  1. Sounds like the folks in the med tent assumed psychedelics when it may have been simple overheating? Strapped to a gurney, and Ketamine. That sounds overzealous and weird?

    1. We can’t assume anything in this case (unlike the previous commenters) b/c there are 2 sides to this story…

  2. -> Misuse of ketamine by EMS and police has become a big problem in this country. It’s further the case that police in the United States have tend to have problems differentiating medical conditions from drug impairment.

    -> A close family member of mine was held by Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office for “being intoxicated” despite being totally sober. (As was later proven by a blood test.) When trying to get this family member out of custody, it was clear that HCSO has a systemic inability to properly differentiate medical conditions from substance intoxication.

    -> Matthew Hyde’s LinkedIn profile shows that he left Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office just a couple months after the alleged event occurred, which is suspicious.

    -> 42 U.S.C. section 1983 claims can be very difficult to litigate. Attorneys are usually pretty selective about these types of cases and the 3 retained attorneys for plaintiff are well-respected.

    I’m not giving HCSO nor Hyde any benefit of the doubt here.
