If you look at the scientific evidence of Floyd he died from respiratory arrest from a drug overdose. HE asked to get on the ground out of the car just as he had done in a prior arrest saying he couldn’t breathe. He had taken a large amount of drugs some found in his mouth and back of patrol car. He had severe high blood pressure and a tumor found at autopsy called a paraganglioma which secretes hormones causing very high blood pressure, heart arrhythmias as well as other things. He complained he couldn’t breathe long before he was restrained by police. The initial pathologist did not say cause of death was from the neck restraints. He changed it because of political pressures around the case. In fact there was no crush injury to the structures in the neck. Here is info straight from the autopsy report.
NECK: Layer by layer dissection of the anterior strap muscles of the neck discloses no areas of contusion or hemorrhage within the musculature. The thyroid cartilage and hyoid bone are intact. The larynx is lined by intact mucosa. The thyroid is symmetric and red-brown, without cystic or nodular change. The tongue is free of bite marks, hemorrhage, or other injuries
SO no major injuries in the neck yet that is supposedly how he died. It’s BS. He had fatal doses of drugs in his system, an enlarged heart, atherosclerosis, a paraganglioma. He died due to complications from his long history of drugs and untreated HTN and the hormone secreting tumor. The drugs suppress respiration . The cop did not kill Floyd and someday he should get out of jail if our legal system is fair. But it’s not. It persecutes conservatives and police. If Floyd had been white this cop would not be in jail. The left decided to make him their poster boy and they didn’t care they ruined the lives of these police officers.
Here is medical info of paraganglioma symptoms
These classic signs are:
- Anxiety, nervousness or panic attacks
- Headaches
- Heart palpitations, marked by the heart pounding, fluttering or beating rapidly
- Hypertension (high blood pressure), though levels may rise and fall and sometimes even drop too low
- Sweating
These symptoms overlap with other conditions, but when they occur together, they can indicate paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma. Paragangliomas cause these symptoms by boosting the production and release of hormones called catecholamines. Catecholamines, which include epinephrine (adrenaline), norepinephrine (noradrenaline) and dopamine, are neurotransmitters. They bring instructions from nerves to other parts of the body.
Less commonly, paragangliomas can cause:
- Dizziness
- Dyspnea, or difficulty breathing
- Fatigue
- Flushing of the skin
- Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar)
- Nausea
- Pain in the back or belly
- Pale appearance
- Vomiting
