Australian Officer Guilty of Manslaughter for Tasering 95-Year-Old

An Australian police officer, Kristian James Samuel White, was found guilty of manslaughter for using a Taser on 95-year-old Clare Nowland, a dementia patient in a nursing home, leading to her death. The incident occurred when Nowland, holding a steak knife, was tasered by White, causing her to fall and sustain fatal injuries. The case has sparked debate over police use of Tasers, especially in situations involving vulnerable individuals. White faces up to 25 years in prison, and the state's police Taser policy remains unchanged.
