"An overdose of excessive force and racism" killed Floyd, family said after Friday's hearing. George Floyd’s family and their attorneys gathered outside a Minneapolis courtroom this afternoon livid over the defense teams' arguments about how Floyd died. The defense teams point to drugs in Floyd’s system at his time of death as the cause, not former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin’s knee on Floyd’s neck for nearly 9 minutes.
