PRYOR, Okla. (AP) - Mayes County Sheriff Frank Cantey says the death of a county jail inmate was not related to the inmate being shot twice with a Taser. Cantey says the state medical examiner's office has not determined the cause of death of inmate Barron Davis but has found the death isn't related to the Taser. ...
This is incredible news. Philosophers have struggled with the fundamental issue in basic logic that it has long been considered to be impossible to prove a negative. But now an amateur philosopher and professional Medical Examiner in Oklahoma has achieved the feat that has stymied philosophers for untold generations. He has, apparently in the absence of evidence, proven a negative!! Wow.
[Sarcasm off]
As discussed previously (LINK), there wouldn't be anything to see if the Instrument of Death in question is just on the hairy edge of being risky. It's not going to leave a smoldering crater of burnt flesh.
In fact, the lack of evidence ("...has not determined the cause of death...") might be considered to be pretty good evidence in and of itself.
