I haven't watched the vid in full but I thought I heard it showed he was alive when being kneeled on but motionless on the stretcher. - Max May 29, 15:13 1
- Apparently, the charging statement says Chauvin kept his knee on FLoyd's neck for 2m45s AFTER he became unresponsive. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 15:19

The family is getting an independent second autopsy. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 15:03
(Though if force IS a factor then the jury can and should be instructed that for 3rd degree murder that plus reckless disregard for human life suffice -- nm - JackDawson May 29, 14:59 2

Man the people in Minneapolis really want Minneapolis to burn to ground -- nm - Jovian May 29, 14:58

    - Signs of asphyxiation are hemorrhaging (can never spell) and pink teeth due to bleeding inside the tooth. Sign of strangulation is fractured hyoid. -- (edited) - loosilu May 29, 15:15 2
      - Though suffocation wouldn't need a fracture. -- nm - Max May 29, 15:18 1
        
        Right, but I'm saying, they didn't find signs of asphyxiation. I'm sure there aer more than the ones I mentioned. -- nm* - loosilu May 29, 15:19
    - Petechial hemhorraging is a sign of asphyxiation. -- nm - loosilu May 29, 15:13
the fix is already in -- nm - Jovian May 29, 14:53
