Doesn’t matter. First off, I agree with hooshouse below.


There’s almost no chance he’d have randomly died of a heart attack at that moment without the stress of a knee crushing his throat for over 8 1/2 minutes. This may take 1st degree murder off the table. Not 3rd degree murder.

2 other cops added their knees to the mix for some of that 8.5 minute spasm of cruelty. Let’s see if charges come their way.

Separate and apart from the rioting and the opportunistic looting by some - that’s not acceptable. The time is long since past when our society needs to introduce 0 tolerance for the kind of policing on display in Minneapolis that day.
