I thought the same thing, but did a little research and 1800 mg is a very high level of morphine to have, but if you have built up tolerance you can function, not well, but you can.
Having that level of morphine in his system, that tells me there is a lot more background to this story then is making the news, like a serious pain management problem and addiction.
Either way, with that level of drugs in his system, I am not surprised he was confused or slow in following commands.
Of course that in no way exonerates the JBT's who gunned him down and finished him off with a couple of shots in the back as he lay dying
how about if youve been on it even longer, can that 'not well' get better with time ???
*if* he indeed but that much into his own system, and he was that obviously intoxicated, why didnt the cop simply take him down instead of tappin his shoulder, giving him opportunity to 'reach' ???
for all the witnesses testifying in lockstep that he was visibly whacked, it would seem an easy takedown by three trained cops at arm length...
scott either had NO idea he was a target of the evac, or he wasnt aware that three cops were that close to him, to actually reach out to touch him...either way, the suicide by cop scenario loses cred imo...
Seems like the Cops should have allowed for him being slow to react , since they had been told he might be on drugs. I guess it depends on what drugs they thought he was on.
