  1. Whether Chauvin is found guilty or innocent there WILL BE RIOTS to get "free stuff". No matter what happens in the court room there will be riots.

  2. And it wasn't counterfeit, it was about something else George Floyd best friend the basketball player said it was an execution as Chauvin worked with Floyd as bouncers. He did it in purpose. I wonder why they omit to say they knew each other.

  3. "We investigated ourselves and cleared ourselves of any wrongdoing. But…
    We will throw our own under the bus (or the train in this case) whenever our massive salaries and lifelong benefits are threatened."
    —American police slogan.

  4. Google Chauvin's list of past complaints. There were already complaints of him using excessive and unnecessary force in past situations. For example – the 12 year old with a nerf gun that Chauvin pointed an actual gun at. His job at the club where he pepper sprayed drunks on nights that were african themed. He was reprimanded several times. Hes a racist on a power trip. In my opinion he took advantage of the fact that Floyd was on drugs. And likely was aggressive toward Floyd because he didnt like that. Not only does the list of complaints work against this…but so does the video. Trust what you see. 9 minutes is too long for anyone. Floyd could have been completely sober – he'd still be dead.

  5. Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.

  6. Cause of Death is not attributed to a knee on the neck, back, etc…
    The lethal dose of fentanyl in his system caused his death.
    He killed himself.
    Riddle me this..
    The question noone has asked yet is…would this criminal be alive if he hadn't ingested a lethal dose of fentanyl?
    The other question…Had EMT'S been on the scene when this ctiminal was first taken out of the Police vehicle ( by his own request) would they have been able to save him after he ingested a lethal dose of fentanyl?
    Follow the Law, not your emotions.

  7. floyd.. most expensive.. 27 million $ dead, drugs addict and criminal.. Minneapolis tax payers must be happy to pay all that and more.. but, but they will make at least a Guinness Book of Records mention.. way to go..

  8. George Floyd is a good example of a devil walking on this earth… Look at all the devils & demons standing up for one of their own

  9. When chauvin said no to rolling him on his side , should be all the evidence u need. Trained not to do it but he did it anyway

  10. I don't understand the need of a trial when is clearly obvious that the police used lethal and unnecessary force on a guy. The trial must be on the other policemen that did nothing to stop the other police.

  11. HOW MANY TIMES IS THE MEDIA GOING TO CRY WOLF AND LIE AND MAKE MARTYRS OUT OF VIOLENT CRIMINAL GARBAGE WHILE RUINING INNOCENT PEOPLE'S LIVES?

    BREONNA TAYLOR
    RAYSHARD BROOKS
    MIKE BROWN
    TRAYVON MARTIN
    JACOB BLAKE
    PHILANDO CASTILE
    ERIC GARNER
    AHMAUD ARBERY
    DANIEL PRUDE
    GEORGE FLOYD
    ALTON STERLING
    ELIJAH MCCAIN

    WHEN IS THE MEDIA GOING TO STOP LYING, RACE BAITING, GASLIGHTING?

    More white people are killed by the police every year… Know any of their names?

    More cops are killed by African Americans every year… Know any of their names?

    🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

  12. Why is his statement the least bit surprising since he oversees of the police dept.'s homicide division that works with the prosecution? The Chief of Police will say the same thing next week. They like their jobs and want to keep them. It's called throw them under the bus politics.

  13. Amen, handcuffs on his back . Apprehended . No need for his knee on his back I don’t care how bad of a criminal he was . Terrible tactic . Shame on that officer . I have seen mass shooters at school and colleges get better treatment. So sad over a twenty dollars counterfeit. Shame shame .

  14. Estimated lethal dose of Fentanyl in humans is 2mg

    Toxicology report for George Floyd.

    Fentanyl _ 11 ng/ml

    Norfentanyl. _ 5.6 ng/ml

    Methamphetamine _ 19 ng/ml

    11- hydroxy Delta-9 THC _ 1.2 ng/ml

    Delta-9 Carboxy THC. _ 42 ng/ml

    He was complaining of not being able to breathe long before he was restrained on the ground.

    Still think it was murder ?

  15. He said he couldn’t breathe on the footage before police were on scene… he had lethal levels of fentanyl and meth in his body. But don’t accuse me of that being my opinion. Look at the autopsy and watch the footage. It’s all a charade.

  16. That witness is on first 48 a lot he is legendary. Has nothing to do with this trial but this guy is a legendary homicide detective. Legendary. He has seen it all.

  17. A Tribute in Memory of Mr. George Floyd

    Don't close the door please let the light shine in.
    Whispering sounds that echo off the walls.
    Straps laced too tightly no room for me to move.
    A blinding glance confuses me.

    Words can't express the pain of false bravado.
    Piercing stares from the tormented few.
    All sides suffering
    Can't take this life no more.
    Nothing to chance for a man to break free.

    I only need one eye to be open.
    One ear to listen to what I'm trying to say.
    Just take a moment to come inside and stand with me.
    Everyday's a nightmare
    I need someone to come save me.

    As I lay distressed pleading please help me mama.
    I see no beacon my life's growing dim.
    Robbed of tomorrow can't help those who were chosen.
    It's up to you where we go from here.

    If I could rise I'd speak up for my freedom with every breath I take that God has given me.
    Come take a chance and take a stand in harmony.
    There will be no tomorrow if we don't unite to be free.

    The violence that follows will only fuel their hate.
    Take the path that carries your voice of change.
    Let's lay to rest and and put an end to this shame.
    Be the hope your children need you to be.

    If I could rise I'd speak up for my freedom with every breath I take that God has given me.
    Come take a chance and take a stand in harmony.
    Everyday's a nightmare I need someone to come stand for me.

    There will be no tomorrow if we don't unite to be free.

    Rest in Peace Mr. George Floyd
