I am not making up anything. I'm going by the testimony.
At the very best, proper protocal would have required Chauvin to call medical sevices as soon as he thought Floyd was on drugs (which was pretty immediate) NOT continue to sit on his neck for nine minutes. His actions absolutely were against and led to an unnecessary death.
You're lying to the USMB forum.
EMS was called at 8:20. That's within a minute of when they laid him on the ground at his request.
George Floyd said that he wasn't doing any drugs. And on top of that, his so-called friends also refused to say what he was on.
If the cops knew what he was on, they probably could have saved his life with a shot of naloxone. Every MPD unit has it in their car.
Usually, when someone is overdosing on fentanyl, they don't behave all fucking crazy, resist arrest and display superhuman strength like Floyd was doing. They act the opposite of that. Usually they just sort of nod off.
However, Floyd was not merely on fentanyl, he was also on meth. The meth was temporarily masking the effects of his fentanyl overdose.
The cops had absolutely no way of knowing that Floyd was on fentanyl until the meth rush wore off and he stopped breathing. And by then it was too late.
Nothing those cops did caused Floyd's death. He died from an overdose.
Officer Thao said it best. "This is why you don't do drugs, kids."
