Dumb knee jerk reaction. Having said that, cops are not medical personnel and do not have the training to identify ExDS compared to other presentations and uncooperative behavior.
They should not be calling any behavior that. They should just say the jumbject displayed hostile behavior and did xyz.
EMS has to get better about ketamine doses and when to use K verses just versed.
Excited Delirium is not a real condition and was made up by police to give themselves an excuse to use excessive force on someone the police deem as standard uncooperative
Kinda just sounds like the normal panic/fight-or-flight response that you might have if a cop was about to murder you for fun.
"Excited Delirium" was invented specifically to hide the cause of death when cops taser someone to death.
That's why it's not recognized by any medical source.
Excited Delerium doesn't exist. No actual medical body recognizes it as an actual disorder. It is a term coined solely by police to give an excuse for why someone died in their care.
So weird to think someone would be put into the position that they need to administer benzos to someone because they're in danger of violence from the cops for not promptly complying
And that'll be coming from the people displaying "hostile behavior" on a daily basis, then?
