Given the horrific outcome of this tragic event, I think it
serves as a timely reminder that the use of Tasers must be used sparingly and as a last resort similar to firearms.
Also all officers using Tasers must be thoroughly trained in its deployment in all circumstances. People who think this is a suitable weapon to use in most casual circumstances are mistaken, this gun can deliver a 50,000 volt shock to the system which in itself can cause a wide range of unexpected consequences ranging from heart attacks to epileptic fits or seizures.
Not a weapon to be used lightly, specialised training is absolutely essential.
