a(2) absent supplies, about the only care you can provide in that situation is to position the individual so that he doesn't aspirate.
b. You don't leave department property laying on the ground where you can't keep an eye on it and some bystander can walk off with it.
Not as inflammatory, but they make as much sense to me as a cop trying to “plant” a weapon that wouldn't help his case any.

I'm sorry but your logic is driving me crazy.
His backup was coming so he moved the tazer to where he could say the perp dropped it after being shot. His backup would not know any different and might make it a clean shoot.
“You don't leave department property on the ground”. You do leave that property on the ground and don't touch it if it is part of a crime scene.
The cop “clearly” planted a weapon. This is a bad cop. The perp might not be an angel but the cop is a murderer. It appears the cop was angry at the perp and too lazy to chase him so killed him. Unless he gets the death penalty it won't be enough.
This is one of the most sickening videos I have ever seen the only thing that makes me sicker is knowing that without the video he would have gotten away with it.
I’m sorry logic disturbs you so. You make a number of claims that don’t seem to have any evidence to support them, do you have anything concrete, are incapable or realizing that sometimes facts don’t match your beliefs, or are you just insisting that the whole world accept your assumptions without determining the facts?
1. Do you know for a fact that the object on the ground was a taser?
2. Do you have clear and persuasive evidence that the only reason the officer moved the object was to plant evidence?
3. Can you articulate any way in which having a taser found next to the subject would help the officer’s case, but having it found at the point where he assaulted the officer wouldn’t?
If you have direct evidence on any of these matters, you need to contact law enforcement and provide it to them. Otherwise, I’ll conclude that you’re basing your position on what you heard, what you feel, what you saw of a one angle video that only covers part of the incident, or you’re just parroting what other like-minded people are posting.
