You're wrong about Floyd.

https://www.hennepin.us/ME - open news release.
June 1st- initial findings updated on June 6th with cause and manner of death.
June 3rd - full 20 page report.

Note: Hennepin clearly state they will not comment on whether Chauvin is culpable or not. It is not their job to do so. This line "Manner of death is not a legal determination of culpability or intent, and
should not be used to usurp the judicial process. Such decisions are outside the scope of the Medical Examiner’s role or authority." neither clears or condemns the officers. That is for a court to decide. A homicide can also be an accident.

Whoever told you "heart attack" "complications with drug use" etc were not this medical examiner. You can call me a moron, a sheep, etc, but cite a source that is reliable if you want to disagree with what this report finds and says. I hope it is not some pundit who thinks they understand toxicology, that would be embarrassing for both of you.

Did you read the reports?

I am very much familiar with body cam footage. I would recommend you watch this one, it is the longest I've found and clearly shows one aspect that people tend to say "nuh-uh" to - three officers on top of him https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhwxGzYU2ts&list=PL_A8NcDpe0W_z3yDuNyjruy0bUWxW-n9R&index=3&t=0s

He said he couldn't breathe before he was on the ground, yes. He was coherent. Someone overdosing on fentanyl is not. I'm not even saying the drugs weren't a factor, but Baker did not add them as a factor in his findings.

It is not entirely out of the question that he potentially could have died regardless, but you cannot ignore the circumstances and the people that say this do not take into account Floyd's weight, Floyd's level of tolerance, anything like that.

I will agree with you that one day he likely will have died because of his heart or perhaps because of drugs. The officers were 100% a factor in his death though. Which does not mean they murdered him.

A doctor explained how George Floyd couldn't have died from a fentanyl overdose. It could have been a contributing factor, but the knee definitely was what caused the death.. And the part where he says that he couldn't breath prior to the knee could have easily been his claustrophobia, which breathlessness is one of the symptoms.

Leaning on the carotid arteries (these are effected when pressure is applied to the side of your neck) absolutely does cut off blood flow, specifically blood flow to the head, brain and face. If that pressure is applied for an extended period, it can be fatal.

Except that's not what the autopsy said.

Autopsy report is above, June 3rd in "News release" in the link, full report. Tell me where it says he o.d'd. Page and paragraph.

And even though the carotid's are more forward than back, I grant you that, they are close to the centre. When you look for a pulse in a neck, you are checking the carotid, you don't poke someone in the throat to do so. Check your pulse right now, you'll understand where they are.

I don't know what to say to you about the trachea note... you'll have to be more specific.

Let's take your muscle note at face value. What happens if I lean directly on Muscle? What does the muscle do? If you want a direct understanding of what I mean, depress your bicep now, giving you bigger muscle mass.

If you are truly dedicated to this line of reasoning, ask someone to lean on a relatively small part of your arm or leg for a minute, or press it against a wall with your body weight. Tell me after that there was no effect on your blood flow. That's just a minute, two officers were on his neck and back for almost nine. (Just in case, do not ask someone to lean on your neck, I'm afraid you do not understand just how dangerous that truly is and this warning feels necessary.)
