My bad, I read that you said carbon monoxide rose. As the article said, it mixes easily with the air. Air isn't stagnant and it is pushed around with movement. So much went wrong, the deadly drug cocktail, refusal to comply, human defensive reactions to threats on both sides, agitated bystanders, medics unable to respond until danger clears, now carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide did not reach Floyd. Reread my post...slowly. Review your undergrad textbook on general chemistry.
Thank you for drawing attention to the fact that two of the four officers at the scene (Kueng and Lane) were raw rookies, and therefore lacking in experience and knowledge. I think that added to the complications that Chauvin had to deal with.

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.
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?
I was just wondering. Hey conservatives who are rooting for Chauvin. Quick question for you. Why was it necessary for Chauvin to have his knee on Floyd's neck for 3 minutes after they confirmed no pulse was found?
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.

What killed Floyd was Chauvin who caused positional asphyxia.
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?
