yeah well of course the dude should not have been on LSD freaking out... but 19 times is not excessive and not to blame for his death? yeah um.. whatever.

Ahhhh....he stripped off his clothes.

Personally, I'd be hesitant to touch the guy when he's naked...and would let my Taser do the talking....but 19 times is just crazy.

We expect our police to take a bullet, but wrestling with a naked guy is way past the line. Smile

19 times... I would have thought he were incapacitated after a single shot, or maybe two... at least 12 should have done the trick.

Cops shouldn't be allowed to carry non-lethal weapons to which they've never been subjected themselves. It should be part of the training knowing exactly what it means to use these weapons. When the weapons are non-lethal, they much more easily feel justified using them.

the term is now less-than-lethal, not non-lethal.

Wonder if the drugs killed him along the way as there is no medical report on his health at the time maybe he was a walking heart attack case .
