tl;dr: "Excited delirium" is a thing that was made up, is not a real thing, and is used by medical examiners to excuse police for murdering (usually non-white) people.
Oh, so its like 'body language experts' and 'polygraphs', more fun, scientifically baseless nonsense.
Wait so when someone says "I can't breathe," they have excited delirium, which is a 'condition' that kills you... A condition that the cops caused...
How is that better?
It's "better" because then the ME doesn't have to write "excessive force by police" on the line next to "Cause of death."
