In the midst of my turbulent COVID journey, I became the expert witness pulmonologist in the George Floyd civil case. It helped win his family a 27 million dollar judgement. We need to learn from it.
Thank you for sharing your medical evidence on George Floyd. All we got from the media was the drama and hype without the facts. I wish his needless death had changed for the better the policies of police nationwide to prevent this type of tragedy, but instead it has suppressed police involvement, which has led to more crime, more killing, more violence. I know people have said with George Floyd it was the drugs, or that he was a bad guy, but it's not about that. It's about justice and it's about changing policies that will arrest humanely, contain safely, and protect people in police custody.
Stunned. This made me step away from the instantaneous, seemingly planned riots that killed Minneapolis and created terror across the US. You are brilliant, Dr. Kory and add to that your well known compassion, this was not a mere Substack article. It is a (can’t find the right word here) “blowout” of facts that could very well impact every police department in the U.S., as well a lesson in precision understanding rather than interpretations.
I, too, would like to see an eye for an eye and a breath for a breath for every Covid patient murdered by willful & deadly hospital protocol. No one burned down cities over this.
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” - Martin Luther King, Jr. You are a man of great "measure" and I can only hope that you will eventually be justly rewarded for being such a good human and an honorable doctor.
I’m enlightened and incredibly grieved by your testimony. It’s so important that we hear the truth; though difficult or contrary to our perceived conclusions. This tactic employed by those officers resulted in Floyd’s death.
Our son, died this year in an ICU, 33 yr old athlete who admitted to hospital with pneumonia- Rem-Morphine- plethora of the usual drugs that matched him in a few days to vent. ( no matter how we begged to try other care) . Breathing is our most basic right, it’s how we enter the world and exist in it. It’s God given.
There is no more frightening thing to lose than breath, especially at the hands of another.
Thank you for the report, Dr. Kory. So informative. I followed several conservative writers on Twitter. When the verdict was announced, they angrily denounced it. I was so disgusted with the twisted logic. Seemed like their main argument against the verdict was that Floyd was high on drugs, that the drugs were the main instrument of his death, rather than the knees on his neck and back. Watching the videos, it seemed to me that the easiest way to get Floyd under control would be to handcuff his hands and ankles, then put him in the back of the police car, if the officers felt he was out of control. So there would therefore be no deaths to tear up communities. It was terrible watching a person slowly suffocate to death. Thanks again for the informative report. God bless.
And also to say calming words, let the bystander with all that training trying to help out and reduce the temperature of the interaction. Lots of talk about having trained mental health and substance abuse professionals accompany and train officers. These programs have existed since the 1990's but no will to disseminate them.
Dr. Kory, this thread has been an interesting glimpse into human nature (or human ego?). And also, it sadly illustrates why the covid narrative will probably never change.
You are truly an expert in your filed. You are brilliant, committed, compassionate and brave. And you have shared an in-depth report of your very detailed findings on the George Floyd case. These FACTS - the result of your incredibly detailed review and conclusions - are indisputable. These medical FACTS were presented to a jury and the verdict was reached.
And yet... "whataboutism", speculation, personal bias, and more (from certain comments) result in the inability to comprehend an actual, in-depth FACTUAL account and accept it at face value.
See the connection?
It hit me immediately! Wow, just as you have spent the last two years analyzing and studying and discovering the REAL story behind the Covid treatment scam, and the in-your-face reality behind the current FDA, CDC, WHO, big-pharma profit motive, there are those who just can't/won't ever accept these FACTS, because - well, being wrong and opening up one's mind to other possibilities is scary.
My father was a police officer, my husband an MP, my daughter currently in a police academy. What Chauvin did was unspeakably callous, cowardly, and against real police training and protocol. At the time, the officers we know were horrified. The other officers at the scene followed Charvin's lead, because that's what they are trained to do. Floyd's past in not the subject of your report. Racism is not the subject of your report. At the time I felt bad but honestly did not invest much effort reading about the details. Now, reading this, I am appalled.
Just like I am appalled at the inability of friends and family and trusted medical associates to actually take the time to learn how we have all been fooled with the covid narrativem and lied to. It took me a year - this HAD to be a lie perpetuated by right-wing nut jobs. And when I decided to prove them wrong, I found it was I who drank the Kool-Aid and was fooled. It hurt, I lost friends and I'm angry.
But, I'm very cautious now and do my research on every subject with an open mind. You have kept my family safe (so far!) and I (we) will be forever filled with gratitude to you and all you do.
As this was one of the most prominent criminal trials ever, the prosecutors literally had their pick of practically any medical expert in the whole country (world?).
This was even *after* Kory & FLCCC were advocating corticosteroids for covid treatment.
In other words, the mainstream-iest mainstream of them all held Kory to be one of the country's foremost pulmonological experts if not *THE* foremost expert.
There ain't a snowballs chance in hell that they would use a [insert epithet adjectives here] disinformation-spreading quack for only one of the most seminal cultural events in history.
Wow. Thank you for your difficult work on this horrible tragedy. I knew the knee on the neck was causing great distress, and could only be deadly, but had no idea there were two other officers also causing restriction of adequate air intake, because I never saw that. I agree that you are above and beyond an awesome clinician, and your desire to help people and see justice done is over the top! I greatly respect you for that. Your detailed description of how each officer-induced respiratory restriction led to his death was absolute proof this horrible death could have been avoided, and never should have happened. I am heartbroken, and angry, that police officers could actually do this. As a retired Critical Care RN, and a human being, you have my greatest respect and admiration. Keep on keeping on, and know you are in my prayers to come out on top, with God's favor to carry you forward, proclaiming the REAL truth about medicine and science. :)
You are a true hero. May your soul be healed and your spirit fortified by the immense good you have brought into our troubled world. God bless you and keep you strong and safe.
I took a double take, WHAT! Oh dear, that too. Your heart is so big you embrace clearing the suffering wherever it lands....this is horrific, hideous so tragically more of the same. Oh, dear dear Doc Kory please look after yourself, we love you so much your integrity SHINES in this darkened land.
left speechless with love and concern...how much can one take
Perhaps Floyd's breathing was interfered with by police officers doing their duty in an over aggressive manner causing death. I don’t know.
What I do know is that Minneapolis will never be the same progressive city it once was due to politicians who refused to call in National Guard for days. Minneapolis is a ghost town and skyway storefronts are empty. The city is violent with drag racers and carjackings on the streets every evening. Chaos reigns.

Dr. Kory, now do a Substack on just one patient who was killed by Medical Doctors and Nurses in hospitals using Dr. Fauci's COVID protocol. Seems like a massive problem in comparison to the Floyd death. While the expectation is that Medical Professionals would save lives, the opposite outcome occurred in many cases. The money poured in to the hospitals by the Federal Government for remdesivir, vents etc.
The four officers who pay dearly for their mistake or the medical community getting away scott free for multiple thousands of deaths for cash, which is more astounding?
Maybe expert witness testimony can be had for the families that lost loved ones in this heinous covid scheme at some point in time looking to the future.
Keep up the good work with the covid injured. Dr.Kory you are a hero in your relentless speaking out of the truth of early treatment and the efforts with the FLCCC!
A friend of my daughter, who was a robust 76 year old ex-Marine was hospitalized and died suddenly after being given Remdesivir. His family was not allowed to participate in his care once he was hospitalized. Another COVID death, or an iatrogenic death by an EUA toxic drug? No one will ever know.
Holy Cow! Just saw this. Bless you, Dr. Kory.

Great comment on: not a mere Substack post with a blowout of facts.

Thank you, Dr. Pierre, as always you are truly the Original Angel!

Thank you Dr Kory. I weep for us all.
So sad, so young, and shocking the C19 death cocktail still being given this year in 2022.

One very salient observation:
Dr. Kory was asked for his opinion in June 2020.
As this was one of the most prominent criminal trials ever, the prosecutors literally had their pick of practically any medical expert in the whole country (world?).
This was even *after* Kory & FLCCC were advocating corticosteroids for covid treatment.
In other words, the mainstream-iest mainstream of them all held Kory to be one of the country's foremost pulmonological experts if not *THE* foremost expert.
There ain't a snowballs chance in hell that they would use a [insert epithet adjectives here] disinformation-spreading quack for only one of the most seminal cultural events in history.
Now that's a credential :))
Incredible report and articulate testimony. Keep up the great work in all areas.
Wow. Thank you for your difficult work on this horrible tragedy. I knew the knee on the neck was causing great distress, and could only be deadly, but had no idea there were two other officers also causing restriction of adequate air intake, because I never saw that.

Keep on keeping on, and know you are in my prayers to come out on top, with God's favor to carry you forward, proclaiming the REAL truth about medicine and science. :)
Media reporting being untrustworthy, your findings very much helped my understanding of the case.
You continue to amaze and inspire gratitude. We are extremely lucky to have you amongst us, defending truth as you do. Please feel our sincere thanks!
Dr. Kory,
You are a true hero. May your soul be healed and your spirit fortified by the immense good you have brought into our troubled world. God bless you and keep you strong and safe.
