    They also called a forensic pathologist, former Maryland chief medical examiner Dr. David Fowler, who said Floyd, whose death was ruled a homicide at the hands of the police, really died of heart disease, and that the exhaust fumes of the adjacent police car may have also poisoned him.

    I get it that medicine and forensics aren’t always clear cut, and I get it that the court might be privy to info that the general public has no idea about, but gawdamn. The witness was former chief coroner for an entire state, how does this not undermine his credibility in all previous cases, especially ones that might involve police and minorities?
