I knew it the moment I saw the video, the knee to the carotid is what killed him!   

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — An autopsy commissioned for George Floyd's family found that he died of asphyxiation due to neck and back compression when a Minneapolis police officer held his knee on Floyd's neck until he stopped breathing, ignoring his cries of distress, the family's attorneys said Monday.

The autopsy by a doctor who also examined Eric Garner's body found the compression cut off blood to Floyd's brain, and that the pressure of other officers' knees on his back made it impossible for him to breathe, attorney Ben Crump said. He called for the third-degree murder charge against Officer Derek Chauvin to be upgraded to first-degree murder and for three other officers to be charged.
