Keenan Darnell Anderson, a teacher who was repeatedly shocked with a Taser by LAPD, died from an enlarged heart and cocaine use, according to an autopsy report. The manner of Anderson’s death was undetermined but the cause was listed as “effects of cardiomyopathy and cocaine use” and his death was “determined hours after restraint and conducted energy device use”, the coroner’s report said. Anderson's relatives have filed a $50m claim with the city, alleging officers unreasonably used deadly force, failed to follow training and filed false police reports.
