Carbon monoxide did not reach Floyd. Reread my post...slowly. Review your undergrad textbook on general chemistry.

What killed Floyd was Chauvin who caused positional asphyxia.

Chauvin is an idiot dangerous to human life.

He isn't going to testify. I figured he would do that a long time ago.

The defense would put on a forensic pathologist who faults Chauvin for not providing immediate medical aid to a pulseless Floyd, talks about carbon monoxide in open air, and evokes incidental paragangliomas as possible contributors, yet still not entertain the argument you offered before the jury.

Hope this helps.

Derek Chauvin just invoked his Fifth Amendment right. If he is innocent, what does he have to hide? This is the same logic that conservatives always use on this forum. How do you feel about that now?

Not sure why liberals assumed he would. He's playing it by the book, and rightfully so.

Personally, I don't think anyone assumed he would testify.

I agree Derek Chauvin should not be compelled to be a witness against himself, & so therefore agree. It would serve no purpose for him to testfy.

This is not one side "rooting" as it seems to be for you. It's two men, and it's ALL the factors that should be considered. It is NOT about left or right. It is not making a judgment based on media spin.

Try listening to the trial and turning off the media when they put their spin on it.

Try re-reading my post. You stated that carbon monoxide rose, I stated it mixed in the air also stating that movement would have pushed that air around. Nowhere did I say carbon monoxide reached Floyd.

So when the officer is convicted off manslaughter and acquitted of murder, how many people will the animals rioting in the street kill?
