In this episode, me and Jus go frame-by-frame through the George Floyd arrest, the Derek Chauvin trials, and the one topic that still splits rooms in half in 2025.

We lay it all out — no scripted talking points, no forced reverence:

  • The full arrest timeline (from the fake $20 to the 9+ minutes on the ground) 
  • Toxicology bombshell: 11 ng/mL fentanyl (medical examiner said “fatal under normal circumstances”), methamphetamine, THC, plus severe heart disease 
  • Defense argument: Floyd was dying before the knee even touched his neck 
  • Prosecution experts: Drugs didn’t kill him — asphyxia from the restraint did 
  • Why the jury rejected the overdose theory and convicted on murder 
  • The Thin Blue Line culture: Does it protect cops or enable bad ones? 
  • Chauvin’s 22.5-year federal sentence and the 2025 appeals status 
  • Biggest question on the table: Knowing everything we know now — drugs, health, training, policy — should Derek Chauvin still be in prison?

100% facts, court docs, bodycam, autopsy reports, and trial testimony. We’re not here to riot or rehab anyone’s image — just to ask the questions most shows won’t touch.
