It would probably apply if he had attacked them and continued to struggle and try to attack them while they restrained him. Which isn't really unbelievable when reports state that police were called to the home because he was behaving "erratically and aggressively", he had assaulted the responding officers, and he assaulted the JIAC officers after they gave him a verbal direction to return to a holding room after he tried to pull a computer monitor through a window. If that is the case, then the DA would likely conclude they were defending themselves from a violent aggressor. <cite>Esrac posted [p:961912037] in No charges...

I don't think you need to have been there to know that pinning someone down until they suffocate is wrong FYI that's not what happened, which kind of proves his point. https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/prosecutor-charges-black-kansas-teens-custody-death-82330494 Bennett said the intake specialist later told investigators that he informed Lofton he would be released to his guardian. The teen walked out of the cell. A security officer arrived and tried to help get Lofton back into the holding room after Lofton tried to grab a computer monitor from the intake counter. Lofton hit the intake specialist, knocking his glasses to the ground, according to Bennett's report. The two staff members then struggled with Lofton before more staff members arrived. Staff then shackled Lofton's ankles, put him on his stomach on the floor, then struggled with him some more before handcuffing him, according to Bennett. Around that time, staff said Lofton began to snore, Bennett's report says. A few minutes later, staff members realized Lofton had no pulse. They began chest compressions and called emergency personnel, just before 5:15 a.m., the report said. A December autopsy report ruled the death a homicide and contradicted an earlier, preliminary finding that the teenager had not suffered apparent life-threatening injuries. The autopsy said that the teens heart and breathing stopped after he was handcuffed while lying on his stomach. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
