No, I don't think he wanted him dead but he murdered him because he is an idiot cop. Anyway, there is no reason to go back and forth about this so just let the jury decide. I doubt either one of us is on that jury so it's not our place to say because neither one of us has all of the information that jury has heard to date. Originally Posted by Lucas McCain

what he did may have been negligent of his act which was accidental.


you'd have to prove intent that he wanted to murder him on the sly, right in front of the public and other officers as well.


but you're right on one thing, the jury is going to decide.
wish more people would watch all the available videos, this man was fucking huge, he wouldn't follow orders, he was yelling i can't breathe while sitting in the back of the cop car, and faught with police to get out of the cop car.

You wrestle around a man over 6'4 with hands that can palm your head like an ape, get tired, exhausted, and he won't stop, just keeps going,. anyone saying because he was hand cuffed and subdued by 4 cops that they over did it, is ignorant at how much energy you need to exert to control some out of control idiot on a cocktail of drugs that would kill the average man.

I've watch him fight with the police from the very second he got pulled from his car til they walked him across the street for identification of the store clerk, to trying to get him in the cop car.

The death of Floyd was caused by Floyd and no one else is responsible for his death than himself. If that jury convicts an innocent cop they are awful humanbeings.

Floyd was looking for a fight with police and got what he wanted, he was under no circumstances going back to jail.

You guys are funny with your ridiculous logic. I appreciate the people in this forum who actually have deductive reasoning.
If he didn’t resist arrest he may have lived a couple more hours. Originally Posted by bambino

If these people believe that a city gives out $27M settlements because there is no malfeasants, that is their problem if they can't figure out the simple fact that they are wrong. It's not that complicated.
