Update, February 16, 2023. In retrospect, I don't think Derek Chauvin was racially motivated to do what he did to George Floyd. It was Chauvin's similar handling of a teenage boy who was over six feet and well over 200 pounds a year or two prior that influenced Chauvin's actions against George Floyd. Chauvin had done the same thing to the teen that Chauvin did to George Floyd, and the boy did not die, although the boy did lose consciousness at one point but then came to. Additionally, the recent spate of fentanyl deaths also points to George Floyd possibly swallowing fentanyl to hide the evidence, meaning he might actually have died no matter how he was treated. HOWEVER, Chauvin's inability to listen to the crowd and Floyd's plea for mercy prior to his death is still a haunting scene. Chauvin was scapegoated and I was one of those who believed the worst of Chauvin. I believe Chauvin was guilty of gross incompetence and manslaughter, but not murder-1 as I had previously advocated.
