Prosecutors warn there is ‘evidence that does not support criminal charge’

[tsuke]

It’s excessive when a man tells you he can’t breathe and passes out and you continue to keep your knee on his neck.

Whats gonna happen here is people like AOC are going to push for murder charges when manslaughter could be more easily proven and then this guy gets off scot free. All due to racism of course not filing wrong charges.

[Truth Detector]

Obviously the police department did not agree.

Obviously the police union will not agree with the Department heads.

First off; there was no murder. Lastly, they are too stupid to press for manslaughter charges and the police union will vigorously defend these officers.

Suppose he died because he could not breathe because of a cop's knee on his neck?

BINGO

We dont fucking know yet!

But u fucking idiots have already labeled this Cop a racist and a killer

Obviously the police department did not agree.

How so?

[Flash]

How so?

They fired all four.

They fired all four.

They were fired to placate the black community.

There is a video of Floyd acting like something was wrong with him when the cops first got him to the side walk. He seemed to collapse against the wall. Then when they pick him up and start to the police he has a grimace on his face. There is another video shot from a distance where they are walking him to the cop car and his legs buckle under him and the cops end up carrying him over to the cop car. And u have no clue how much force was put on his neck wth the knee, he could still talk!

Something was wrong with him before the cop knee!

Suppose Floyd had a cardiac event because he took PCP etc??

Bullshit, you can see the officer's right foot moving around, indicating he has most of his weight on that left knee and foot. That is significant evidence of great force being exerted on the perp's neck. Furthermore, he's face down and cuffed, there's no good reason to continue to hold his knee on the guy's neck. None.

There is desperation in you presenting "supposes" with no evidence.

If he had a heart attack, while being choked, that is called murder. You take your victim the way you found him. There is a real chance Floyd was not healthy at that moment. That is not a mitigating situation for murder.

If they had just hit him, and he died, they could get the charges reduced to manslaughter. Hitting can lead to murder, but there is no such assumption. Choking becomes difficult, especially because they continued choking for minutes after he was unconscious.

A Congresswoman from another state has no say in what charges are filed.

It is easy to charge with multiple charges(both murder and manslaughter). The jury can decide wither murder or manslaughter. Sometimes a prosecutor will take manslaughter off the table to force a jury to either go with murder or not guilty. It is rare, and doubtful they would do so in this case.

If the jury goes with manslaughter, the prosecutor claims success in putting the criminal in prison, and blames the jury for not going with murder. It is the perfect situation for a prosecutor.

The real issue appears to be when the police department saw the surveillance video, and realized that the police had lied completely about the resisting arrest. There was a death, and all four police lied about the events leading up to the death. That is not good for continuing employment.

It ain't that easy to get up from lying on your stomach and handcuffed (especially with 4 cops standing over you!). No knee required.

More bullshit, you're just full of it!

Why can't police departments use something like this?

I don't think the guy even tried to resist, other than trying to breathe. That wouldn't even have been needed.
