Why couldn't he breathe in the back of the car?

I’m in no way a medical expert but probably the fentanyl, or a combination of that & panic.

'speedballs' and exertion from resisting arrest, he swallowed his entire stash of drugs to avoid going to jail to make matters worse he had severe hypertension and was hospitalized in 2019 during similar arrest with BP of 210 on 130, his heart just couldn't handle it this time

  > 'speedballs' and exertion from resisting arrest (...) Does that "exertion" include a grown man kneeling on your neck while you repeatedly and desperately tell him that the knee on his neck is stopping him from breeding? Because, even taking that claim at face value, it's pretty clear that removing the risk factor of having a grown police officer kneeling on your back and neck in a way that's stopping you from breeding would be something that did wonders to your ability to continue breeding and not die. Enough with this bullshit whitewashing of a brutal police murder.

    the parent comment asked "why couldn't he breathe in the back of the car" noone was kneeling on him in the back of the car if you watch the full footage there are 16 min of body camera footage before the viral video with Chauvin started, check it out

      > the parent comment asked "why couldn't he breathe in the back of the car" Did George Floyd died in the back of the car? Or did he died after the police officer spent over 8 minutes kneeling on his neck until and after he lost conciousness? Enough with this bullshit. It's absurd how these mental gymnasts try to inflate the relevance of trace amounts of a recreational drug as a smoking gun, which mind you was already thoroughly ruled out, but having a grown man kneeling on your neck for over 8 minutes after until the very moment the person dies is somehow worth no consideration?

        neck restraint is standard use of force. noone can be suffocated via back of the neck pressure unless there is significant tissue damage and broken bones or something indicating severely restricted airflow, and no damage whatsoever was found neither in his skin, nor deep tissue, nor bones of his neck. based on expert testimony and autopsy report he died from cardiac arrhythmia caused by drug overdose and exertion from resisting arrest which his sick heart just couldn't handle. He might have survived only if he didn't swallow his entire stash of fentanyl & meth to avoid jail and vigorously resist arrest, but unfortunately he did. This politicized case will be thrown out on appeal, as jury was obviously intimidated by mobs on the streets and politicians like Rep. Waters calling for violence in case of non-guilty verdict. One of the alternate jurors actually admitted it in recent interview, that they were scared to go against the mob "verdict".
