The story marks another high-profile instance of Texas police involvement in the deaths of civilians they were sent to help. On Tuesday, the Dallas Morning News published body camera footage of a 2016 incident that led to the death of an unarmed man who had called 911 for help when he felt frightened (possibly because he was off prescription medication or because of drug use, or both). The footage revealed that the officers held the man for 13 minutes against the ground, even as he cried out in fear. The video appeared to contradict the official police account that the man had been combative, and it showed that the man died while or immediately after being restrained by police. The three officers involved escaped criminal charges and after a suspension were returned to active duty.
