Miles Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 Mr Rigg died in police custody back in August 2008 after being held in the "prone position" for "more than seven minutes" by police officers. A very sad case where it has taken some 10 years to rule that the police officers concerned acted reasonably. The background to this is that Mr Rigg had been seen aiming karate kicks at other members of the public for no apparent reason. His family are still unhappy over this .. I do wonder if they would have held the same opinion if someone else had aimed karate kicks at them for no apparent reason and that person had been restrained for a short time by police officers and died as a result?
