Live Updates: Floyd Had Coronavirus; New Charges Filed in His Death
By AP, Staff • Published June 3, 2020 • Updated on June 3, 2020 at 10:50 pm
The most serious charge was filed against Derek Chauvin, who was caught on video pressing his knee to Floyd’s neck and now must defend himself against an accusation of second-degree murder.
The three other officers at the scene — Thomas Lane, J. Kueng and Tou Thao — were charged for the first time with aiding and abetting second-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. All four were fired last week.

Floyd Tested Positive for COVID-19 in April
A full autopsy of George Floyd, the handcuffed black man who died after being restrained by Minneapolis police, was released Wednesday and provides several clinical details, including that Floyd had tested positive for COVID-19.
The 20-page report released by the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office came with the family’s permission and after the coroner’s office released summary findings Monday that Floyd had a heart attack while being restrained by officers, and classified his May 25 death as a homicide.
The report by Chief Medical Examiner Andrew Baker spelled out clinical details, including that Floyd tested positive for COVID-19 on April 3 but appeared asymptomatic. The report also noted Floyd’s lungs appeared healthy but he had some narrowing of arteries in the heart.
The county’s earlier summary report listed fentanyl intoxication and recent methamphetamine use under “other significant conditions” but not under “cause of death.” The full report’s footnotes noted that signs of fentanyl toxicity can include “severe respiratory depression” and seizures.

There is also a 24 page legal document at the site detailing
what happened and the probable cause under which the officers
are being charged.
It seems George Floyd was properly arrested, refused to get
into the cop car, and was then subdued and put on the ground.
It is possible that the cop stayed on the back of the guys
neck longer than he should have . . . But the autopsy report also
lists the guy had used fentanyl and methamphetamines.
Note that this is an associated press article and they are
well known liars.
Zim.
