To what extent is officer James Kueng responsible for the death of George Floyd?

He was 26 years old, on the job for about a seven days, and his direct supervisor (FTO) was Derek Chauvin. At the incident, he was mainly doing crowd control.

Will he serve prison time?

At some point you need to stand up to your supervisor for the greater good, this was one of those times. No one would applaud him for it and perhaps he would be demoted but that'd be a better outcome than what he currently is in for

The guy who was leaning on Mr. Floyd's neck is the one that should go to prison. He was a rookie cop and I am certain the officials don't teach that in the academy anywhere. Not only did the guilty policeman lean on him without let, but he made jeering statements while the man pleaded breath and possibly his life.

@MaryJanine If you are complicit you are just as guilty.

@Zonuss I wasn't there. I didn't know what was going on in Minnesota until after the fact. By then, the victim was dead.

You do not let a person die like that...

the system is as much to blame as anyone. Floyd should've been in prison already given his past offenses, but rather the "pc" catch and release parole system turned a violent criminal loose to commit yet another crime...
They’ve given derick knee slam a slam dunk of an appeal.. a BLM supporter is now bragging he lied to stay on the jury..
maybe they’ll do the same favour for the other guys..
