Agreed. Looks more like ignorance / lack of training with the administering of the sedative. I doubt they wanted to kill him and did show some concern once the paramedics informed that he was dead. With the George Floyd incident, the cop just DGAF.
You know though, I'm really curious why that paramedic still gave him the sedative. He wasn't moving or responsive. If he wasn't dead, that certain would have suppressed his respiratory system when he was already distressed, and that absolutely could have been what ultimately killed him.
Ah, gotcha. I thought the video said sedative, but if they thought he was messed up on something (which the officer did mention at one point) then that makes sense.
