Someone call the man because they saw someone wearing a mask like it's a January game at Soldier's Field.
So what? The kid was autistic and had not committed a crime to warrant an arrest. Much less the violent manner which led to his death. There was no assessment of this kids mental capacity or physical condition before taking him down with a choke hold and then injecting him with Ketamine.

Interesting concept.

Letā€™s imagine youā€™re the responding officer.

Walk us through your process of assessment of the mental and physical condition of a stranger.

Why, we might be on the verge of a breakthrough method of law enforcement!

Go on! Waiting with bated breath!

Was he suspect in a crime? No. End of story......

The police received a suspicious person report. Their job to investigate.
Their investigation exceeded their authority. This is the root cause of our police problem. There are reasons the courts have placed restrictions on police authority.

Chicago Law isnā€™t a proper example of good law enforcement.

ā€œEditor's Note: This story has been updated to remove reference to Elijah McClain having autism. McClain's mother, Sheneen McClain, told ABC News her son did not have autism.ā€


Kinda blows a hole in your source of information.
Actually it doesn't.
"Upon review of the evidence available to the Panel, Officer Woodyardā€™s decision to turn what may have been a consensual encounter with Mr. McClain into an investigatory stop -- in fewer than ten seconds -- did not appear to be supported by any officerā€™s reasonable suspicion that Mr. McClain was engaged in criminal activity. This decision had ramifications for the rest of the encounter," the report stated.

Elijah McClain was a 23-year-old Black man who, at about 140 pounds, was slight of build. He was a musician and a massage therapist. He lived an unassuming, relatively conventional life on the Autism Spectrum. On August 25, 2019, he was walking home from a convenience store, bringing his brother an iced tea, and, because of anemia, wearing an open-faced ski mask to keep his face warm.
McClain has been described by family, friends and business clients as "gentle" and "child-like"
