577 .BREAKDOWN: Suspect Dies After Taser Deployment


Listen Later

Andrew Stallings was the hand of fate. LaVaughn Coleman, a 21-year-old man who was only beginning his life of crime by fleeing the police while the were searching for guns and drugs. A taser was deployed, and it worked well-- Coleman was felled in the action. Unfortunately he hit his head, an unfortunate but possible outcome when you arrest, and he passed away. Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown, in a shocking move has decided the officer did not break the law and will not be charged (for now anyway). What will this do to the ever-ready-for-outrage communities in the Old Line State? And was the decision to use force a good one? What could have gone differently? Or Better?


Former cop Eric Tansey, who has tased more than one person, and Tyler, who probably also is a real stunner break down the case from start to finish, so you can hear the story from the other side of the thin blue line.
