The penalty for selling cigarettes should not be death by asphyxiation. Those cops need to face charges. They never even tried to save the guy.
Have the usual suspects shown up to explain how this was all perfectly legitimate, and simply the result of the man being overweight?
I wonder if they think a jury would buy that?

Check the above video. If he was asphyxiated, how could he still be breathing at least three minutes into the video. One of the police officers checks his pulse multiple times before the EMT arrives. When the EMT arrives, the first thing she does is check for his pulse. She also checks for respiration twice, the last time right before he is put on the stretcher.
