These are the tactics of a tyrannical government. We are already there.
A lot of that going around lately.
Wow,does not look good, something happened, not sure what if PTSD from being in confined area may never find out.
chilling.
something is way not right, here.
I wonder if the injections had anything to do with it.
It looks like he was still alive when they carted him out.
The sheriff’s statement sucked.
They beat the poor soul to death. That is no mystery. I watched the jail programs on t.v. and they will beat the hell out of you at the drop of a hat. And throw it down.
If you watch COPS or JAIL TV shows, this happens all the time and the procedure seems to be if the prisoner can talk he can breathe, therefore is faking.
What should the cops do?
They weren’t hitting him, they were restraining him. What would you do?
Later
That’s what I wonder about.
Is it true that if the prisoner is talking then his breathing is fine?
Should every jail also have an emergency doctor on site? That would get expensive.
How much does it cost to have a paramedic on standby? Not only for the prisoners, but for the guards in case of emergency. But more specifically, once the soldier asked for help, 911 should have been contacted. That is obvious. Zero concern for him.
I would stay far from them.
these cops are bad ass in a gang,but one on one they ain’t shit walking or riding.
It was a sickle cell crisis. While 1 in 500 African Americans carry the disease, few ever encounter a full-blown crisis. I don’t know what to say. We have lost a hero and a wife and little girl have lost their husband and father.
I agree. The guy had unexplained bleeding and needed medical attention. This is a shame. I wonder what his autopsy showed.
In time police traffic patrols will be by Armored Cars with five man SWAT teams inside. If you are stopped for a broken taillight they will leap out of the armored car and attack your door with a battering ram and break the window to throw a flash bang into the car. After tasering You will be spreadeagled on the ground with a 220 pound trooper on your back with his knee in your kidney, stripped, cavity searched, cuffed, given the appropriate $30 repair-it-in-48-hours ticket and sent on your way with a cheery but menacing request to donate to the Disabled Officers’ Fund.
