The study, which analyzed detailed records from the cases of eight people who went into cardiac arrest after receiving shocks from a Taser X26 fired at a distance, is likely to add to the debate about the safety of the weapons. Seven of the people in the study died; one survived.

Is it truly non-deadly force? Kevin discusses these findings and the fact that a taser can cause Ventricular fibrillation. This  is a heart rhythm problem that occurs when the heart beats with rapid, erratic electrical impulses. The chambers in your heart (the ventricles) begin to quiver uselessly, instead of pumping blood. During ventricular fibrillation, your blood pressure plummets, cutting off blood supply to your vital organs.

Kevin further discusses the circumstances surrounding the death a police officer, who, during his training with a taser, died of a heart attack.

The Good Humor Ice Cream Truck

Carlson, Meissner, Hart & Hayslett is once again out in the community. On Monday, April 30, 2012, Brian and Shannon Crown were at Espiritu Santo Catholic School handing out ice cream in the truck owned by Paul Meissner. Their two children, Samantha Crown and Christopher Crown,  who are students at the school, helped to hand out the ice cream. Shannon Crown, a paralegal at the office of Carlson, Meissner, Hart & Hayslett, manages the cases that go through the Hillsborough County Court Complex.

The history of the Espiritu Santo School begins with Old Tampa Bay in 1539 when Hernando DeSoto landed and founded the springs, naming them “Espiritu Santo”, meaning Holy Spirit. The mighty tree, which sprouted from a tiny seed of faith planted by missionaries in 1569, has produced much fruit and continues to grow.
