- Summary:
- A report on excited delirium, a controversial term used in many cases of death in police custody. It is not recognized by the American Medical Association, the World Health Organization or the American Psychiatric Association. Psychiatrists argue the phrase is utilized by the police as a way of escaping blame and is disproportionately associated with young black males. Includes interviews with Sheneen McClain, whose son was killed; Dave Young, Adams County District Attorney; Dr. Paul Appelbaum, a leading psychiatrist who oversees changes to psychiatry's main diagnostic manual; Barb Johnson, whose son was hospitalized and almost killed; and Joe Baker, paramedic.
