According at least two sources, Garner did not die at the scene of the
confrontation. He suffered cardiac arrest in the ambulance taking him to
the hospital and was pronounced dead about an hour later.
The EMT's may have had no reason to suspect an impending heart attack.
He had a pulse and was breathing.
He had complained that he couldn't breathe and that is one of the
signs of a heart attack. The 2 IBM guys I know who had one both said
it felt like a car was sitting on their chest.
All 4 were suspended in July (plenty of cites)and I think 2 were later
fired if you can believe CNN.
If I am the grand jury, that puts enough reasonable doubt out there
not to sustain an indictment. Giving everyone else on the scene,
including the supervisor and the other cops who were sitting on Garner
immunity was troubling too.
There was no windpipe or neck injuries so this was NOT A CHOKING, no
matter what Brooke Baldwin and Erin Burnett call it.
I think this guy was a heart attack waiting to happen, he had one and
they ignored him to death. The city is certainly liable but it looks
more like incompetence than murder.
If what you say is true, which I don't doubt, then the praise bestowed
on the grand jury by the President of New York's police union was well
deserved.
Good on him, even if his main union follower here disagrees.
I am not sure what part you may not think is true but the fact that
there was no windpipe or neck injury is widely out there and the fact
that everyone but Pantaleo got immunity is also widely reported.
There are also a number of news stories in the New York media from
July about the EMTs being suspended.
I said I didn't doubt any of what you said is true.
