and said it might have gone easier if the Black man had been “resting comfortably” on the pavement.
Brodd likened it instead to a situation in which officers use a Taser on someone fighting with officers, and the suspect falls, hits his head and dies: “That isn’t an incident of deadly force. That’s an incident of an accidental death.” Prosecutor Steve Schleicher used his cross-examination to once again painstakingly go through video clips of a pinned-down Floyd gasping that he couldn’t breathe and then going limp.The prosecutor hammered away at Brodd, saying that a reasonable officer in Chauvin’s position would have known Floyd stopped resisting, that another officer told him he couldn’t find a pulse, and that others said Floyd had passed out and was no longer breathing.
Brodd also appeared to endorse what prosecution witnesses have said is a common misconception: that if someone can talk, he or she can breathe. The defense began presenting its case on Tuesday after the prosecution rested following 11 days of testimony and a mountain of video evidence. . While Floyd was pinned to the ground, a relatively new officer at the scene had mentioned that Floyd might be suffering from such a condition.
Try it on this guy and see what happens. Great demonstration for the jury.
Well, we know he pinned down a few or two..
today's expert - Mr Floyd coherent just prior to death - 45 seconds prior to death or cessation of movement, is that the testimony of Dr Fowler
So they found a rascist former cop and put him on the stand! This is an expert huh? 🤔
There is nothing normal about Chauvin's behavior. I know many cops who would feel Floyd was being a pain in the ass & possibly on too many substances but still make sure he's breathing, got him to the hospital & still charged him. This is not normal.
This so-called expert is only an expert in justifying choking civilians & supporting KillerCops wonder what his personnel records say about his time in law enforcement GeorgeFloyd DerekChauvinTrail MinneapolisPD mayor_elliott HuffPost MSNBC CNN AttorneyCrump PoliceRefor
“Expert” lol
'OK, just checking.' - the defense
Good for the Judge
'If it doesn't fit, you must acquit!' - Johnny Cochran (1996) 'We're so full of sh*t, you must acquit!' - Police Union (2021)
It may be a very common maneuver in trials. But even the defence forgets that this is far from a ‘common trial’ that they want to convince the people it is. Though I am doubtful that Chavin will be found guilty, nothing will change my opinion. GeorgeFloyd
Can we go somewhere today?
Murder is murder. I just want to know why he did it, something is missing.
