Then how can the coroner attribute the guy's last one to the cops? Cardiology has improved apparently.

Then how can the coroner attribute the guy's last one to the cops? Their prescence ticked him off enough that he over-exerted himself and fought with them.

Look, as someone who frequently critices police abuse on this forum, I support the police in this case because their actions appear to have been justified and they used the appropriate amount of force under the circumstances. In fact, I commend their restraint
But it is obvious that the struggle was a major factor in the death, along with his drug use and obesity. That doesn't mean the police were guilty of a crime or even at fault.

Because of the struggle, there was an increase in adrenaline, heart rate, stressing the heart. I am sure they can measure the hormone levels in the blood and get a fairly accurate time of death.
The coroner stressed that the ruling of homicide does not implicate inappropriate behavior by the police. But he had to choose one of 4 causes. The other 3 would not have been accurate.
