    "When Elijah is on the ground handcuffed, he’s saying over and over and over again, 'I can't breathe. Please help me,'" said Bunge, who added that McClain threw up after the chokehold and was drowning in vomit.

    The defense argued that the officers followed their department policies and training, instead blaming McClain’s death on the EMTs who later arrived at the scene and gave McClain a shot of ketamine. The EMTs also claimed they were following department protocol at the time.

    Umm wtf? Unless I am missing something, police approached Elijah because he was "suspicious" , not because he was violating any law. They then choked him, causing him to vomit. Finally EMT's came and put a half gram of Ketamine into him. Wow. What are your thoughts?
