he done did what he done

July.23.08

“He done what he thought he was trained to do to bring that subject into custody. At some point, something happened with his body that caused him to go into cardiac arrest or whatever.”

Winnfield, LA police chief discussing the tasing of a man after he’d been arrested (and handcuffed) on cocaine charges.

apparently the officer THOUGHT he’d been trained to tase a suspect NINE times AFTER he’d been brought into custody (handcuffed).

the “something” that “happened” with his body that sent him into cardiac arrest was the 50,000 volts of electricity that the officer hit him with over and over and over and over and over and over and over (now he’s not moving) and over and over.

they’re breeding real rocket scientists down there in winnfield, no? a police chief that can’t formulate a sentence and an officer who thought that he’d been trained to tase the ever-living shit out of a suspect, twice after he’d apparently died.
