| but would he have died of those causes, AT THAT TIME, without being put in the chokehold by the police?
Simple question that the lawyer will ask the judge/jury/doctors. And it's probably pretty clear the he wouldn't have.
Thus; lawsuit. |

| I return an innocent verdict from what that news report said.
And there are certain chokholds (probably not with a batton) that are used as submission holds jsut like arm bars for criminals who are resisting. However this doesn't sound like police misuse of force it sounds like a family that is upset over their loss (and rightfully so no one likes to loose a loved one) trying to place blame somewhere esle | |

Lake County Chief Deputy Coroner Jeff Wells said Magee, who weighed more than 350 pounds, died from cardiac arrhythmia, an enlarged heart, obesity and kidney failure. The autopsy found no indication Magee had been choked. | Right there should tell you that this case will not win in court | |
