I agree. Chauvin did not murder anyone but he may have contributed to this guys death, and at a minimum he did nothing to help a dying man. I don't have a lot of sympathy for these George Floyd types who often get what's coming to them, but I don't think the police or any other State agency has the right to abuse power. Amazing how f'ed up things have gotten.

Agree, but that doesn’t let Chauvin off the hook. Should have sensed that the man has no fight in him. In fact, as we know, he was dying.

Also, he was cuffed. He wasn't going anywhere.

If cops are restraining a guy and are concerned he might get up and run away, why not zip tie his legs? No need to sit on him if that was done.
