” But the law states that you can’t let people Hurt themselves, whether they are in custody or not.”
So Just so I have this right. He was in the car, but thrashing too much, so for HIS own safety they dragged him out and held him to the ground in a chokehold.
Is that your contention?
“The point is that was their procedure.”
You keep repeating this but it wasnt true then and still isnt true.
No where in their procedure does it allow continued chokeholds after a suspect is no longer resisting.
