It isn't meant to be taken seriously.The argument that George Floyd died of natural causes while Derek Chauvin happened to be kneeling on his neck is so farcical it’s hard to believe anybody could take it seriously

It's meant to provide an excuse. And the jury is perfectly entitled under law to accept it as the excuse.
Has the Rodney King trial really fallen that far down the memory hole?
I have a lot less respect for defense lawyers than I used to have, and courts and juries. Now it depends. That expert witness the defense called should have his credentials pulled, I have a lot less respect for credentials than I used to, as well.
