Howard Hyde Inquiry in Halifax

Very familiar territory... [LINK]


It's probably worth clarifying one detail not revealed in some of the related headlines published over the past few months.

Such as: 'Howard Hyde died 30 hours after being tasered'

In fact, the more detailed version of the events reveal that he was apparently tasered and immediately went into cardiac arrest (reportedly 'no pulse'). But the police heroically performed CPR and Mr. Hyde was revived.

This detail takes some of the mystery out of the 30-hour gap with respect to the debate about the purported versus actual safety of tasers.
