cuffs is not the question....the question is how a youngish woman is DEAD after being in police custody.....how often does that happen in your ER?.....I'll bet nobody is left with restraints alone in a room, and if you do, you are violating commonly accepted safeguards when it comes to restraints...
Utter nonsense. She refused to cooperate with the police instructions, clearly shown on the video. Witnesses said she had broken her cell phone striking others. She was completely out of control and needed to be restrained.
By the way there is no requirement to keep anyone in the ER in restraints under constant observation. If that were the case EVERY ER nurse in the country would do nothing else on a Saturday night. You restrain them, then check on them periodically, every 10 to 15 minutes.
