At this point it doesnt matter. The cop has a record of misconduct and use of explicit force. He worked with the victim. The public has made up its mind. Its Murder.
Apparently the autopsy report indicates strangulation was not the cause of death.

It says the medical examiner concluded that the combined effects of being restrained, potential intoxicants in Floyd's system and his underlying health issues likely contributed to his death.
And former NBA player Stephen Jackson said this:
“We can't love forever and the hate is coming out and I'm afraid," Jackson said during the rally. "I'm honestly afraid because I know what comes from hate, from us, and I know why y'all are so scared. Because y'all are scared that we're going to pull a you on you. I know why y'all are scared. Y'all have been doing us wrong for so long, y'all think karma's going to hit you right back.
"But we're going to do this s--- right and it ain't gonna stop. I don't have no more tears honestly. I've cried enough. I've cried enough. I'm here for one reason. For my brother's honor."
This will not play out well if this turns into a race war against whites. Or maybe it will. Maybe whites are to weak and passive to respond.
