I am a conservative law and order and police supporter. But after watching the video IMHO I don’t think it rises to a case of murder by any means because I don’t think it was his intent to kill George Floyd. Yet I don’t understand why at least 3 cops on scene can’t get a man in handcuffs under control. His callousness even after he obviously had lost consciousness is criminal. I think the best outcome would be a conviction of manslaughter or some sort of negligent homicide. I see people who want to talk about George Floyd’s past but say the officer’s past is irrelevant. You can’t have it both ways. Like I said I’m a law enforcement supporter but if this was a black cop doing this to a white citizen would you defend the cop? Ferguson , Missouri was a lie. So many other charges of excessive force weren’t true. But I think this one has legs. This is a bad cop.
