    400-lb man dies after fight with Cincy cops

    Report: Man beaten by police had no internal injuries Coroner's office expects full toxicology results Tuesday Tuesday, December 2, 2003 Posted: 11:25 PM EST (0425 GMT) A videotape shows police officers struggling with Nathaniel Jones. CINCINNATI, Ohio (CNN) -- The man who died after being beaten by police in southwestern Ohio had bruises on his legs but no sign of injuries to his internal organs, according to a coroner's statement Tuesday. The Hamilton County coroner's office said it hopes to rule on the cause of 41-year-old Nathaniel Jones' death Wednesday. Jones, who was black and weighed 350 pounds, died in a hospital a short time after being clubbed by Cincinnati police with nightsticks in an effort to subdue him after he lunged at them. Five of the officers on the scene were white and one was black. The coroner's statement said Jones had linear bruises on his right calf, right thigh, right buttock and right lower back, but "there was no evidence of transmission of force to internal organs." Jones had "a markedly enlarged heart, consistent with hypertensive heart disease," a coroner's statement said Monday. Police later found about a third of a gram of powdered cocaine and two cigarettes dipped in PCP, or "angel dust," in Jones' car, the coroner's office said Tuesday. Preliminary tests showed the presence of both in Jones' system. "Each of these drugs is a central nervous system stimulant and has been associated in some cases with bizarre and violently aggressive behavior," the statement said. The toxicology report will show exactly how much of each substance was in Jones' system. The coroner's office hopes to release a toxicology report Tuesday. The case has stirred fears in the Ohio metropolis, where the killing of an unarmed black man by a white police officer in 2001 sparked three nights of rioting. The police, the FBI and the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division are gathering information on the incident. Police have placed the six officers involved on administrative leave, as is standard in cases where a suspect dies in police custody. The Citizen Complaint Authority, created after the 2001 riots, also is looking into the incident. Police chief defends officers Meanwhile Tuesday, Cincinnati's police chief said a police cruiser video camera that recorded the incident indicates the officers acted properly. Chief Thomas Streicher Jr. said, "Officers came under attack. At one point, they're defending themselves. At another point, a transition is made to where they are trying to arrest a person for a felony act of violence. ... Certainly, the standard for use of force in the United States is that the officers can use force to defend themselves and/or to overcome resistance to arrest. (CNN Access: Cincinnati police chief) "These things take a tremendous toll on the officers," Streicher said, noting the widespread media attention. The video camera was rolling when police got to the scene, but there was a brief gap in the tape. Streicher said the camera automatically shuts off when the police cruisers are parked. That's done to avoid the running down the car's battery. The camera can be turned on by a remote control on an officer's belt, and that's what might have happened as the situation escalated. "If so, I think it was a very wise decision on the part of the officers," he said. Police recount incident The incident began at 5:45 a.m. Sunday, when the manager of a White Castle restaurant called the Cincinnati Fire Department to report that a man was unconscious on the floor. Police gave this account: When paramedics arrived, they found Jones and a woman who was with him, who was also in some sort of medical distress. Jones then regained consciousness, began acting strangely and left the restaurant. At that point, following standard procedure, the fire officials called police. A police videotape shows a squad car arriving at the restaurant at 5:58 a.m., at which point the recording device was switched off. (Account of video) During the next few moments, which are not visible on tape, the two officers from the squad car approached Jones in the parking lot of the restaurant. The tape resumes rolling at 6 a.m. An officer is heard saying to Jones, "You gotta tell me what's going on." Jones then says, "White boy, redneck," and the tape shows him lunging at the officer and attempting to put him in a headlock. At that point, the two officers -- both of whom are white -- wrestle Jones to the ground and use their metal nightsticks, appearing to strike him around the shoulders and torso numerous times and yelling repeatedly, "Put your hands behind your back!" Soon after, four more officers arrive, including one black officer, and an apparent reference to pepper spray is heard on the tape. The view of Jones, who is being subdued on the pavement in front of the squad car, is obscured from the camera, which is mounted on the dash. At this point, what sounds like "Help!" is heard coming repeatedly from the pile of men. It becomes progressively fainter with each utterance. A few minutes later, one officer asks for paramedics. "He's got a pulse; he's just not breathing," the man says of Jones. Jones was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

    I boil it down to those who have kids and don't. Your outlook on life will change if/when you have kids. Things that you didn't find harmful take on a new light.

    Ketchup must be Heinez and sliced cheese needs to be Kraft. I prefer Mayo to Miracle Whip (pussies) so I like Best Foods or Nalley.
