Oklahoma Officers Charged With Murder After Allegedly Firing Taser More Than 50 Times

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2020/07/oklahoma-jared-lakey-police-charged-murder-taser.html

According to the data logs in the court filings, Taylor fired his taser 30 times while Dingman fired his taser 23 times . That means Lakey was tased for almost four straight minutes in the nine-minute span.
Spencer Bryan, a lawyer for Lakey’s parents, said that the officers had claimed at first they only used Tasers four times.
