George Floyd's toxicology report that was released with autopsy from Hennepin County Medical Examiner's office was released week of June 1, 2020. Nothing in it absolves those officers, and the report confirms what we saw happen on camera.

Most snowglobes are just made of water, but some can contain ethylene glycol. Most of those usually don't contain enough ethylene glycol to cause damage, but keep the word "usually" in mind. A homemade snowglobe can contain concentrations of anything, which is what happened in this case.
Ethylene glycol will cause a profound high anion gap metabolic acidosis. Generation of additional anions will cause a decrease in bicarbonate, causing the acidosis. But once this course runs out, it becomes harder to diagnose ethylene glycol ingestion, and histories for these patients are notoriously inaccurate.

Heatstroke is a serious problem and the heatwaves that cause it, claim more lives on average than any other weather event in USA. While generally thought to affect the elderly and the very young, it can affect people of all ages, not just because of the heat in the environment (classic heatstroke) but also because of activity (exertional heatstroke). The problems caused by heatstroke sometimes happen but don't appear clinically, like GI ischemia.

Licorice candy has glycyrrhizin which increases cortisol (stress hormone) levels in the body. This causes hypokalemia. Hypo- low. Kal- kalium (potassium). emia- presence in blood. Potassium signals muscle relaxation. Low potassium, low relaxation. Heart can't relax, then it stops.
Real licorice candy is not easy to get in the United States. It's not at big chain grocery stores. Most of what you can buy from the big brands is licorice flavored, and won't do this.

Do not misuse cough syrup.
Codeine metabolism happens in the liver and is mediated primarily in the first pass by CYP 2D6 (to morphine) and CYP 3A4 (norcodeine). Codeine and morphine can be glucuronidated in a second pass of metabolism, but watch for renal function in hospitalized patients as morphine-6-glucuronide is renally excreted. Because it is pharmacologically active as an analgesic as well, use caution in patients with renal failure. Genetic mutations in 2D6 have been observed and result in different pharmacokinetics for codeine. See references below.
This case is 2 cases combined. Both are de-identified. This video is not individual medical advice and are for general educational purposes only. I do not give medical advice over the internet.
