That's my biggest fear about OC,being an AA, it probably would have been a bullet instead of a Taser.
Well, not necessarily. The prosecutor doesn't have to provide citations for not doing anything. He could just say "Harry, err, I mean ya Honor, we're both gettin' tired of this bovine excrement. The guy didn't aim at anyone, he didn't menace anyone, he was walking peacefully down the road, same as you or I. We need to nip this stuff in the bud. I'm requesting to nolle prosequi this case in the interests of justice, because the guy didn't harm or attempt to harm anyone and there's no evidence of malicious intent ('ceptin' maybe on the officer's part).Edit: I guess what we are lacking is the motion by the prosecutor. That'd probably be an interesting read...
These Officers,seem to not know the Texas OC, law themselves.That's real scary in my mind's thinking.Well, not necessarily. The prosecutor doesn't have to provide citations for not doing anything.

Falls they do have an automatic shut off after 5 seconds. Not sure if there are different styles, but the ones I've seen and dealt with have a 5 second deployment.
Meaning once you pull the trigger you can realize and it will send current for 5 seconds. After said 5 seconds it automatically stops sending current but remains on so that all you have to do is pull the trigger again for another 5 second deployment. You can either hold the trigger down and it will discharge past 5 seconds or you can manually flip the on/off switch to terminate before the 5 seconds.
But 1 pull of trigger is supposed to equal 1 5 second burst no longer. If this officer was lying they could tell by downloading the chip in the battery/magazine area of the tazer. Ours keep track of exactly when/how many times/how long each deployment was and it gets downloaded to a spreadsheet so there's no fudging it.
Just wanted to clarify that for you Falls since you made the vehicle comparison I thought you may have been unaware of the mechanism he was talking about. Hope it helps.

That's because they aren't Law Officers, they are Law Enforcement Officers. They're very well trained and constantly practice how to apply handcuffs, how to deploy chemical and electrical weaponry, how to take down suspects, how, when and where to shoot... that's all enforcement stuff.These Officers,seem to not know the Texas OC, law themselves.That's real scary in my mind's thinking.
Welcome deepdiver. Glad to help anyway I can.Thank you for all that information. I was not aware of any of that as to tazer functioning. Appreciate the education!
