Choke-hold death makes case for police body cameras

The death of Tashi Brown would be a lot more controversial if it happened five years ago.
As the Review-Journal’s Wesley Juhl reported, Brown died two Sundays ago after Las Vegas Metro officer Kenneth Lopera stunned him seven times with a Taser, punched him repeatedly and then applied a neck restraint hold. After his death, police determined he committed no crime.
