    Depart policy is to have the taser on the opposite of the body. Sgt. Langan had his taser strapped to the front of his vest.

    Failure to follow department policy.

    Training is to happen every year. Sgt. Langan had training maybe two or three times.

    Department failure to uphold document protocol.

    I mean just these two alone they’re going to be ripped apart in a civil suit. There’s just this whole chain of broken from start to finish, literally none of the links interconnect. This department probably has a ton of systemic issues that State level oversight ought to get involved, but we know that the issues won’t be addressed, the department will ask to settle out of court, and literally no one will be punished except the tax payer who will float that settlement.

      I hope they don’t settle.
