I've noticed some of the posters here seem to be referring to the tasers as possibly malfunctioning. This may actually not be the case: some individuals under the influence of substances such as meth or PCP sometimes are not affected at all by a taser strike that would take down a sober man; for that matter, there are some drunks I have seen who have shrugged off tasers while in their cups. I once witnessed LAPD officers trying to take down a rampaging man high on PCP; not only did he shrug off three taser strikes, he also was unfazed by repeated baton blows; one officer actually broke his baton on the back of the guy. The guy even ran through a massive floor to ceiling car dealership showroom window and didn't even slow down. It finally took the combined efforts of several police officers to swarm and smother him to the ground. So, those tasers used in the case cited in previous posts probably were functional; they just didn't function on the deceased suspect...
