Elijah McClain Family Lawyer Rips Cops for Pepper Spraying VigilAn attorney for Elijah McClain's family is ripping cops in Aurora, CO for using pepper spray at his violin vigil. The Lawyer should really address the Law that allows the ue of ketamine on people. It's just surreal to me that Elijah McClain was hand cuffed, outnumbered, under control and yet had to be given ketamine as well? Officers suggested the use as well to paramedics? Real concerns. Don’t want to be pepper sprayed, don’t put yourself in that position. Actions have consequences. Got what they ask for. Lucky I’m not in charge, they would be hosed down with dyed water for ID arresting later, gased, & shot with rubber bullets. Peaceful assembly means Peaceful! HILARIOUS !!
