Initial reports were that he had three neck vertebrae broken, and that nearly severed his spinal cord. Unless he had serious osteoporosis, that indicates some severe force was used on him, not that he was just held down and then got tossed around in the back of the van.

Here's a Fox News link referencing the "nickel game" that I mentioned in my post #47. According to this article, in 2005 another prisoner died of a fractured spine after a ride in a Baltimore police van.
Once is a coincidence. Twice, not so much.
