do you girls ever get anything right?

Again the left found an opportunity to divide the races and inflame the situation. They used the scum of the earth to get to a means to an end.
As for the judge, what the fuck is he going to do? Issue a ruling that will put his family in danger? Not a chance.
Held back bystanders including an OFF DUTY firefighter not in uniform

Thao admitted that he could hear Floyd talking and could tell when Floyd ceased talking.
(Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3229, 3231.)
Thao heard Floyd say that he could not breathe. (Chauvin Tr. Exh. 49 [Thao BWC] at
20:18:37.)
Thao admitted that Floyd appeared unconscious during the restraint. (Fed. Tr. Trans. at
3231.)
Thao heard and acknowledged the bystanders’ repeated pleas that Floyd was in medical
distress and needed medical care. For instance:
(1) Thao heard Williams yell, “he’s non-responsive, right now. (Chauvin Tr. Exh. 49
[Thao BWC] at 8:25:33-:49.) Thao heard the bystanders say, “He’s not moving.”
(Chauvin Tr. Exh. 15 [Frazier Video] at 05:39:00-5:40:00.)
(2) Thao heard Hansen repeatedly asking him if Floyd had a pulse. (Chauvin Tr.
Exh. 15 [Frazier Video] at 04:54:00-05:47:00.)
(3) Thao heard Williams say Floyd is “not even resisting arrest right now.” (Chauvin
Tr. Exh. 49 [Thao BWC Video] at 8:24:40-:45.)
(4) Thao heard Funari say that Floyd was “passed out.” (Chauvin Tr. Exh. 49 [Thao
BWC Video] at 8:24:45.)
(5) Thao heard the bystanders yell, “Get the f _ _ k off him.” (Chauvin Tr. Exh. 49
[Thao BWC Video] at 8:25:16-:18.)
(6) Thao heard the bystanders yell, “Get off his neck.” (Chauvin Tr. Exh. 49 [Thao
BWC] at 8:21:41, 8:22:49.)
(7) Thao heard the bystanders yell, “Look at him [Floyd].” Thao later explained that
he took this to mean the officers needed to check on Floyd. (Chauvin Tr. Exh. 49
[Thao BWC Video] at 8:24:25; State’s Supp. Exh. 24 [BCA Video Interview with
Thao], at 01:11:20; see also State’s Supp. Exh. 23 (Transcript of BCA Video
Interview with Thao, at 27510).)
(8) Thao heard Hansen and Williams repeatedly demand that the officers check for a
pulse. (Chauvin Tr. Exh. 49 [Thao BWC Video] at 8:25:45-20:26:03.)
(9) Thao acknowledged that he could generally hear what the crowd was saying and
admitted responding to the crowd. (Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3295.)
(10) Thao also acknowledged that, at 8:23:48, he had heard the bystanders
expressing concern about the restraint, heard Floyd “again say he can’t breathe,”
and knew that Floyd’s “talking [was] getting weaker.” (Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3289-
3290.)
(11) Nearly a minute later, Thao heard the bystanders telling him that Floyd was not
talking. (Chauvin Tr. Exh. 49 [Thao BWC Video] at 8:24:20-:25.)
At a minimum, Thao’s actions reflected a subjective knowledge that Floyd was in
medical distress.
Thao increased the emergency call code from a Code 2 to a Code 3, meaning the
ambulance should use lights and sirens. Thao testified he did so because he believed Floyd was
undergoing excited delirium, which he characterized as a “serious medical condition.” (Fed. Tr.
Trans. at 3140, 3359.) Thao knew positional asphyxia can be a concern with excited delirium.
(Id. at 3223, 3367.)
Thao also testified that he checked with dispatch on the status of the ambulance “to
kind of figure out how far away the ambulance was.” (Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3153.)
In his post-incident BCA interview, Thao stated that he thought it was “a possibility” that
Floyd was experiencing a drug overdose. (State’s Supp. Exh. 24 [BCA Video Interview with
Thao], at 01:02:03; see Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3125-26.) Based on his training, Thao knew that a
person experiencing a drug overdose is in medical distress.
Thao’s contrary testimony implying he had more limited knowledge of the events is not
credible and is contradicted by overwhelming video evidence as well as by Thao’s own
admissions.
Got it
from the standard of care and risked death.
Thao received a total of 1,014 hours of MPD training on the topics discussed above,
including procedural justice training, crisis intervention training, defensive tactics training, and
CPR training. (Blackwell, Fed. Tr. Trans. at 988-989, 996; Fed. Tr. Exhs. 59 [Thao Workforce
Training], 61 [2018 Annual Refresher Defensive Tactics PowerPoint], 75 [April 2012
Administrative Announcement to Show Positional Asphyxia Training Video], 76 [April 2012
Positional Asphyxia Training Video]; Chauvin Tr. Exh. 111 [CPR Training Guide].)
Thao was trained to place a subject in the side recovery position as soon as possible to
alleviate the risk of positional asphyxia. Thao admitted that he was also trained to place a
person suffering from excited delirium in the side recovery position to avoid positional
asphyxia. (Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3367.) Despite his training, Thao knew that Chauvin, Kueng, and
Lane had restrained Floyd in the prone position with all three atop of him for many minutes,
including for minutes after Floyd was no longer talking, moving, and appeared to have passed
out.
Thao was regularly trained on how to provide CPR. Because Thao received MPD’s
training, Thao knew the importance of performing CPR as quickly as possible, including while
waiting for EMS to arrive. (Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3149.) And Thao also acknowledged that an officer
cannot “ignore” when a subject says they cannot breathe and that “it is a red flag if someone in
your custody suddenly stops talking.” (Id. at 3202-3203, 3170.) Yet Thao knew that no one was
performing CPR on Floyd even after Floyd stopped talking and even after Floyd appeared
unconscious.
As with the other officers, Thao had been trained only to use appropriate force
proportional to a subject’s resistance and to evaluate the use of force and de-escalate as
necessary throughout a restraint. (Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3162, 3171-73; Fed. Tr. Exh. 61 [2018
Annual Refresher Defensive Tactics PowerPoint]; Chauvin Tr. Exh. 119 [MPD 2018 Use of Force
In-Service PPT].) Thao also acknowledged that an officer cannot continue to use force on
someone who is not resisting, even a person suspected to be suffering from excited delirium.
(Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3313, 3223.) Thao was also trained that it is unnecessary to use force on
someone who is unconscious or does not have a pulse. (Id. at 3177.) Yet Thao knew Chauvin,
Kueng, and Lane continued restraining Floyd after he stopped resisting, was no longer speaking,
and appeared unconscious.
Thao was trained on the risk of injury when officers administer force to a person’s head,
neck, and sternum. Thao knew that MPD policy prohibits using a conscious neck restraint
unless the subject is “actively resisting.” (Fed. Tr. Trans. at 3194-3195.) Yet Thao knew that
Chauvin had his knee on Floyd’s neck and that Chauvin’s knee remained on Floyd’s neck long
after Floyd was no longer resisting or speaking. (State’s Supp. Exh. 24 [BCA Video Interview
with Thao], at 01:05:29-:54, 01:08:17-:26 (Thao acknowledging he could see Chauvin’s left knee
on Floyd’s neck and back).) Indeed, Thao acknowledged that at some point during the restraint
Floyd was not resisting and “was just laying there.” (Id. at 01:32:18-01:32:38.
)
Thao knew that Chauvin was not using a trained neck restraint. (State’s Supp. Exh. 24
(BCA Video Interview with Thao], at 01:05:56-01:06:06; see also State’s Supp. Exh. 23
[Transcript of BCA Video Interview with Thao], at 27507.) And Thao admitted that he was
obligated to stop another police officer if he saw that officer using excessive force. (Fed. Tr.
Trans. at 3177-3178.) Yet Thao stood by and did not stop Chauvin during the entire 9 minute
and 24 second restrain
So it all worked out for the best.
Resisting arrest is a felony as well
