Officer Tasered suspect 9 times, supect dies, officer criminally charged
A Former police officer was charged with manslaughter and malfeasance in office after tasing a subject 9 times. Shouldn't it have become obvious to the officer that he should have tried something different after the first few tasings? A jury could not be seated in the trial and the prosecutor asked for a change of venue. Stay tuned! LINK

"...arrested on a drug possession warrant..."?
ReplyDeleteWhat gives? Not knowing the details of the arrest makes it very difficult to understand what was going through the cop's mind at the time. On the surface it almost appeared the cop was entertained watching the suspect squirm.
44: Thanks for the comment. If I get any more detail about the case, I will create a post.
