That I can agree with.
The prosecutions case yesterday was very much here look at this tiny fraction of this single image frame captured out of a nearly 30 minute video. That looks bad right?
The defense's response was yeah, but when you look at the context its irrelevant to the big picture.

The cross examination of this witness could be very interesting. Apparently David Fowler has been accused of covering up a the Polices role in the death of Anton Black who died in custody in 2018.

What the **** ? He can't answer the question on how GF looked because it would put him in the car, despite him being on numerous police bodycams showing him in the ******* car ?

Current withness the forensic pathologist should be interesting, currently going into detail about the death certificate and the classifications that relate to cause of death.
Going into detail about the different classifications and how a medical homicide is different to the legal one, along with a breakdown the causes of death that relate to GF.

I just hope it doesn't spill over to the UK again, though I'm not hopeful.

That's a new piece of evidence.
Apparently the squad car was still running during the whole indicent and with GFs prone at a street level with his face directly facing the exhaust of the squad car, carbon monoxide poisoning could have been a contributing factor in his death.

Yeah, that's a new one - not sure about that CO idea...
Though the notion that it was sudden death/an arrhythmia does seem reasonable though... someone with an underlying heart issue, blocked arteries, drugs and the heart rate increasing/adrenaline pumping in the arrest could have caused this regardless.

Then it's negligence from Chauvin and his fellow officers no ? They put GF in the position to be at risk from the exhaust ?

Clearly the cause of GF's death is a lack of electric cars in Minneapolis.

I think most people wouldn't have even considered exhaust emissions at the time.

I would have thought any (competent) pathologist would have tested GF's blood/spotted signs of CO poisoning during the autopsy?
