The Metro says Three Colorado police officers and two paramedics have been indicated in the death of Elijah McClain, a black man who was placed in a chokehold and injected with a strong sedative.
McClain, 23, was recorded on police body cameras saying, ‘I’m just different’ before he died in suburban Denver in August 2019.
Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser said that Aurora police officers Nathan Woodyard and Randy Roedema, former officer Jason Rosenblatt and paramedics Jeremy Cooper and Lt Peter Cichuniec were all charged with manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide.
