Houston, Texas – August 9, 2007 – George Floyd showed up at Aracely Henriquez’s front door. Floyd was dressed in a blue uniform and told the woman he worked for the water department.
Henriquez opened the door and realized that Floyd was not with the water department. She attempted to close the door. Floyd held the door open. Five other black makes jumped out of a Ford Explorer. Floyd placed a pistol against Henriquez’s abdomen as he and the others forced their way into her house.
As Floyd searched the house another of the armed black males struck Henriquez in the head and side areas with his pistol.
There was also a one year old child (girl) in the house. Name appears to be Amanda Negrete. Looks like the one year old’s father, Angel Negrete was also in the house.
Note also that while not mentioned in the featured document it appears that Henriquez might have also been pregnant (working on confirming this now).
Will see if I can find more information in regard to the three victims: Aracely Henriquez, Angel Negrete and Amanda Negrete.
In the meantime if anyone is thinking about taking a knee for George Floyd I hope you’ll take the time needed to understand what you are doing before making a decision about it.
I would rather face death than take a knee for George Floyd.

In regard to the video of Floyd’s 2020 arrest my observation is that it was relatively soft.
Knee was on the back of the neck and the officer’s other leg/knee was holding some of the load.
I’ve seen and experienced much, much worse.
Floyd should have stayed away from drugs. I’ve seen much smaller men beat and pinned down much worse. Floyd was 6’6″ and more muscle than probably all the officers involved.
If anyone want’s to see what appears to be a ‘murder’ by police I think the 2015 shooting of Walter Scott (20 feet away from cop and running away) when shot only in the back (and multiple times). Cop also tried to plant his taser gun on Scott after he was dead.
Be that as it may Scott was up to no good and there appears to have been a physical altercation (between the officer and Scott) moments before Scott starting running (he was also running away from the officer before the altercation).
While I don’t like that he was shot in the back (and at 20 of so feet away and running away) he was also up to no good.
A man’s game charges a man’s price (and in this specific and particular case I think this can be applied not only to Scott but also the officer who shot him in the back and then planted the taser on him).
Great research. Results and opinion well stated!
@ Lucas Daniel Smith: The official coroners report states that Floyd died as a result of heart disease complicated by the use of intoxicants methamphetamine and fentanyl. Floyd was NOT killed, murdered by police but rather died while in police custody as a result of his own exertion triggering heart failure while resisting arrest after passing counterfeit money.
