The doctor said the number of breaths should have decreased which then leads to death, which is true in an overdose. Wood chest syndrome causes your organs to freeze, stopping your breathing suddenly.
Wasn't he on more than fentanyl? I thought there was alcohol and other drugs found in his system.

That being said, dude should have got off him. He stopped resisting and was already cuffed. Cops are supposed to protect people just as much as they're supposed to catch criminals. At some point, that guy's job required flipping that switch.

"in your custody means in your care. You have a duty to call the ambulance. Look at the officer's training records, he knew what he had to do. He wouldn't even let the firefighters do it."

really driving the unreasonableness of the position and actions, which is a critical element in the Murder/Manslaughter charge.
