You are completely out to lunch. A colleague of mine just had their leg completely fractured because a prisoner fell on them during a struggle. Another several years ago had his ankle shattered as a suspect fell on him during a struggle as well. No situation is the same and all it takes is a person resisting arrest to bring about a number of injuries that could be sustained by an officer or suspect.
Are you able to corroborate the fact that the person in question had their arms behind their backs and “weren’t engaging police” or is that you making assumptions? How about let ASIRT decide what happened?

Yeah I'm all over that. Just don't post stupid theories out of no where that contradict the witness accounts in the news story. What's the point of that? I'll be the first to admit that I think a psycho cop mangled the kid on purpose. But at least the initial story points directly that way.
I'd be more willing to give the benefit of the doubt if police had a history of acting honorably in these sort of cases. There also seems to be a lot of cases that disappear never to be seen again in the public eye. So I think it's ok to take advantage of posting these as they come up and then remember to ask for a conclusion later.
We never did find out any conclusion in this case even though we were promised there was a very important investigation going on...
