Is she treating him callously? Isn't the suspicion that she's doing this so their assets don't get seized?

Oh true entirely possible. Spousal support comes in many colors i suppose

It has also been rumored that they're cousins.

Attorney for Thomas Lane, one of the four Floyd officers, has filed a motion to dismiss his charges.

Lane’s attorney, Earl Gray, filed a motion Tuesday to dismiss the charges against Lane as well as documents supporting the motion, which include transcripts from Lane’s body worn camera and of an interview with another officer at the scene and pictures from inside the vehicle Floyd was in at the time.

The motion says there is a lack of evidence to establish probable cause for the charges.

I've had a Rogue-like white streak right up front in the middle since I was like 22.

Sad I can't make the obvious archibaldingcrane joke...

It's actually not the oxygen that lets you talk, but way to make it known how dumb you are Derek.

Cops have been using that line forever. If you can talk you can breathe. So do paramedics, nurses, doctor's, emt's, firefighters, etc. Mind numb to drama after drama seeker after seeker, shit catches up quick.

Well clearly it isn't strictly true and is a time-variable process. Apparently 8 minutes of severe, but not complete, airway restriction does kill you.

Weird.

Earl Gray? "He was just teabagging."

Transcripts of footage recorded by body cameras fitted to Mr Lane and Mr Kueng show Mr Floyd said more than 20 times he could not breathe as he was restrained by the officers in a Minneapolis street.

They confronted him outside a convenience store where he was suspected of having used a forged $20 note to buy cigarettes.

At one point, a handcuffed Mr Floyd, while pinned down on the road next to the police car, gasps that he cannot breathe, adding: "You're going to kill me, man."

Mr Chauvin, who is shown in bystander footage appearing to kneel on Mr Floyd's neck for nearly eight minutes, replies: "Then stop talking, stop yelling.

"It takes heck of a lot of oxygen to talk."

The transcripts show Mr Floyd appears co-operative at the beginning of the arrest, repeatedly apologising to the officers after they approach his parked car.

Mr Lane asks Mr Floyd to show his hands at least 10 times before ordering him to get out of the vehicle.

In response to one of the demands to see his hands, Mr Floyd says: "Man, I got, I got shot the same way, Mr Officer, before." It is not clear what he is referring to.

At one point Mr Lane says: "Why's he getting all squirrelly and not showing us his hands and just being all weird like that?"

The officers then handcuff Mr Floyd and try to put him into the back of their police car. As they do, Mr Floyd becomes agitated, repeatedly pleading that he is claustrophobic.

Mr Lane asks if he is "on something". Mr Floyd replies: "I'm scared, man."

According to another document, Mr Lane told investigators that once in the car, Mr Floyd began "thrashing back and forth".

When asked "So he pushed himself out of the car?" Mr Lane replied: "Yeah".

The investigator then asks: "Versus you guys pulling him out of the car?" and Mr Lane says: "Yeah, because the goal is to keep him in the car, we didn't want him coming out again."

Pinned on the ground, according to the transcript, Mr Floyd cries out a dozen times: "Mama."

He says: "Can't believe this, man. Mom, love you. Love you.

"Tell my kids I love them. I'm dead."

At one point, when Mr Floyd continues to plead he can't breathe, Mr Lane asks Mr Chauvin: "Should we roll him on his side?"

Mr Chauvin responds: "No, he's staying put where we got him."

Mr Lane then says: "Okay. Just worry about the excited delirium or whatever."

Mr Chauvin replies: "Well that's why we got the ambulance coming," and Mr Lane says "Okay, I suppose".
