Hand Held Electrocution Devices Shall Remain Blameless

Judge orders all references to 'Taser' stricken from medical examiner's reports

"A Summit County Common Pleas judge ordered the county medical examiner to delete any reference that Tasers contributed to the deaths of three Ohio men. All three men were in an 'agitated' state and 'on drugs' when police officers shot them with Tasers, and the judge ordered their deaths be ruled 'accidental' also that any reference to "homicide or "electrical pulse stimulation" should be deleted from death certificates and autopsy reports."Five sheriff's deputies had been indicted on charges related to the death of one of the men, who also had a history of mental illness. The judge further ordered that man's death be ruled as "undetermined" and to "delete any references to homicide and the death possibly being caused by asphyxia, beatings or other factors."

"No no, it was agitated excitement intoxicated restlessness disoriented anxiety deluded agitation incoherent disorientation disturbed perturbation excited delirium, yeah, that's it."
