-- His death was a result of the beating. If you shoot me and I die days later, I was shot to death. --

I agree. My remark was directed to a different assertion, to wit, that "We know he was beaten to death and six cops were present at the time."

I jumped to a conclusion that you meant "present at the death," when you meant "present at the beating."

No problem. I could have been clearer.
