[Walt Decker] knows firsthand the weapon's ability to incapacitate a person. During a training demonstration last month, the deputy chief agreed to be "tased" for five seconds, the same way a subject might be subdued in the field. Decker says he didn't experience the incredible pain some people report, but he describes the effect as "very intense, concentrated muscle contractions" that felt comparable to "grabbing an electric cattle fence. A report published in May by the Arizona Republic -- Taser International is headquartered in Scottsdale -- documented 153 cases in the U.S. and Canada in which people died after receiving a police [Taser] strike. The newspaper, which reviewed autopsy records, police documents, media reports and Taser International's own records dating back to Septemb...

Many Taser-associated deaths have been written up by coroners as being attributable to "excited delirium," a condition that includes frenzied or aggressive behavior, rapid heart rate and aggravating factors related to an acute mental state and/or drug-related psychosis. When such suspects are stunned, especially while already being held down or hogtied, deaths seem to occur after a period of "sudden tranquility," as [Taser] explains in its CD-ROM training material entitled, "Sudden Custody Death: Who's Right and Who's Wrong." In that same material, the company warns officers to "try to minimize the appearance of mishandling suspects. In addition, Taser has developed a potent gimmick to sell its futuristic line of weapons. In 2003, Taser premiered the X-26. According to Taser's promotio...

Heretofore all less lethal weapons relied on pain compliance or the mental incapacitation engendered by threatening to use a less lethal tool to bring a violent or potentially violent confrontation to a conclusion. Since 1999, TASER International's technology in their Advanced TASER® M26(TM) and X26(TM) ECDs have defeated suspects' ability to resist as well as their will to do so resulting in far fewer violent encounters ending in death or serious injury to suspects or law enforcement personnel.

TASER International makes no recommendations about where to put the device on the use-of-force continuum, says [Steve Turtle]. But 86 percent of law enforcement agencies deploy the [Taser] "on a par with pepper spray," he says. "[The Taser] is designed to be used at a lower level - at the baton level, at the pepper spray-level. ... Ninety-nine percent of the people aren't armed when a Taser is deployed" against them. "The Taser is not a replacement for deadly force. Phoenix police, for instance, once offered voluntary Taser exposure to officers, reports Lt. David M. Kelly, coordinator of Phoenix's Taser program. At first, the officer being shocked would be supported by two other students, who caught him as he fell. But "We found that the subjects seemed to 'get away' from the students ...
