Derek Chauvin’s defence continue to push the case George Floyd died from a drug overdose which was exacerbated by the black man’s existing health conditions.

The trial over Mr Floyd's death has entered its third week of hearings.

The court heard of an incident a year prior to Mr Floyd’s death where he was in the passenger seat of a car which was pulled over and he was subsequently handcuffed after a heated exchange with police. He was later taken to hospital and told a paramedic he had taken opioids as he was being apprehended by the police.

“from a drug overdose which was exacerbated by the black man’s”.....hahahaha why that choice of wording

That's an odd way to say 'George Floyd was murdered'.

I’m not sure which is more disturbing; that Sky News is reporting on something they haven’t bothered to watch, or that they’ve seen what’s gone on in that courtroom & this is how they choose to report it. Noone who has actually watched the case would still believe Chauvin did it.

People who defending George wouldn't like to meet him in a dark alley

Oh OK! That makes it OK then? DefundThePolice

Cutting off someone’s oxygen by kneeling on their neck is murder. He’s guilty.

Drug overdose is a weird way to say “knee to the throat”

Continuing to push a lie despite the doctor saying otherwise.
