Three more former Minneapolis police officers were charged on Wednesday in the deadly arrest of George Floyd, five days after charges were brought against a fourth officer who was seen in a video kneeling on Floyd’s neck.
Former officers Tou Thao, Thomas Lane and J. Alexander Kueng are facing charges of aiding and abetting murder, according to criminal complaints filed by the state of Minnesota on Wednesday. The murder charge against another former officer, Derek Chauvin, was also elevated to second-degree murder.
In anyone is interested in a very detailed medical description of what killed George Lloyd, this doctor does a good job.
He also has some extremely good videos on how covid-19 affects the body, particularly in all the different ways it attacks people based on each individual's particular weakness.
His explanations get very detailed, and there's some unavoidable medical terminology that he has to explain, but if you keep with him to the end, you'll have a thorough understanding...and you'll be better able to see through the media and political spin.
All four officers are now charged in Mr. Floyd's death. I couldn't be happier. I can't bear to watch the video but saw some still shots of three of the officers holding Mr. Floyd down while the fourth one looked on. For nine minutes. Nine minutes! Why? If their purpose was to handcuff him because he might have been fighting them, it doesn't take nine minutes to do that.
I believe all those officers are as guilty as the next and I hope beyond hope they are all sentenced to prison for their crime.
Not only that, I hope the powers that be will look into the internal affairs division and ask why Chauvin had so many written reprimands and was still allowed to stay on the job. To me, they along with the police chief are just as guilty as any of them. Keeping these scumbag cops on the force is not acceptable. Nothing will ever improve as long as they continue to protect those

I can't watch more than two seconds of that video. What a horrific deed these guys carried out. I hope they are convicted and sentenced the maximum amount of time they can get.
