1. Opens the door for charges against the other three cops. 

2.  Hints at a possible coverup by the prosecutor related to going easy on the cops.

I don't think it is as much that, as it dictates the charges against Derek Chauvin.  If kneeling on his neck was a direct cause of Floyd's death, 3rd degree murder, if not manslaughter may be the best they can get.

Hints at a possible coverup by the prosecutor related to going easy on the cops.

Possible, but that is going towards the conspiracy theory crowd.  More likely it speaks to the competency of the medical examiner/coroner.

Lol, or the competency of whoever did the autopsy for the family. We need to get it right.

And unless he agrees to a judge with no jury, how will he be tried?

He can take solace in the fact that Minnesota does not have a death penalty. There is no impartial jury, nor is there anyone who will be able to really defend him. He has a record of problems as a police officer and I believe he was kind of a bully. What ever the penalty is, he's going to get all of it.

You are correct, I was going to add that, but the time to edit my post had run out.

Agreed.  What really concerns me is that the ME speculated about alcohol and drugs before any toxicology had been completed.  Also, he should have taken the scene into account.  True, there were no physical signs of asphyxiation, but that is not uncommon.  It is also true that there were no signs of strangulation, but I don't think anyone ever accused the officers of strangulation.

Well duuhhh! That was pretty much a given that it was a homicide. The three other cops stood by and did nothing so of course they need to charged and tried as accessories to murder. I doubt there will be any cover up.  It has gone too far for going easy on those cops. Just too much evidence to the contrary.

Floyd's cause and manner of death remain pending and is being investigated by local, state and federal law enforcement, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office said in a statement.

There is only one forensic pathologist I would trust with this...Michael Baden.

Well guess what - he IS the pathologist whom the Floyd family hired!  The new results are his.

It's amazing how often people buying opinions get the response they want.

It's almost like there's  an industry of experts who sell opinions to litigants.

Or restated: It's almost like there's  an industry of experts who sell opinions to prosecutors.

It isn't always a one way street.
