This bullshit conspiracy theory should die already.
George Floyd had less fentanyl in his system at time of death than over 75% of the people that the police examined during routine DUI cases taken when were alive and not dead due to fentanyl overdose.

Those parroting the fentanyl conspiracy theory are desperately grasping at straws to try to justify their irrational beliefs.
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
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.
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
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?
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".
When asked to clarify coroner said he meant in medical sense, as in "heart failure complicating leg surgery", i.e. his death was not expected from restraint itself
I'm not even making a moral argument here. That's the letter of the law. (Again, laws vary by state)
In fact they could have escalated it at least two levels to more restricted prone position and use of taser, but they didn't, and called an ambulance several times to expedite it.
this case will go to appeal and possibly the supreme court, as there was significant interference with the jury by the media, and even US representatives calling for violence on the streets to intimidate the jurors.
noone dies from back of the neck pressure unless there is physical damage and none was detected, not to his skin, nor deep tissues based on autopsy report, there was not enough pressure to cause suffocation
GF died from fentanyl overdose and sick heart which could't handle him resisting arrest for so long
The jury was obviously intimidated by the mob, let's hope for appeal and supreme court having enough sense to overturn this bs verdict.
That being said, the initial autopsy said this was only one factor and most people with this view are misreading that autopsy, which still stated the primary cause of death was compression of the neck.
