“They did what they deemed appropriate at the time.”
I have no complaint about anything they did from what I’ve read, except for leaving her alone with just enough chain to hang herself.
She certainly should not have been left alone. In retrospect her behavior should have elicited a medical response as well as a law enforcement response. People just don’t behave that way for no reason and she should have been held for psychiatric evaluation, but that’s hindsight.

I don’t believe she was chained. She was handcuffed from behind with plastic “slip wraps”. This as a common, approved and safe method for most jurisdictions. Very few are able to manoeuver around to bring the tie around the neck and cause choking. I know I can’t.
