An Illinois cop was recorded in a disturbing video choking a man who was arrested after they received a tip off that he had a 'load of drugs' in his vehicle over the weekend. Officer fired a stun gun at McDowell by which point he appeared to be unconscious. Illinois prohibits officers from using chokeholds following a 2015 law. The move is illegal 'unless deadly force is justified'. The ordeal occurred nearly a week after NYPD police officer Daniel Pantaleo was fired from his department for the 2014 chokehold death of Eric Garner. Pantaleo had been on desk duty ever since he placed Garner, a 43-year-old black father-of-six, who was stopped for allegedly selling loose cigarettes, in a fatal chokehold five years ago. 🔫👮🏻‍♂️ #Taser

(WARNING 21+) A stunning video recorded on a Sonoma County sheriff’s deputy’s bodycam was released Friday of a fatal confrontation with carjacking victim David Ward, who was forcibly dragged through the window of his vehicle last month when he was mistaken for the thief and died after being choked during his apprehension. The sheriff’s office initially delayed releasing the video following a public records act request from The Press Democrat to disclose it.
