I've been watching a lot, there is no way they get murder on this.
You never know what a jury will do, but Floyd ingested a lethal dose of fentanyl. Sounds like that's what actually killed him.
Medical examiner testifies drugs, heart conditions were contributing causes in George Floyd's death. However, Dr. Andrew Baker, the man who performed Floyd's autopsy, said on Friday, April 9, that he still believes that Floyd's direct cause of death was "cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression."Dr. Andrew Baker testified on Friday, April 9, that he still believes that Floyd's direct cause of death was "cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression" but, in a break with his peers, called Floyd's heart conditions and drug ingestion "contributing causes." A day earlier, jurors heard testimony that cast the level of methamphetamine and fentanyl found in Floyd's system after he died as relatively low.
Negligence does not equal murder. He possibly could get criminally negligent homicide but murder I highly doubt.
Any updates today?
Yes, black people are angry.

I have not been following the case, but judging by the way the media has been treating the defense attorneys, they must be doing a great job.
What's the over/under on how many billions of damage the "peaceful protesters" will do when the cops get acquitted?How many cities will burn?
We'll have to see how it plays out. I typically avoid youtube video with big letters drawing a conclusion and try and focus on the testimony. But given a Jury is involved, it could go either way. I have my personal opinion but won't lose sleep either way
I think this is a mistake big time here.
I’ll go with Manslaughter.
My thought is that Chauvin will be convicted of something, mainly to appease the public, maybe like you suggest it will be criminally negligent homicide or some other lesser charge. Can't be too lenient or it won't work and the demonstrations and riots will continue if not proliferate. I pity any white police person who kills a black man or woman at this point. No matter how justified, it is going to be a no win for the cop.
bullshitthe cops usually get offFloyd was alive when Chauvin knelt on his neck and he was dead when Chauvin got up
