I was under the impression they said he swallowed a whole bunch of the drug because he didn't want to be charged with possession.

Interesting...
It says that fentanyl was a contributing factor but not the main cause.

Quote:
George Floyd’s heart disease and use of fentanyl were contributing factors to his death, but they were not the direct cause, the medical examiner who performed his autopsy testified on Friday in the trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin.

Us Aussies have the highest consumption of cannabis/capita in the world. But good old alcohol is the drug of choice behind closed doors.

Lot’s of alcohol here even though it’s a dry county and we are know for good quality weed.

The main cause of that poor man’s death was he had the life crushed out of him by a brute.

From what I understand, it was the fentanyl that made him panic.
Had he stayed in the police vehicle, he may been alive today.
Did you watch the video I am referring to?

/\I did read the article.
It’s not a good idea to put a knee on anyone’s neck.
Who knows what medical conditions a person might have?Who knows what kind of medication someone might be on prescribed or illegal?Who knows if the person is in mental crisis?
I doubt my neck could have withstood that and I have low blood pressure.
Anyway this is the hot dog thread.
