George Floyd and the cop had beef from the club days they worked together. We don't know if Chauvin was a dirty cop and Floyd was his CI. Given a chance to put his hand on him he may have simply silenced his CI who was going to sell him out for more money and therefore drugs, to the PD. Floyd was known habitual drug addict and felon. The police surely would have leveraged that.

Race had NOTHING to do here. Killing a person for a reason did and Chauvin was betting he would clear the bar on this one.

He bet wrong.

Very fair take. He just didn't count on the video.
