At least eight taser "associated" deaths during August. The monthly death rate is showing an obvious increase. Late last year it had shown a hint of a drop-off (from seven per month to five or six) after Taser International blinked and advised police to avoid aiming at the chest. Perhaps the message has worn off.
A 27-year old man stopped breathing and died after a Pierce County sheriff's deputy stunned him with a Taser.
