8 Month Pregnant Woman Assaulted by Police With Taser
Officers unable to extract an 8 month pregnant women from her vehicle used a 50,000 volt taser on her 7 months after the policy had been put in place for the police to able to use tasers in such situations. After being shocked she was taken to the ground and handcuffed. The November 2004 incident is only gaining attention now as the vicitim in engulged in a legal battle.
I see reports of about 1 death per month or two in the USA from taser(TM) attacks by police. The death rates appear to be increasing.
