What little I've seen, and and some are alleged.
In Kenosha, the police were responding to a 911 call. Without the contents of the call or the comments of the dispatcher to the police, it's conjecture what the police did or did not know.
Blake entered the woman's residence and took the kids and her car keys.
Blake later had a head lock on one of the responding police officers.
Blake was tased twice while resisting.
Someone, not the police, apparently shouted "drop the knife" twice. A knife was found on the floorboard when Blake tried entering the woman's car, where he already had the kids in the back seat. Blake's movements reaching into the car do not appear to be those of someone trying to sit in the driver's seat.
There is no way for the officer to know if any of the first shots were sufficient to stop Blake. It's possible that it was the last shot that did it.
George Floyd ....
He was in a car apparently breathing ok.
The 2 rookie police officers showed up and Floyd was not cooperative. Chauvin and Thao responded. Floyd was sitting in the police car when he says that he couldn't breathe. The medical examiner indicated that if Floyd had been found dead alone at home, his toxicology report would have been sufficient to treat it as an od.
The "I can't breathe" didn't start when he was on the ground.
Mike Freeman, the county attorney, and 3 prosecutors have been currently disqualified from the case by Judge Cahill for discussions with the medical examiner. The Judge cited "sloppy" work.
"The ruling related to a meeting some staff lawyers had with the Hennepin County medical examiner, a likely witness in the case, which allegedly violated the rules of professional conduct for attorneys.
“I think it was sloppy not to have someone [else] present [at a meeting with] a primary witness in this case,” Cahill said."
A defense attorney for one of the officers is requesting information regarding Floyd and his previous cooperation with police as a "snitch".
I'm not defending Chauvin by any means, but there may be a lot more to this story than meets the eye so far.
