Унтер-офицерская вдова

1. A lawyer for two police officers says the court cannot rule out the possibility that a man was screaming with joy when he was being repeatedly tasered at the Perth Watch House more than five years ago.

2. In his part of the courtroom theater, Cicinelli defense lawyer Michael Schwartz admitted cops used force on Thomas but, despite him falling silent during the attack and lying in a huge pool of his own blood, he was medically fine when EMT's put him into an ambulance. /.../ Schwartz is asking jurors to declare that Thomas killed himself and police, his close companions during his final minutes alive, neither contributed to the death nor committed any criminal acts. His line--delivered without cracking a smile--was that an "overexerting," 37-year-old Thomas beat himself to death by struggling with concerned, compassionate officers.

какой-то suffered from an enlarged heart from drug abuse и suffered from schizophrenia бездомный сначала "disheveled man jiggling the handles of car doors in a busy transit center parking lot" а потом буянил на полицию так, что аж три патруля прикатило. Все понятно, задача адвоката - придумать пусть самый бредовую, но прокатывающую формулировку. Негра уже повесили, ваша честь, осталось только вынести приговор.
