- Description
- The trial of officers Matthew Collins, Christopher Burbank and Timothy Rankine came to a close Wednesday afternoon following nine weeks of testimony and days of closing arguments punctuated by repeated calls from the defense to dismiss the case and small protests outside the County-City Building in downtown Tacoma calling for justice for Manuel Ellis. Just as special prosecutor Patty Eakes finished her rebuttal closing arguments late in the afternoon, attorneys for the officers again asked Superior Court Judge Bryan Chushcoff to dismiss the case for prosecutorial misconduct based on the last words Eakes told jurors.

- Lawyers for three Tacoma police officers charged in the death of Manuel Ellis cross examined Thursday afternoon the medical examiner who conducted Ellis’ autopsy about other in-custody death cases that he determined were accidents rather than homicides. Dr. Thomas Clark, the former Pierce County medical examiner, ruled Ellis’ death a homicide in 2020 and determined he died of hypoxia, a form of oxygen deprivation, as a result of physical restraint. Other significant conditions, he said, were Ellis’ meth intoxication and heart disease.

- Dr. Curtis Veal, the state’s pulmonology expert, noted that Manuel Ellis had been involved in physical activity with the officers, had methamphetamine in his system and had been shocked with a Taser. Plus officer Christopher "Shane" Burbank was sitting on Ellis’ back when officer Timothy Rankine arrived and took over in Burbank's position. When medics arrived and took his pulse, it was 80 beats per minute, which suggested that he was suffering from Bradycardia — an abnormally low heart rate, Veal said.
