The interesting thing is that while the superior officers said Chauvin's actions were unnecessary, a bunch of losers in here are trying to defend him.

Coupled with the fact that George had lethal doses of fentanyl and his arteries were 70% or more clogged, well it’s much harder now to conclude that the death was intentional. Remember it has to be beyond reasonable doubt that Chauvin intended to kill George, and with all of those other factors at play, fentanyl, poor health, and following police procedure well that’s a tall order to prove beyond reasonable doubt.
Detective says Chauvin knee on neck a 'totally unnecessary' use of deadly force
Lt Richard Zimmerman, who leads the homicide department, said in testimony on Friday that in four decades as a police officer he had never been trained to place a knee on someone’s neck as a means of restraining them during an arrest.

Homicide
The killing of one human being by another human being.
“Although the term homicide is sometimes used synonymously with murder, homicide is broader in scope than murder. Murder is a form of criminal homicide; other forms of homicide might not constitute criminal acts. These homicides are regarded as justified or excusable. For example, individuals may, in a necessary act of , kill a person who threatens them with death or serious injury, or they may be commanded or authorized by law to kill a person who is a member of an enemy force or who has committed a serious crime.”
You keep getting owned because you’re a buffoon who thinks he’s smarter than he actually is. Whose low IQ also makes him believe everything you don’t like is white supremacy.
Lt Richard Zimmerman, who leads the homicide department, said in testimony on Friday that in four decades as a police officer he had never been trained to place a knee on someone’s neck as a means of restraining them during an arrest.
“If your knee is on a person’s neck, that can kill them,” he said.
In evidence likely to be highly damaging to the defence claim that Chauvin was acting out of concern for his own safety as he arrested Floyd, a 46-year-old Black man, in Minneapolis last May, Zimmerman described the level of force used by officers after Floyd was in handcuffs as “totally unnecessary”.
“Once a person is cuffed, the threat level goes down all the way. They’re cuffed, how can they really hurt you?” he said.
“I saw no reason why the officers felt they were in danger, if that’s what they felt. And that is what they have to feel to use that level of force,” said Zimmerman.

What killed the man? Was it being in a stressful situation (that he put himself in) while having a deadly dose of drugs running through his veins or was it the cop and the knee. Or do you believe that there is another scenario? Prove, beyond any reasonable doubt, which one you believe that it was, while displaying your evidence.

The pressure on his neck was enough to kill any healthy man. If the supply of blood is cut off the victim can suffer permanent brain damage. If the air supply is cut off the victim dies. Both scenarios occur well under nine minutes. Chauvin showed no remorse or concern about the victim during the altercation or after it. What we have here is a psychopath . It happens. There are psychopaths in every walk of life. Not many but they are there. A startling statistic is in law enforcement the number is 40%.
