[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People have died being tasered. I would like to know what the exact protocol is/is supposed to be in this type of situation. Can't they give the girl space and time? Or use some deescalation protocol before approaching? [/quote] The people who have died being tasered are most always high on PCP or cocaine. People have also died after being hit over the head with a club, falling down the steps, or had heart attacks while being restrained. When a student is completely out of control it is nearly impossible for one person to control her. Anyone who has worked in a school will tell you that its not uncommon for three or four adults to have trouble restraining one kid. The protocol is to protect yourself and others. Police officers have to make split second decisions. Unlike you who can ponder a situation for hours or days they have to act immediately. [/quote]
