Cops' lawyers make bombshell claims in George Floyd case: Bodycam shows Floyd ingesting fatal amount of drugs before arrest;
he died of overdose

Allegations to shake up the case

A defense attorney for the fired Minneapolis police officer charged with murder
in connection with the death of George Floyd is asking a judge to drop all
charges, arguing the 46-year-old man's death was allegedly from a drug
overdose and not caused by the officer planting his knee in the back of Floyd's neck.



"Put simply, Mr. Floyd could not breathe because he had ingested a lethal
dose of fentanyl and, possibly, a speedball. Combined with sickle cell trait,
his pre-existing heart conditions, Mr. Floyd's use of fentanyl and
methamphetamine most likely killed him," Nelson argued. "Adding fentanyl
and methamphetamine to Mr. Floyd's existing health issues was tantamount
to lighting a fuse on a bomb."
