[edit] Drunk?

I think the part about Fouad allegedly being drunk deserves removal, as the toxicology report revealed that he was not intoxicated in any way during the time leading up to his death, and the only people making these allegations were the media. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.198.42.29 (talk) 23:28, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Any rationale at all?

I really don't understand this case. The cops pull up to a naked man sitting Indian style in the road after an accident who they know is unarmed and 28 seconds later they've shot him dead, purportedly because their taser didn't work. I can't think of any sequence of events, not self-defense, unjustifiable use of force, nor premeditated murder, that could explain how all that could have happened so fast. I hope editors of this article will try to give one or more plausible explanations of what happened. 70.15.116.59 04:07, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Read the officers' grand jury testimony (http://www.kgw.com/news/pdf/kaady_testimony.pdf) and decide for yourself if that's an accurate description of what happened. 71.65.248.32 03:28, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Except for the fact that almost ALL of the witnesses say that that's not what happened and that the officers are lying... Coolgamer (talk) 22:01, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

"28 Seconds" is a popular alternative theory of the Kaady incident but it's full of unverifiable claims. For example, can we verify that that 28-second sound clip is genuine? No. Have almost ALL the witnesses really said they think the officers are just lying? No. The film deserves mention in the article, but don't try to pass it off as fact. 71.65.248.32 (talk) 13:07, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
