I have no doubt this will lead to widespread changes to Taser protocols in the police forces of the nation. That is, of course, if these officers weren't breaking existing protocols designed to prevent exactly the type of thing which happened here.

Well we only hear about cops/tasers when there is a death, or when they are used again after the death...If the cops are using them then there are things not being reported in the media..cause i will tell you cops arent out to kill people with tasers...and i have heard the most deaths that involve tasers, the death is always contributed to some other aliment/substance..anmd trust me if there was a serious problem the cops would not be using them, there is no conspiracy here...maybe more research needs to be done...i dunno...
