That means that the police are responsible for his safety. They were negligent.


This is why police are essentially apathetic around here. None of them get paid enough to babysit these people.

And if they save him, we're just rinse and repeating in a few days.


Yes, that’s called doing their job. Big Government agents don’t get to draw a taxpayer funded paycheck and decide this guy gets to die today. They drop him off at the hospital and let the doctors decide on a course of treatment. If they don’t want to do their job, they can go into a new line of work. Where else can they play Candy Crush while collecting OT?

If an IRS Auditor acted with such callousness toward a small biz owner undergoing a similar medical emergency, you’d be calling for his head.

They administered Narcan.

If that’s true and they suspected he was on drugs and didn’t respond to his request for a hospital and didn’t supervise him well enough to notice when Narcan was still an option they are totally negligent.

That’s not how positional asphyxiation occurs while handcuffed. It occasionally happens when a handcuffed perp is face down and there is pressure from another’s body weight on the perps upper torso. The deceased was all alone in the police vehicle and laying on his back. Your post is a reflection of decent Google work though.


That’s not true. Positional asphyxia can occur in a variety of positions, and it’s a why someone who is in physical restraints needs to be supervised continuously. I am someone who is trained and has trained others in safe restraint.

How could you look at that footage of him insisting there was a gunman in his apartment when it was clearly established that there wasn’t and not recognize the possibility of psychosis, which is a medical emergency?


Psychosis is a psychiatric emergency, not a medical emergency. The suspect was in custody. A reasonable person would believe a handcuffed suspect locked in the back of a police vehicle was incapable of inflicting grave bodily injury to themselves or others. The jail would have taken the standard precautions if the suspect demonstrated suicidal ideation.


Psychiatry is a branch of medicine. Psychiatric emergencies are medical emergencies.

My guess is that the combination of panic and hands behind his back led to positional asphyxia. Someone restrained like that needs eyes on them.

This idiotic comment must have been made from one of the negligent cops on the scene.


If you’ve ever interacted with frequent flyers, you’d know they are lying with their every breath. No one who interacts with them can take them seriously. They just want to get out of whatever trouble they are in.


NP. I've worked with cops and I've worked with criminals and the criminals lied to me less.

I just Googled this. It happened 2 weeks ago? I had no idea. There must be a reason this barely gets even local coverage.

Criminals love escaping from hospitals.

Sometimes druggies expire. Narcan doesn’t always work.
