before you get it? do you need another primer on it?
btw, explain the Fulton Co DA charging other ATL cops with aggravated assault for tasering two college kids.
I'll answer it for you, b/c the DA alleges the taser caused serious physical injury.
when can an officer use deadly force? death or serious physical injury is imminent.
I've already established multiple times how in the hands of an untrained (or reckless or negligent) person a taser can cause death or serious physical injury.
under graham v Connor this is a reasonable use of force:
(c) The Fourth Amendment "reasonableness" inquiry is whether the officers' actions are "objectively reasonable" in light of the facts and circumstances confronting them, without regard to their underlying intent or motivation. The "reasonableness" of a particular use of force must be judged from the perspective of a reasonable officer on the scene, and its calculus must embody an allowance for the fact that police officers are often forced to make split-second decisions about the amount of force necessary in a particular situation. Pp. 396-397.
case closed.
