Pre-planning an hour long beating with a length of hose doesn't come under any classification of accident I'm aware of.

So what you're saying is if someone through their work accidently electrocutes a member of the public, then that member of the public should just, oh what's the phrase? "Man up" and ignore the unnecessary pain that was inflicted on them?

Accept the apology and move on. I don't think throwing money at them solves anything.

Possibly one of the best arguments there is for all frontline officers to have immediate access to Tasers. In this case CS done nothing except take out some cops, baton strikes meant getting within machete range and an ARV looked like it was still some time off.

If he wasn't content to be contained in one area but had gone on the rampage the results could have been horrific.
