Does that negate what the officer did, in your opinion?
It doesn't negate. Only inventing a Time Machine could "negate" what happened.
A better question is if the autopsy should either exonerate the cop or lessen the charge. I'll let expert testimony, learned opinion and legal precedent hash all that out. What I do know is that patrolling our Urban Congos is a job that should be handed over to 100% Black LEOs from top to bottom. Let's see how that works out after a 10 year trial. Let's be sure to keep track of all the "Unarmed Deaths", if this Social Experiment I would love to see happen...ever played out.
Not to be contrary, but not even the invention of the time machine (would) change anything. Given that already happened thanks to CERN and the discovery of dual singularities, overlapping man-made black holes.

^ :?:

Has anyone asked the question why did the officer feel the need to pin Floyd to the ground in the first place?

Is there any video that shows a full uninterrupted flow of the whole encounter...?

Floyd is first taken down by the tire on sidewalk side. He is moved into the backseat where he continued struggling, eventually able to get out the other side, taken down on the road side where he was subdued by three officers for several minutes.

The entire event is orchestrated in my opinion.

Too many coincidences and questions being left unanswered, reminiscent of the Las Vegas shooting.

Heard he was not getting
into the police car. A good
reason? Don't think so.

What if he was in, still fighting, made his way out the other side?

It sounds like he was resisting arrest. So, the cop was pissed off and decided to use unnecessary force to restrain him once he was cuffed. Does anyone think the cop thought Floyd might die as a result? Is it possible he thought Floyd was okay despite him (supposedly) saying that he couldn't breathe? Why are we supposed to assume that he murdered him with a cell phone recording it all? And the other 3 cops just decided to let the murder take place rather than intervene because they wanted Floyd dead as well? Or did they think he was okay?

It's hard to think like a cop
like him. And the other cops.
He must have known the do's
and don'ts of subduing a person.
We just can't have this happening.
Does anyone remember the heavy
set black man who was selling
cigarettes outside a door front?
Didn't he get strangled also by
a cop? he didn't resist.

It doesn’t matter what he had done. He was handcuffed, face down. If he ever was a threat, he no longer was one. That cop is a waste of human flesh. The man was begging for his life, face down, cuffed...and he left his knee on his neck. Horrible excuse for a human.

In my opinion the policeman murdered George Floyd with intent.

Place your knees on the floor. Now place a hand in your pocket and lean on that knee. 30% more pressure.

Dont believe? Get out your scale and get on your knees.
