George Floyd and Derek Chauvin
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Day ten of the</span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/derekchauvin/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">#DerekChauvin</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> trial continued today. Dr. Lindsey Thomas, a forensic pathologist, testified that </span><a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/?s=george+floyd&;post_type=post"><span style="font-weight: 400;">George Floyd</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> died due to “subdual restraint and compression” from law enforcement officers.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The pathologist who testified that she had performed over 5,000 autopsies gave very critical testimony for the state, in which she testified that she wasn&#8217;t being paid to do so.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thomas also testified that Floyd wouldn’t have died that night, if it had not been for the subdual restraint and compression from the officer, Derek Chauvin.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With so many videos and from different angles, Thomas said she never had a case like this. &#8220;In this case, I believe the primary mechanism of death is asphyxia or low oxygen,&#8221; she told the court.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Making it clear that George Floyd did in fact die at the hands of officers, Thomas said, &#8220;The point is that it&#8217;s due to law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression. What it means to me is that the activities of the law enforcement officers resulted in Mr. Floyd&#8217;s death.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As you know, Thomas is one of many witnesses who support the fact that George Floyd would still be alive had it not been for Derek Chauvin&#8217;s knee on his neck, which many have testified stopped him from breathing.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you recall, one witness&#8211;the longest-serving Minneapolis Police Officer, Lt. Zimmerman stated it was &#8220;Totally unnecessary,&#8221; when asked his opinion about</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">the strategy used against George Floyd. Zimmerman continued, “Pulling him down to the ground facedown and putting a knee on the neck for that amount of time is just uncalled for.”</span></p>
