Witness Derek Smith answers questions Image: AP/PA Images Witness Derek Smith answers questions Image: AP/PA Images A PARAMEDIC HAS testified that George Floyd was already dead when he arrived at the scene and Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, who is being tried for murder, still had his knee on the neck of the 46-year-old Black man.
Prosecutors are seeking to prove that Chauvin’s actions led to Floyd’s death while the ex-officer’s attorney claims that he died due to illegal drug use and underlying medical conditions. David Pleoger, who has since retired, was asked by prosecutors to give his opinion about the use of force in Floyd’s arrest.

The paramedics didn't exactly give George Floyd the greatest chance, their lack of professionalism is shocking. They didn't assess him, they didn't try and resuscitate or get a defib straight away. Why did 2nd paramedic get into the front of the ambulance for a cardiac arrest?!
I hope the cops get off
