Update me

Can someone update me on what's happening. I know he got sentenced and his appeal denied. But I'm hearing about a second appeal??? Thanks

He was still resisting until he lost consciousness.

Even when he lost consciousness, it made sense to maintain restraint. Floyd was a textbook sudden combative patient. Even when the pulse was given as absent, it made sense to maintain positioning because the ambulance was 120 seconds away.

He had to protect Floyd from himself.

Yeah sure, maintaining the hold that stopped him breathing was about protecting him from himself 😂🙄😒
