From the article:
"a 24-year-old Marine Corps veteran put Neely in a chokehold, incapacitating him and releasing him after he stopped struggling and passed out,” Inez Stepman wrote.
When Neely died at the hospital..."
Wait a minute.
How could the veteran have "killed" him, when he "died" at the hospital...?
Folks, I admit to being simple-minded, but this doesn't make sense to me.
