Derek Chauvin trial: Medical witness testifies that George Floyd died 'from a lack of oxygen'

A medical expert who specializes in breathing has told jurors in Derek Chauvin's murder trial that George Floyd died from a 'low level of oxygen' after he was pinned to the ground by the Minneapolis police officer.  Dr Martin Tobin was the first to testify for the prosecution on Thursday on what has become the most contested issue of Chauvin's trial so far: Floyd's cause of death.  The expert witness, who has worked in critical care and pulmonology for more than 45 years, told jurors Floyd's breathing had become so shallow his lungs could not provide enough oxygen to his head and heart. Dr Tobin said there were four forces that caused this fatal shallow breathing: The fact that Floyd was turned prone on the street, had his hands cuffed behind his back and had a knee on his neck and on his back. The court was shown a graphic - a 'snapshot in time' - depicting the officers' positions on Floyd. Using this graphic, Dr Tobin told them of the horrific impact the four forces would have had on Floyd's death. Original Article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/artic...
