George Floyd’s death was ruled a homicide, according to a new official autopsy report. The medical examiner said Floyd's heart and lungs stopped functioning 'while being restrained' by police.

Crump then called for the arrest of all the officers who played a part in Floyd's death and for first-degree murder charges to be brought against Chauvin.

"For Chauvin to leave his knee on George's neck despite warnings and evidence that his life was in danger — and to continue that course for many minutes — demands a first-degree murder charge," Crump said. The new findings come after six days of angry protests have cascaded across the U.S., leading to violent confrontations between law enforcement and demonstrators and journalists.

Kinda vague wording seems intentional for stupid people! Anyone's heart and lungs will stop if they die... That's not a reasonable diagnosis of a Medical Dr. Absurd. That said the officer was definitely out of line and wrong. All the BS is to stirr up violence.

Everyone that kills with intention of killing can’t escape God judgement even if he or she escape man’s judgement .No one has the right to take another persons life cos God value human ....guilt will put anyone that’s kill in self imprisonments forever.....Every life matters.

In other breaking news - water has been found to be sometimes wet and fire, believe it or not, is hot.

So? The legal definition of homicide is one human causing the death of another human being. Homicide itself is not a crime. So we already knew this

Wouldn't a heart attack or the body shutting down because of drug use be considered death by natural causes? Strangulation(same thing as asphyxiation) is a homicide. Can we stop playing games with this? We all saw and heard the cause of death.

Truth, Amen

We know that already 🙄

Cut off the head of the snake funding the criminals inciting the riotors. Go after George Soros. If Donald Trump doesn't it's an admission Soros is untouchable, in which case, America needs to ask what's going on with this evil man Soros.

FINALLY some honesty in all this bullshit

Now that we got the obvious out the way. Let’s start shredding away this evil that’s been infecting America for far too long ✊🏾

Hennepin County Medical Examiner who conducted George Floyd's autopsy saying that Floyd died of cardiopulmonary arrest is medical-ese bullshit. Everyone dies of cardiopulmonary arrest. George Floyd was slowly asphyxiated due to at least 450 lbs of cops on his body for 9 min.

Don't think an autopsy was required there tbh... ✊🏿✊🏽✊🏻

There is a difference between respiratory arrest and cardiac arrest. During respiratory arrest breathing stops. During cardiac arrest blood stops circulating. Fentanyl is known to cause respiratory problems which the prosecution will use.

There is, a difference between an air choke and a blood choke even though both can be fatal. Blood chokes are stranglehold air choke are choke holds.

nataliecvincent No shit!

Let me see. George Floyd had the illegal drug methamphetamine in his body when he died, and also was found to have 'fentanyl intoxication.' Fentanyl is also used as a recreational drug, often mixed with heroin or cocaine. Media seems to have missed all of this for some reason.

Does this mean the charge will be upgraded?

Report: Cardiac Arrest killed him likely due to drugs in his system, but made likely worse by the cops arresting and subduing him. Not some execution like people are screaming about. Everyone: 'Oh look homicide that means murder right lol'

💔

Second degree Murder. For every officer who stood there

Hopefully this will lead to charges for everyone involved

Seems like we need a third autopsy since the first two contradicts each other a little.

How else could it be ruled? A whole nation watched that cop murder that man, with knee of injustice on his neck.

The drugs in system will get officer a light sentence

Left right or in the middle everyone sees this as murder as with the young man in Georgia. Now it has been stolen away fanned by partisan rhetoric media puppets and Hollywood elite both sides. Independent America see this for what it is we will not forget or FORGIVE

It was a homicide alright, but the killer and the victim knew each other so it might not have been about race.

Brickh123 GeorgeFloydMurder Was A HATE Crime.

timtrutone Ummmm....I could have told you that 🤷‍♀️

I could hire any independent forensic coroner and get any result I want. Just like the corrupt DA got their result. What a joke.

Very sad. May God give strength to his family and friends.

No shit. His arms were handcuffed behind his back, restricting his ability to properly expand his rib cage in addition to knees and body weight. It doesn't matter if he had comorbidities. This is blatant disregard and dereliction of duty.

No violence . Justice will prevail

D’uh

If George Floyd was hit by a meteor just as he was OBVIOUSLY being murdered, with the whole world watching, he was still, OBVIOUSLY, indisputably being murdered. What the hell is this even about?!

If you watched that video, you already knew that.

Every officer needs to be charged with murder. This likely isn't the first time they've had part in murdering a unarmed black man.

Another tragedy in a democrat run city

And why did the officer do it? Because he thought he could get away with it. They always do...

Was he high on fentanyl and meth?

Yeah everyone in America was agreement on this until we got attacked by domestic terrorist

Trump is a fascist. The GOP are the new Nazis. Same as the old Nazis. Many are going to die. Sorry, but this matters.

It was torture leading to a murder.

That doesn't change the fact that thing's are going south.

And the pandemic plays on.. Despotdonnie is spouting off about US mayors and governors. impeachtrump cowered in fear in the basement bunker with the White House lights off. Cadetbonespurs behavior is consistent with previous cowardice regarding women, young girls & Vietnam
