The Derek Chauvin trial {Mod Edit: Guilty on all charges}

The defense is asking a lot of questions about drugs and Floyd's health

What difference does that make?

Even if Floyd did have a weakened heart due to drug use and a perfectly healthy man would have survived the knee to the neck it was still the stress/panic/trauma of the knee to the neck that triggered his death.

What would that change?

Wouldn't we still be here at this same trial with the same charges?

Prehaps the argument is that the knee had nothing to do with the death...that there was minimal force...and Floyd died of a heart attack. I don’t think that is likely to be true, but spitballing here
