YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The doctor who performed Elijah McClain's autopsy told jurors Tuesday that McClain died from complications related to the ketamine injection and said he found no physical injuries he could pin on officers' action.

"It's a statement of fact. He received ketamine following forcible restraint," said Dr. Stephen Cina, who performed McClain's autopsy for the Adams County Coroner's Office. "I am not saying he died of ketamine administration and forcible restraint, because if I had thought in my mind the forcible restraint killed him, I’d have made the whole thing homicide. I'm not sure what the role of forcible restraint was."
