Officers were found to have acted reasonably when force was used on a combative man who was experiencing a diabetic crisis. This case established the “reasonable officer” standard. Would a reasonable officer with similar training act similarly given the totality of circumstances? If so, the actions are objectively reasonable given the totality of circumstances.
An officer can only react to what is know. At the time. Additional information gathered after the event is inadmissible because the event resulting in force can only be judged within the scope of what was known.
