The family of George Floyd is taking his autopsy into their own hands.
We’re going to take custody back of George Floyd’s body, and we’re bringing in Dr. Michael Baden to perform an independent autopsy because we saw in the Eric Garner case and so many other cases where they have these people who work with the city come up with things that are such an illusion.”
Dr. Michael Baden is a well-known medical examiner who also testified in the notorious O.J Simpson trial and also performed an autopsy Michael Brown, the Ferguson, MO teenager that was shot and killed by a police officer.
The preliminary findings from the medical examiner’s office states that “the combined effects of Mr. Floyd being restrained by police, his underlying health conditions and any potential intoxicants in his system likely contributed to his death.”
He was fired from the Minneapolis Police Department after Floyd’s death.
