the defence called dr david fowler. he told the court it was his opinion that derek chauvin�*s knee did not impact the vital structures of george floyd's neck, and the cause of death should be undetermined. so, in my opinion, mr floyd had a sudden cardiac arrhythmia, i or cardiac arrhythmia due to his atherosclerotic and j hypertensive heart disease — you can write that down - multiple different ways — during his restraint - and subdural by the police, or restraint by the police. i and then, his significant contributory conditions i would be — since i've already put the heart disease - in part one, he would have the toxicology, i the fentanyl _ and methamphetamine. there is exposure to a vehicle exhaust — so potentially- carbon monoxide poisoning. the prosecution's expert testimony dismantled that argument. george floyd did not die from a primary cardiac event, and he did not die from a drug overdose. there was one moment in the video where i heard one of the officers saying, "i think he's passing out." that w

how did the defence go about questioning them? the defence is contesting that argument. they will bring their own witnesses to dispute that training. that's why whenever they cross—examine any of the witnesses from the police department, they have really fixated on what is a choke hold and what is a neck restraint. for instance, in the defence did get an admission from the lieutenant and the sergeant that, yes, they do train on some necklace straight with up to a certain extent. it looks so far, because we have had about eight different members of the minneapolis police department testify, which is highly unusual. there is usually an america called what is —— what is called a thin blue line, officers protect other officers, that is why it is hard to protect and —— convicted officer. it looks like there throwing derek chauvin under there throwing derek chauvin under the bus, so what they're trained to do is distance themselves from their actions and say that this is not how we work. 50 actions and say that this is not how we work. , , ., ., we work. so help me u

the defence is trying to say that george floyd tells the officers arresting him that he ate too many drugs. the prosecution came back to redirect and clean up that testimony, and they said that with proper context, what he now here's george floyd saying is i ain't do no drugs, which directly contradicts what the defence was trying to say in the original clip. the defence's entire argument is that george floyd died from a drug overdose and underlying health problems. {iii from a drug overdose and underlying health problems.— health problems. of course, that's reall , health problems. of course, that's really. really _ health problems. of course, that's really, really important _ health problems. of course, that's really, really important points - health problems. of course, that's really, really important points and| really, really important points and extremely sensitive in what has been an incredibly harrowing case so far. absolutely. the defence was having a good day trying to poke holes into the testimonies of the people we heard today, especially people who were directly involv

both the defence and the prosecution have now finished presenting their cases. closing arguments will take place on monday. over the past couple of weeks, northern ireland has seen some of the worst unrest since the signing of the good friday agreement more than 20 years ago. much of it has been sparked by the implementation of the northern ireland protocol — which was designed to help the post—brexit transition. it was put in place to prevent controls on the land border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland. free movement was seen as essential to the peace agreement that ended the long history of violence in northern ireland. but given that brexit meant most of the uk leaving the eu's single market, border checks would have to go somewhere — the solution borisjohnson chose was to put those checks at the sea border within the uk between northern ireland, and great britain. since the northern ireland protocol has come into force, some people in northern ireland are farfrom happy — in particular loyalists, who resist anything they think coul

the defence secretary outlined the findings to mp5. there can be no doubt prejudice played a part in some of the commissioners' decisions. in some cases, the iwgc assumed communities of forgotten personnel would not recognise or value individual forms of commemoration. in other cases, they were simply not provided with the names or burial locations. mr speaker, on behalf of the commonwealth war graves commission and the government both of the time and today, i want to apologise for the failures to live up to their founding principles all those years ago and express deep regret that it has taken so long to rectify the situation. as we think of the hundreds of thousands of muslims, sikhs, hindus, animists and those of no religion who have not been commemorated because they did not fit the white ideal of what is supposed to fit into uniform. i think it's important for those of all faiths and none to be ensured that they are valued not only in our armed forces, but in the police, in the nhs or wherever they serve. the inquiry was set up af

the defence what you have heard today. tte: defence began their case what you have heard today. tt9 defence began their case today after the prosecution rested, they called some witnesses who were also at the scene, one of them, shawanda hill was in the same car as george floyd but something that the fence one to do from the outset was to introduce an arrest video from 2019 about a year before george floyd died and the reason they wanted to do so was to show that he had a pattern of drug use and thejudge to show that he had a pattern of drug use and the judge warned the jury drug use and the judge warned the jury that this was not to be taken to the sign of the character of george floyd but specifically about the impact of drug use on his system, so he allowed limited video to be shunned and we saw a much longer body —— cam and body one camera from police officer 0fficer chang who responded to the scene who responded to the first radio calls when the first officers responding came to the scene and the whole big picture here is that the defence is trying to show that george f

what i mean by that is, the defence a few weeks ago moved for thejury to is, the defence a few weeks ago moved for the jury to sequester and thejudge denied moved for the jury to sequester and the judge denied that motion. the issue now is with such an explosive incident occurring so close to trial�*s actually being held, if in fact this is found to have any bearing in the minds of those jurors, then the defence is going to have a serious issue around appeal and potentially moving forward in this trial, i don't think that is outside the realm of possibilities. i do think, however, if thejudge elects to go forward with the case, it is very possible that jurors may have this on their minds during deliberations as yet another example of how american policing does not work the same for black people here in america. the same for black people here in america-— in america. charles coleman, thank you _ in america. charles coleman, thank you for _ in america. charles coleman, thank you for being _ in america. charles coleman, thank you for being on - in america. charles coleman, thank you

what you make of the attempt of the defence in the chauvin—floyd case to have the jury sequestered? i anticipated that he would do so. it is concerning how the jury may be impacted by this in either direction. the jury could grow more adversarial or have an increased bias against former officer chauvin because of this and just being frustrated that yet again as they are away from their family and loved ones dealing with this trial, that here in the nearing location in the twin cities that an officer has now killed someone. it could also cut the other way where jurors are sympathetic to the police and being that this is a white female that killed mr wright that they may be sympathetic and cut the other direction and move for an acquittal. the united states has insisted it had nothing to do with an attack on a key nuclear site in iran, which the country blames on israel. reports from inside israel itself suggest that the mossad agency carried out a cyber attack on the underground nuclear plant. this all comes as diplomatic efforts are underway by america and several european countries

he rejected the defence theory that floyd's drug use, and underlying health problems, were to blame. have you formed an opinion to a reasonable degree of medical certainty on the cause of his death? yes, i have. would you please tell the jury what that opinion or opinions are? yes. mr floyd died from a low level of oxygen and this caused damage to his brain and it also caused a pea arrhythmia that caused his heart to stop. professor tobin also rejection the suggestion that the drug fentanyl was in some way responsible for george floyd's death. you're familiar with the way people die from fentanyl? yes, very. do they or do they not go into a coma before they die from a fenta nyl overdose? yes, they will. was mr floyd ever in a coma? no. thank you, doctor tobin. 0ur correspondent larry madowo has been watching the trial in minneapolis. doctor tobin's testimony today has left the defence�*s case looking weaker than it probably has at any point in the last two weeks. his testimony that george floyd died from oxygen deficiency which led to his brain to stop was so significant because it
