CONTRIBUTING FACTORS
Video shows Chauvin pinning Floyd to the ground, his knee on his neck, as Floyd yelled “I can’t breathe” before his body went limp last May 25. But defense attorneys are tasked with casting doubt on whether the former officer was directly responsible for the Black man’s death. They’ve sought to argue that other factors, such as drug use, may have killed him.
