Officers subdued McClain using a carotid hold that restricts blood flow to the brain. Paramedics injected him with the sedative ketamine. He was taken unconscious to University Hospital and Marc Moss was later one of his doctors. He told the court, “like all my patients I take care of I wanted the best outcome for Mr. McClain. I wanted him to survive.” But he testified when he saw McClain four days after the incident the 23-year-old could only breathe with a ventilator.
