Quote:I would call death a bit of a complication! I'm surprised you posted this when a local man died, just last month, after being tased. Although I have not yet heard of an underlying cause in that case, in fact I read there was no heart condition there, but many of the deaths have been passed off to heart disease, drug use, etc. The problem is that such conditions are rarely visible. "Stop! Do you have a heart condition? I am going to tase you now and I don't want to do a bunch of paperwork if you die." This was a ridiculous use of the taser. She wasn't beating down a swarm of police officers, she was backing away from one. Force of any kind was not called for.
If she had kept her cool and calmly explained to the officer the situation, and that the credit card was hers, then she wouldn't have been shocked. Tasers offer an excellent solution to making a perp listen without actually harming the perp. I don't see anything wrong here - if there is something wrong here, it's with the credit card companies and not the cop.
