“All in all, we found consistentlystrong effects for CEDs inincreasing the safety of officers andsuspects,”

• “[TASER] CEDs represent a saferalternative than other use of forcemethods.”

• “Studies by law enforcementagencies deploying [TASER] CEDshave shown reduced injuries to bothofficers and suspects in use-of-forceencounters and reduced use ofdeadly force.”

• “CED use is associated with a significantly lowerrisk of injury than physical force, so it should beconsidered as an alternative in situations thatwould otherwise result in the application ofphysical force.”

• “The risks of cardiac arrhythmias or death remainlow and make CEDs more favorable than otherweapons.”
