“Our analysis shows that police officers are using Tasers in [an] inappropriate, irresponsible and downright deadly manner...This disturbing pattern of misuse and abuse endangers lives. Law enforcement agencies that choose to use Tasers must adopt clear and effective policies governing their use, and they must do so without delay.”
- New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU) Executive Director Donna Lieberman
