        I guess it is going to be safe to assume that this might become the most expensive IDB in history.

        Concussion helps explain going limp and erratic behavior. Plus, at 69, his teeth and bones aren't as strong as those of a younger person!

        69 with apparent mental/emotional issues as well. No protocol should involve excessive use of force against him for refusing to get up!
