In this week's Facts Matter column, Bob Oswald explores claims that a recent autopsy shows George Floyd did not die because of police abuse, Elon Musk is creating a robot wife, Disney World is replacing the American flag and more.
Social media posts claim new information was released last month concerning the death of George Floyd, 46, on May 25, 2020, in Minneapolis.
Page 1 of the report reads that Floyd suffered"cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression." John Stiles, deputy chief of staff for Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, told the AP the image used is"cherry-picked" from the autopsy report. "As white fans mourn the loss of Tina Turner, black fans need to remind them, she died without receiving reparations," read the headline, which is under The Guardian logo, labeled"opinion," and appears to be written by Shola Mos-Shogbamimu.
The headline can't be found on The Guardian's webpage or in its archives. The most recent story written by Mos-Shogbamimu that appeared in The Guardian was in 2021.
