Science, liability, use of force, and restraint asphyxia

So there's this article on the PoliceOne website...

"Science, liability, use of force, and restraint asphyxia" [LINK], written by Dr. Darrell L. Ross.

The entire article does not mention the word "taser" nor "ECW". Not once. But the article is about those pesky and mysterious sudden in-custody deaths.

Just past the article is the following offer:

"Interested in this product? Request information from TASER International"

Weird - very weird.

(To be perfectly clear, this cintelligent designism type of slip-up speaks more to the PoliceOne website and their relationship to Taser International, than is it necessarily a negative reflection on Dr. Ross.)

Below is a very small screen capture extract [FAIR USE / FAIR DEALING claimed], showing just the top and bottom (big snip trim shown by the black dots) to show the strange juxtaposition, and to preserve it for posteriority.
