Re: George Floyd tested positive for coronavirus, fentanyl, methamphetamine, arteriosclerosis: Autopsy

It's not actually a critical piece of evidence in anything.

There are two issues here.

1. Do blacks systematically get treated differently than whites (e.g., arrested vs. not arrested) for minor possible offenses such as passing a single $20 bill (possible offense because presumably a valid defense is that you didn't know it was counterfeit)?

2. Once arrested, do blacks systematically get treated differently from whites?

For neither of these two issues does it matter whether the bill was actually counterfeit or not. Presumably the store employee thought that it was, and called the police as a result.
