I actually don’t know. If this guy actually had some kind of surgery prior/recently to his back, and the dude has a history of violence, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he did something in the van that got him put down on the floor of the van, a takedown like you see on cops, and his recently operated back couldn’t take it.
I don’t think he’s just an innocent perp here. I just don’t see it.
If it was a takedown on him for going off on the cops in the van, I would not describe it as the cops “punishing him” but rather attempting to re-establish control over a prisoner that is acting out towards them. You can’t have a prisoner out of control and going after you in a police van. If he had surgery the prior week he was an idiot to do it. You see how cops take down people on the street and he knows how he’s gonna be taken down, same as always, he’s had it happen dozens of times before.
So I will ask you the sawm way you asked me,
Just to be clear, you’ve arleady judged the cops guilty and in your mind there is no scenario where the cops were just attempting to restrain a crimnal who was being transported who had recent back surgery and he still went off on them, and died because of his own actions requiring the police to get him back under control, and in the process his back was broken? Under no circumstance can you see the guy could have possibly required getting under control and in his post surery state was an idiot to be acting that way, not thinking that maybe with his recent back surgeries if they have to take me down they could break my back and I might die?
Read my post. I explicitly said if that’s what happened.
