This was deliberate malfeasance.

I hope the family owns the police dept.

The cops should have done better. But I also lay the blame on all those who sell, buy, or use illegal drugs.

IMO, there’s some liability attached to the supervisor who let him leave at the wheel of a vehicle after reporting those symptoms. Where I worked, I’d have been fired if I didn’t immediately call the paramedics for one of my crew who was having headaches and blurred vision.

I have to disagree.

This was not malfeasance or deliberate brutality. It was a combination of incompetence (not following outlined procedures) and stupidity.

In either case, there will be a lawsuit, and the family will win.

And I don’t see that as a bad thing, as long as the police involved are fired and the department reviews their processes so it doesn’t happen again.
