You know, the one bit of information that we are missing from this discussion is "taser policy". I don't know much about tasers but what are the rules regarding their use? If the cops were indeed following policy then it's the policy that needs examination. If the cops violated policy then their training, suspensions what-have-yous would then come into play.
Is taser use considered a lesser form of force as opposed to dragging a suspect away? Is taser use the acceptable use of "forcibly removed" according to departmental policy?
