An independent autopsy into the death of George Floyd found that his death was a homicide and the unarmed black man died of"asphyxiation from sustained pressure."
The autopsy says compression to Floyd's neck and back led to a lack of blood flow to his brain.Floyd was essentially"dead on the scene" in Minneapolis on May 25, said Ben Crump, attorney for the Floyd family. Multiple videos of Floyd's death show former police officer Derek Chauvin's knee on Floyd's neck, along with other officers kneeling on his back.
MattTakesAction CNN CNNPolitics cnni CNN will always do its best to sabotage The republicans, and all who tries to make 'America Great Again.'
Amazing to see the people of the USA taking to the streets showing we are all part of the only race, the human race! So many people of all colours! As a South African this overwhelming solidarity especially from white people, brings me to tears!
They kill him and all the murder police should be death by now justice
uh no. he was murdered by 4 cops.
What a shame. We do not deserve treatments like this.
That cop should get the electric chair. There should be a law for these crimes and hatred the cops are doing to black innocent men and women. This needs to stop right here. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Floyd's death is a homicide due to the police.
FAKE NEWS
It’s not an independent autopsy. It was commissioned by his family, who sort of have a vested interest. He who pays the piper and all that justsaying
RealCandaceO
Honor his memory.
SammyGyamfi2017 OfficialNDCGh take this down this is very insensitive. Lets all report this account SammyGyamfi2017
More bullshit!!!
marigold1154 Do they think we are damned stupid
marigold1154 WTF Are they Blind 🤬
fxxxxck
The police who killed GF need to be die asap!!!!! let humanity show how that Pig die so the protest will stop!!! thats 1 answer!!! kill the police and show them that justice is for real bitch
Yall be giving fake news ' I CAN'T BREATHE ' is what he said. Proof's on camera!
CNN can you justify how independent is this autopsy .....come on
The fact that people needed an autopsy report to learn what we knew from the video, from years of police brutality, from centuries of oppression. Chile....
Y’all review records and report facts !!! 💪🏽💪🏾💪🏿💪🏼
It honestly breaks my heart knowing that man was lying on the floor having little to no oxygen rushed to his brain because a racist disgusting cop decided to press his knee on the man’s neck. Justice needs to be served!! BlackLivesMatter JusticeForFloyd
When you don’t accept reality so you go ask someone else
How is an autopsy commissioned by his family branded independent?
CNN should be shut down for inciting violence. Don Lemon should be arrested for inciting violence
Question: why is an independent autopsy better than the medical examiner's?
As a White American, Im not allowed to see the color of someones skin. Therefor, George did not die because of his skin color.
Bullshit ! If That Was True Then He Wouldn’t Of Been Able To Yell Out That He Couldn’t Breath Because If You Can Talk Then You Can Breath ! And You Cant Asphyxiate Someone From The Side Of The Neck ! The Lives Of Protestors Will Be On Your Hands But We Know You Dont Care

여기도 참으로 썩은 나라군.
What a surprise you mean the county covered up for the cops. Never would I imagine
How the hell can 3 officers pinning him down with 1 kneeling on George’s neck and back, another pushing his handcuffed hands into his backpressing down and the other holding his legs, a whole video showing this and a autopsy and STILL no one is doing anything!! 😡😡😡
I just can't believe that one says no he didn't andone says he did due of suffocation. Come on you have got to get someone who is not gonna be biast.
of course....you can also find an independent autopsy to say he died of coronavirus..
Strong man can died like that how brutal is American policemen, look like daylight execution on the street with disgusting video for the world to witness.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Democrats covering up for Democrats
To even have a preliminary report is irresponsible until all the facts come out you should not be trying to stir people up... this the outta pocket shit KillerMike was talking about
So we need independent investigation to tell us water is wet?!
First degree
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Can anybody tell me what was the initial report please ?
The original report of his death was so clean, if the videos didn't go viral they would have got away with it...
Black Life Matters Governor should Resign!
You need no autopsy to get that conclusion. It was very obvious to see that in the video.
I knew, this as an attorney i believe it is Murder 1 and there are equally culpable. And should be charged! Murder 3 is a, joke. The police officers all four life imprisoned or death
Why they lied so his family should suit the county medical for lying
We all saw it. We all know what he died of. Don't try and deny it.
So the officer needs to be out in jail right away: he had the intention to kill him! One thing that we have to pay attention is while he was holding George down with his knees, one of his hands, because we could not see the other, was in his pocket!! It means was playing! Murder!
This Americans always find what they are paid for. Probably CNN admirers
Yep
All the policemen present at the scene are responsible for this First Degree Murder.
nellarose_ 😐
Is he wearing “off-white”
Now maybe the cops who are responsible will get 2nd degree murder. Everyone hopes so
Naasei_90 Can that pathologist be charged as an accomplice? lawyers on the TL
Cause they lied‼️
County medical examiner’s conduct ought to be peer reviewed and he may need to reprimanded for retraining.
Now investigate the coroner for Minneapolis! Whoever delivered the wrong report last week!
Riots that happen in series across cities has never worked since the beginning of civilization. It’s not going to work now: “Hey, you’re stealing, from that store, stop that! It’s not stealin’ the sto’ wide open man, it’s free,get the F*k out ma face!” This is stupidity!
We Know
Sure.
The truth doesn't matter anymore. That's why we're so divided in this country. Everyone has 2 sides to everything no matter what and always different beliefs. This will never stop
The weight of America's police force has been on the neck of BLACKs for yrs. Remember Rodney King? Like May 3, 1963, August 4, 2016, Officer Lorne Alston' K9 mauled a young black man, May 4, 1963 black school boys, PEACEFULLY protesting were arrested by police, we WILL breathe!
Time to upgrade those charges
Ok. Can I make a suggestion here? Do TWO independent autopsies. Why? Because we have one report saying murder and one that says it wasn’t murder. This will just cause MORE PROBLEMS.
I think we have questions for the medical examiner that made it look like it was due to pre-existing conditions and drugs
I want the last thing that CNN ever says about George Floyd to be: 'He was a good man.'
It was not 'independent' the family paid for it STATE FACTS NOT OPINIONS
He was murdered 😡
i mean, we watched the video
Vote George Floyd brother just said no violence in my brother’s name! Do something different Vote! We need to set up voter registration tables everywhere there is a protest!
Like we didn’t already know that. Know charge the other cops AND investigate the coroners office for trying to cover up for these pigs. JusticeForFloyd
I can find a doctor to say anything if the price is right! Looks like the virus isn't a problem any more!
The initial coroner should be arrested for trying to cover up the truth
PLS RETWEET!!! DERECK M. CHAUVIN!!!!! SQUEEZED THE LIFE OUT OF FLOYD GEORGE. 😢😢 DERECK M. CHAUVIN!!!!! SQUEEZED THE LIFE OUT OF FLOYD GEORGE. 😢😢 DERECK M. CHAUVIN!!!!! SQUEEZED THE LIFE OUT OF FLOYD GEORGE. 😢😢 HE THEY KILLED HIM!!! WE DEMAND JUSTICE.
HMMM The county is run by DEMOCRATS !!!!
Tonight the violence increases
Um, Billy Barr already ruled George Floyd’s death a suicide. GOP 🙄
CRIMINALINTHEW1
We dont need an autopsy to know it was murder, we all seen it. Shouldn't even need a trial, it is on public display. You can execute him right now and I don't think anyone would complain.
Also...
We needed an autopsy to know this ? Smh ... The whole world could see that .
I think we knew that already dear cnn
No shit
Damn!! Minneapolis police are corrupt AF!!
Still a murder
please kindly follow I promise to follow back
TechnicallyRon weird how asphyxiation leads to dying of asphyxiation
CNN IS THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE
God this is so sad my condolences to The Floyd family may God sustain and heal you and give you strength. And may God also heal our nation and heal it of all racism.
Sack and arrest the medical examiner! All breaking the law must learn their lesson.
TerrenceFloydMessage
Sue the medical examiner as accessory to the crime top!
We been knew!!
This in a Democratic State!
1. The video was good enough autopsy. 2. When is the examiner getting his/her license revoked? BLACK_LIVES_MATTER
thejdevereaux No shit
So this medical examiner is just going to be allowed to cover up like this? How many other deaths has he lied about? He needs to be fired. He's part if the problem.
Lies won't change the truth, we have first hand information
MSNBC_Breaking maddow NBCNews This video makes 3rd degree murder bullcrap!
CNN has let the American public down. You give a lot of free air time to trump by not covering Joe Biden's live events. danpfeifer thank you for pointing it out
No duuuuur!!!!
Baden is a hired hand - he’s going to come up with the results he’s paid to produce.
Yep, how many cover ups in this examiner's carrier ? Bet it wasn't the first 🤨
Excuse after excuse after excuse... do these 4 cops have diamonds as bones Wanna know why their value is much more important than the whole world.. you still tryna lie to us after we saw him get killed on camera
Independent autopsy for Epstein…
It just makes me sad that there are people who would believe anything else when there's evidence of a murder on camera
The county medical examiner will do whatever he can do to protect these killers. 💯 % lies. The m ducal examiner should be fired and tried for obstruction of justice
The Hennepin Medical Examiner autopsy was not just a contradictory conclusion from today's independent autopsy. We all have eyes. It was an attempted cover-up. BlackLivesMatter
