in his blood. The levels of metabolites would leave toxicologists to believe he had not had any opioids in his system that day as if he was high he would have fentanyl in his system not metabolites. For example a man high on marijuana has thc in his blood. A week later a man high on marijuana would have metabolites dissolved from fatty tissues. Also opioids make a person completely subdued while intoxicated it not is like taking methamphetamine where someone is freaking out super adrenaline rushed.
George Floyd died of cardio pulmonary arrest. Yes it is a heart attack. But one consistent with a lack of oxygen where the heart does not "flutter" but restricts all together. When a person over doses it is usually a type of heart attack where the heart is pumping so fast the rhythm becomes inconsistent and one vessel stops pumping as fast as the other. This was not the case for George Floyd.
In George Floyd's case it would appear a lack of oxygen killed him but there is argument that a lack of oxygen would lead to violent bruising inside the persons chest as they struggled for air. This is often the case with a victim suffocated with a cloth or a pillow or hands where they are facing up and their body can make violent movements as they struggle even though their face is compressed. This was not George Floyd's circumstance.
His chest was compressed on his back. So much so if the knee had been more on the neck then on the back it would not have been as effective since he was face down the knee pressure would have been on the spine not blocking air and blood to the brain.
In George Floyd's case the weight on the back did not even necessarily stop air from going into his lungs but the pressure stopped him from breathing in deeply and getting air evenly and the weight on his chest from 5 men holding him down surely stopped his heart from pumping even blood even with a lack of a supply of oxygen. Obviously him talking did not help him live longer using up precious little oxygen and breathing.
Its all right here. So anyone saying to me "you are an immature faggot that cannot argue with facts" there are your facts.
George Floyd was probably not murdered in the 1st degree in a pre meditated attempt even though George Floyd and the officer seemed to know each other from past run ins. But anyone taking a good look at the toxicology report can see that the symptoms of his type of heart attack were consistent with a lack of oxygen and not drug overdose which seems to effect the heart more in area then the other more damage to certain veins then others. George Floyds veins pretty much all stopped functioning in uniform fashion.
I believe this trial will go to the prosecution but for manslaughter not attempted murder. Its just facts. This is the ambiguity of the case the nature of the broader view of the facts put together.
Everything else is just to muck things up. Who hates who. Who is black and who is white. Who likes who and who doesn't. Do cops kill people as much as the media paints it out. Does it matter that he was black. Statistics of hate crimes and cop murders face value etc. Its all bullshit its all a strawman to point away from the facts. True hyperbole if I have ever seen it.
None of the statistics of hate crimes matter as anything else but opinions. This is what matters: George Floyd was killed probably accidentally but it remains 3rd degree murder it remains careless manslaughter. He was a big man that took 5 cops to handcuff him. But once handcuffed they all sat on him and depleted his oxygen intake and blood flow and he said he was in pain while a group of people stood around screaming at the cops to get off him and check his pulse and the cops did not.
In contrast the ambulance got there in record time. This should be looked into. Any evidence any of the cops themselves called the ambulance? They seemed not at all preoccupied with the idea George Floyd was in trouble at all and anything but high. I don't know. It could have been a bystander that called that in. The ambulance did its job. The cops did not beyond initially restraining George Floyd as he was obviously resisting.
All the "another fentanyl addict nigger died while a hero cop in the line of duty did his job well" comments do not change the facts. But oh well carry on. It doesn't change shit. There is a mob but why I believe its BLM this time is a notion beyond me. They seem pretty peaceful right now. But there definitely is a hate mob supporting violence right now that is obvious.
