I think you could drop the aided and abetting part. I think you could absolutely charge them with assault. In fact, the two that held his feet might potentially be able to be charged with battery as well. I think those charges would be much more appropriate and most likely easy convictions.

 

What do you think?

The AG’s argument is under MN law if someone dies during the commission of a crime it’s 2nd degree murder and that they were aiding and abetting his assault— the fact that it continued after him repeatedly saying he couldn’t breathe and was dying and even after they couldn’t find a pulse makes that a pretty plausible argument in my opinion.
