Garner was a criminal with 31 arrests. The choke hold did not not kill him. It was used in a conventional takedown supervised by a black female police sergeant because he was resisting arrest. He died of cardiac arrest on his way to the hospital. He was morbidly obese, diabetic, asthmatic, and had other health issues. He obviously lead an unhealthy lifestyle.
