I believe that Derek Chauvin was guilty of manslaughter, but not murder. The man is obviously a bully, but if he had wanted to kill George Floyd, it wouldnât have taken him nearly nine minutes to do it. I suspect he kept his knee on Floydâs neck because he didnât like his attitude. After all, lying face down with his hands cuffed behind him, Floyd wasnât going anywhere. On the other hand, there was no way for the cop to know that the perp had a huge amount of fentanyl and God knows what other crap in his system.
