Watching the Chauvin trial, and they are showing the police bodycam footage
I'd never watched it before
After watching it, I don't know how you could rule out the idea that Floyd just simply died of an overdose

From the moment police approached Floyd in his car, he was freaking out, looking like he was having a panic attack
He was resisting arrest (even if he wasn't trying to) - constantly jerking around, refusing to get in the squad car, etc.

While he's in the squad car - without anyone constraining his chest or neck - you can hear him saying "I can't breathe"
And he just looked like he was in a world of pain from the moment he was handcuffed

You don't have to spend any time justifying Chauvin's actions to realize that the state is going to have a really hard time proving causation beyond a reasonable doubt
No idea
But failing to give CPR at the appropriate time isn't murder

Pretty sure the cops called an ambulance
That should rule out depraved heart murder

Remember folks - this is not a civil trial
"Very unlikely that Floyd died of an overdose" means Chauvin is not guilty
"Very unlikely that Floyd died of an overdose" means Chauvin is not guilty
You already have two coroners giving two different causes of death
Floyd's guy said asphyxiation
County coroner said cardiac arrest
What happens when Chauvin's well-credentialed expert gets up and says overdose?

A normal juror says "well I guess we don't really know why Floyd died"
that means...not guilty
