They went in when he was sleeping and started mashing him?

Really, that sounds so believable/s

Don’t call the cops.

Call your social worker.

I guess night sticks are banned?

I am of the opinion that many times family members wait too late to seak help. When the person is already violent is past the time to be seaking help.

That’s one way to cure someone’s mental health problem.

A family called 911 for son’s mental health crisis. They say deputies beat and Tased him to death

So the family sues and cashes in, ... OK, got it.

Never call the cops on someone you don’t want killed.

Sounds similar to case in Fullerton a few years ago. I believe the victim’s name was Kelly.

Gee, no bias in this reporting from the Slimes.

A 300 lb psyco on meth attacks his father and they call the cops.

I think mommy and daddy are glad junior is no longer a threat and see a fat pay day coming their way.

Few thoughts on this, in bullet form!

• Its reported by the LA Times, which is known for gross propaganda and leaving out or adding in convenient "facts". LA Times has an anti-police history.
• Cops don't just come in and beat the you-know-what out of people. They have to have a reason and its usually either they are threatened or the suspect is resisting arrest. LAPD is also highly trained in deescalation and is most often very careful and professional in their work.
• There's a wrongful death lawsuit involved, which is always suspicious.
• There is no police report or transcript of what happened, so literally anything can be said without any fact backing it up.

Now, could this has transpired this way? Yes, but highly unlikely.
