"The restraint did not kill him. We have had many pathologists, medical examiner's around the world email us and tell us what they believe the cause of death would be ranging from the COVID he had just gotten over to the drug amount in his system to excited delirium — all kinds of reasons for him to have died."
Gray's client Lane and two other officers — J. Alexander Kueng and Tou Thao — are charged as accomplices in the alleged murder of Floyd. A fourth officer, Derek Chauvin, is charged with murder. Attorneys for Thao and Lane have previously asked for their cases to be dismissed.reached out to Gray's offices for additional remarks about his client's defense Saturday morning.
"The key here is the amount of fentanyl in his system which was 11 nanograms, which is three times the amount an ordinary person would have to die. Three nanograms would kill you. He had 11," Gray said, noting that several body camera angles show Floyd had a"white substance" on the back of his tongue during the time of arrest.
Gray repeatedly said he's requesting a change of venue for the trial because local officials are concerned there could be riots and protests depending on the outcome of the case. He also said it's very unlikely Lane can get a"fair trial" in Minneapolis due to its high-profile nature. Gray criticized public officials and Democratic National Convention attendees — many of whom are lawyers — for saying"George King" was"murdered." ."He killed himself.
The attorney for one of the ex-Minneapolis Police Officer's charged in George Floyd's May 25 death said the victim"killed himself," pointing to body camera footage from the arrest as well as toxicology reports which he said show Floyd had three times the amount of fentanyl in his system.
I don’t blame Police officer for his death. When your in handcuffs sit still mind the police u got caught your serve your time the police have a right to hold you from escaping I feel Floyd killed himself. And forced others to keep killing 4 him
Hmmm ... In most states, death, unintentional or not, that occurs during the commission of felony qualifies as murder in some degree. Civil rights violation, excessive force, assault? Pick your felony.
Not guilty!
Fired Hammer for publishing that Eastman op-ed yet?
Keep telling yourself that!
Sick.
Id say knee!
I guess George shouldn't have put his knee on his neck.
Does this go both ways? Could a person choke a cop to death that had COVID or an opioid addiction and get off?
There's a dirtbag
Why is he on the air spewing nonsense when this should be said within a courtroom? How is he allowed to manipulate jurors minds before they get picked?
Wow. To think that a person getting the neck kneeled on won’t kill them. Perhaps the attorney can let someone kneel on his neck for eight minutes to see if he lives.
Sad! Not agree.
“three times the amount of fentanyl” three times what besides this entire article being utter bullshit, that lede is literally meaningless.
Bull
“three times the amount of fentanyl” three times what besides this entire article being utter bullshit, that lede is literally meaningless
Wow just grasping at any kind of bullshit huh. Must be a Trump Associate this sounds as stupid as Trump
This officer needs to change lawyers immediately.
This fool again. Every day he throws more crap at the wall.
How do these people sleep at night after they tell such blatant lies?
This fucker’s name is EARL GRAY? No wonder he’s just teabagging us.
Hmm. Not sure that's going to fly. Though fentanyl is an extremely dangerous drug which should never be taken without a doctor overseeing its use.
Oh please, let me be on that jury.
He was tripping balls
An insult to the profession. No serious attorney litigates his case by going on CNN. All you need to know about him...
Rriigghhtt.... 🙄
