I assume you're talking about Eric Garner. He was not strangled to death. He died because he was handcuffed with his hands behind his back, and he was laid prone on the ground. It is well known that this makes it very difficult for most people (and _especially_ overweight/obese people) to breath. This is explicitly against NYPD protocol, and in my opinion, everyone on that scene (EMS included) should have been charged in his death.
