Colorado’s law enforcement officers will no longer recognize “excited delirium” after a state regulatory board voted to strike the controversial diagnosis on Friday from all training documents starting in January.
The move, which was passed at the state Peace Officers Standards and Training board meeting unanimously and without debate, comes as two Aurora paramedics face felony charges for giving Elijah McClain, an unarmed, innocent Black man, an overdose of ketamine, in part, because they believed he was suffering from the condition.
Kinda just sounds like the normal panic/fight-or-flight response that you might have if a cop was about to murder you for fun.
“Excited Delirium” was invented specifically to hide the cause of death when cops taser someone to death.
That’s why it’s not recognized by any medical source.
