Yes, more challenges ahead for cops.

As you may have seen in the trial, however, the fentanyl OD argument was thoroughly debunked by the prosecution, as George hadn't been reacting as though he was on the process of an OD.

He had four times the lethal dosage in his system. He had 11 nanograms in his system and the corner stated he had ruled people’s deaths due to ODing on Fentanyl with as little as 3 nanograms in their system. Not to mention he had meth, Covid-19, and heart disease in his system. He was a walking time bomb.

Yes, one can die with 11ng in the liver, kidneys and/or blood, but a large person like George can survive with this much, and up to 14ng in one of those 3 areas. One of the sources, here.

Stop making things up lol.

He overdosed. Fentanyl Floyd. Dont pretend you're surprised.

No justice served here.

Including meth?

I don't know. The prosecution lawyers argued - successfully, it seems - that the amount meth was not significant.

If I were to guess, perhaps the meth was also taken to counteract a drowsiness side effect of fentanyl.

Every legal expert on this case said that prosecution failed miserably - they didn't get their verdict, the mob that literally murdered 28 people since last summer using this as their excuse did.

Doesn’t matter the most amount, what matters is that they have ruled people with 3 ng an overdose death while Floyd had 11 ng combined with meth, Covid-19, and congenital heart disease.

This was 6 days ago. There are other notes hare on Saidit about the larger size of George, contrasted with someone who could OD with 11 ng. And as shown - at length - in the courrtoom and by doctors - George was not in the process of an OD. He was unable to breathe. One can see this clearly in the video. Medical professionals have proven this.

This is a complete lie and shows you didn't even watch the trial.

The fentanyl overdose was proved by science but obviously the jury wasn't literate let alone science minded.

He did the dying thing of someone dying of a fatal OD, which I find to be rather compelling?
