As a bystander, if one was to engage and push the officer off of the guy's throat what would be the outcome?

If a citizen determined that action was required to save a citizen's life from state abuses, what would the savior of the citizen be charged with?

you'd probably be charged with interfering with a peace officer and obstruction. In this case it would have gotten thrown out.

You would be arrested and charge at a minimum of probably assault. And oh yes probably have the same thing happen to you that the detained was having done to them at the time.

If a citizen had done that before Mr. Floyd died the outcome would have probably been different (Mr. Floyd not dead) and both him and the citizen would be a world of legal trouble. Such a shit situation, those cops should all fry.

Agreed, it all depends on before or after he is dead. I wonder what a good lawyer could do in any case though if you interfered because they could make the case that they were unnecessarily putting the man's life in danger and the good Samaritan saw that and therefore did the right thing.

you can't ever interfere with the police, but this officer was absolutely wrong. and I'm shocked his partner didn't even try to do anything to stop it.

examples will be made of these guys and rightfully so
I don't think "examples" are effective. Until the culture of "us vs them" is removed we will continue to see shit like this.

It is widely understood that if you back an animal into a corner it will attack. So I don't understand how it is not understood that if you put a human into a painful position they will react against it.

All this BS over petty things is what really irritates me.
