actions of \u2062administering a large dose of ketamine to \u200bMcClain, who had \u2063been forcefully restrained by police, were deemed reckless by prosecutors despite not assessing his condition or vital\u2062 signs.<\/p>\n<p>McClain&#8217;s cause of death was determined to be &#8220;complications\u2063 of ketamine administration following forcible restraint&#8221; in an updated autopsy\u2062 report\u2064 released in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>During the trial, the paramedics argued that they were treating \u200dMcClain\u200c for &#8220;excited delirium,&#8221; a controversial diagnosis often used to describe individuals being subdued by police.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>&#8220;During our training, we were told numerous times that this\u2063 is a safe, effective drug,&#8221; Cichuniec\u2063 told the court. &#8220;That is the\u2064 only drug we can carry that can stop what is going\u2062 on and calm him down so we can control his airway,\u2062 we can control him and the safety of him, get him to the hospital as quick as we can.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In addition, the three Aurora police officers involved in McClain&#8217;s arrest are also facing trial for their roles in the incident. <\/p>\n<p>Officers Jason Rosenblatt and Nathan Woodyard were found not guilty, but Officer Randy Roedema was convicted of\u200c criminally\u200c negligent homicide and \u200bassault, leading to \u200dhis termination from the department.<\/p>\n<p>The five first responders were charged in connection \u2062with McClain&#8217;s arrest \u200bon August\u2063 24th, 2019, after\u2062 responding to a report about a\u2064 &#8220;suspicious person&#8221; wearing a ski mask.<\/p>\n<p>McClain&#8217;s\u200d death gained national attention \u2063following the killings of George Floyd\u200b and Breonna Taylor\u200d in 2020, sparking \u2064widespread protests.<\/p>\n<p>Stay informed!
