It really blows my mind that they would put a bag over his head, and then pin him down for 2 minutes thinking that would be fine. The guy was naked, so CLEARLY not armed, or an immediate threat. Sentenced to death on the street, again. No part of this is okay.

he was also HANDCUFFED as well. sitting on the cold ground so it's not like he could just snap the cuffs or kill someone with just his legs.

and if they were really worried about spreading coronavirus why were 3 of the officers not wearing masks in the first picture?

I fail to see how it's too far as opposed to a simple exaggeration, if a man was suffocated in public while naked.

That's a murder, a public murder, and some would consider it a public execution. Not to mention how fucking painful suffocating is, that's practically torturing him to death

for one you can breathe in a spit hood.

There was nothing malicious in this. But people gotta bandwagon cop hate. Naked man running around high on PCP, Cops restrain using no real force besides segmenting, they tried to detain so he can go to the hospital and not an arrest. Cops never gonna win

Then, they put a white spit hood over his head, a device intended to protect officers from a detainees saliva. At the time, New York was in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic.

A medical examiner concluded that Prudes death was a homicide caused by complications of asphyxia in the setting of physical restraint. The report lists excited delirium and acute intoxication by phencyclidine, or PCP, as contributing factors.

It is pretty common for an officer to put a spit guard on a person they suspect could 'spit' at them - and this was during the start of Covid, so I'd say the hood is legitimate. The article later states that the cause of death was asphyxia (suffocation) however, he was apparently on PCP at the time.

This sort of thing should've been investigated more, but it does sound like the officers did as trained - which means it is not the officers' doing that was responsible, but the training or lack thereof they received.

so if you can breathe in a spit hood then that means the cops killed him. he's naked, handcuffed, and sitting on the ground. there were 4 cops there so that means they did use enough force to kill him

So then how did he die?

A mix of intoxicants and physical restraints that are consistent with how police are trained.

Couple years ago I had a brother with mental health problems run out the house buck naked. The cops caught him, draped him in a blanket him and threw him in an ambulance with little to no fuss. This wasn't during corona so they likely weren't super worried about catching sickness so. I wonder if would it be that simple if those cops got a hold of him today.

They're cops. But also masks were harder to come by and not quite as encouraged back in March.

Not that they didnt have direct involvement in this mans death, but that is a spit hood they put over his head not a plastic bag.

Its a mesh material that doesnt effect breathing. He probably asphyxiated due to pressure while he was on his chest if I had to guess.

Almost a mirror image of what happened to tony timpa.

Not really any ill intent here, just a case of either bad training or the cops not knowing what they're doing.

Not for abolishing the cops, but having someone who is trained specifically handle mentally ill people or people that are high as fuck would have helped a lot here.

At times like this, I sometimes think all adults should do a mandatory one year of service as law enforcement, so they have a more accurate idea of what the job entails, the challenges faced, the myths vs reality of real-time response to emergency calls, and such. The same would go for being a waiter in a popular restaurant, armed forces (i.e. military) service member, elementary school teacher, store cashier, computer tech support, and maybe a couple others.

Of course most people will refuse to do it, even if its for their own educational benefit.

Also the proof of the PCP. Family suspected it, he was released from a 5150.

dude was likely not on drugs still. If he was, Im sure it would have already came out.

Nah, its not meant to be taken seriously.

I dont actually believe in mandating much of anything at all, plus it would be fiscally impractical. Its just one of those thoughts that float around when wondering what it would take to get people to understand something or maybe stop doing something, kind of like installing automated 50 cal machine guns at stop lights would help stop people running red lights but would never be accepted by the public because they like running red lights and the cleanup would be ridiculous.
