Seriously??? This is what they have to offer after Dr. Tobin??

[NEnigma]

Too bad the prosecution won’t be able to ask him about his theory on how Anton Black died. I see a pattern here. He needs new material. If you want to be credible, maybe stop denying how dangerous the knee on neck can be.

[Deneice]

Fowler is named in a lawsuit regarding similar situations as the Chauvin trial.

[veezienhamoruhwande]

His eyes are full of hatrage ...we remember Apartheid very well Dr David Fowler

[reneechatman]

The prosecuting attorney whipped Dr Fowler's butt on cross examination..Dam they good.

[Sun-kwig]

Why did Eric Nelson pick him?
Nothing new presented. Were we supposed to be dazzled by his accent!

[kemperwilliams]

He never examined the body, its his opinion

[wpyx]

They had to get a retired pathologist. A working pathologist would have his license removed for saying such tripe

[belindacassidy]

This should be good watching the state put questions a lil different !! I am not a cop hater, through my life I have met some really good ones, but this cop Chauvin knew exactly what he was doing and they should of done a toxic test on him, I just feel there is something more with GF & Chauvin

Now The guy is contradicting himself 🙄👀🙄

This guy is being accused of helping to cover up the police's role in the 2018 in-custody death of Anton Black, a Black 19-year-old from the Eastern Shore. In December, Fowler was named a defendant in a civil lawsuit brought by the family of Black. The lawsuit, led by the ACLU of Maryland, personally names Fowler, along with the state medical examiner's office and a myriad of police agencies and police officers, and accuses him of concealing law enforcement's role in Black's death, which the lawsuit claims was at the hands of the police. Specifically, the ACLU accuses Fowler and the medical examiner's office of obstructing the officer-involved death investigation by delaying the release of an autopsy for months, being improperly influenced by police and clearing the path for police to 'develop a narrative that absolved the involved officers of their wrongdoing.'
Asked about Fowler's role in the Minneapolis trial, 'We don't find Dr. Fowler a credible witness by any stretch of the imagination, because he's consistent in his autopsies where he wants to assist the officers in demonizing and criminalizing blacks who are killed by police, ' Rene Swafford, an attorney on the Black family legal team, said in an interview with WTOP.

[imbasforosnai]

Breaking news - Chauvin witness, a retired doctor, whips out documentation from the 1980s to prove climate change is man-made.
