Black Lives Matter is a civil rights group which came about in response to extreme police brutality which culminated in the shooting dead of three African-American men in 2013.

Thousands of BLM protests were sparked after the video of police officer Derek Chauvin kneeling on George Floyd’s neck and back went viral as he pleaded for his life in May.

A medical examiner’s office on June 1 ruled that his death was a homicide and that he died from asphyxiation.

The cause of death was listed as “cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint and neck compression,” they confirmed.

The child was transported to a hospital but didn’t suffer any injuries, WHIOTV reports.

The sheriff’s office said the child’s mother was unaware of the incident until investigations started, it’s reported.

A case against Jackson has been prepared who will “provide a determination on the scope and breadth of felony charges” that he will face in the alleged incident.

It’s unknown what the man will be charged with.

A sick social media trend has emerged on Snapchat amid the BLM protests which have taken place.

The so-called “George Floyd” challenge showed participants – mostly white males – pose for smiling photos while kneeling on the necks of their friends.

One photo showed a British teen kneeling on one of his friend in the same way police officer Derek Chauvin was filmed when he knelt on George Floyd.

The louts, aged between 18 and 19, were pictured laughing at the camera in the post captioned: “Police brutality.”

One user claimed to be an Air Force graduate and was slammed on social media users for sharing a photo which had the caption: “Graduate Lives Matter,” reported the New York Post.

A mom was accused of kneeling on her son’s neck while asking him: “Do you want know how George Floyd died?” as he gasped for air.

Keriann Smith, 37, reportedly pinned her 14-year-old son to the floor and then held her knee on his throat at the family’s apartment in Genoa City, according to Wisconsin cops.

The 5-foot-9, 135-pound mother is accused of asking her son during the alleged attack: “Do you want to know how George Floyd died? He died something like this. Do you want to die just like him?” the Kenosha News reported.

She is alleged to have continued berating her son: “Tell me you can’t breathe. Tell me. [Expletive] tell me,” according to WITI-TV.

The video, which was filmed by the boy’s sister, reportedly shows Ms Smith kneeling on the boy’s neck for 48 seconds while he squirmed for air, according to court records.

Smith was charged with child abuse, strangulation and battery among other counts after the incident is said to have occurred on June 20.

If convicted she faces up to 14 years in jail.
