18. A quibble about 'Accelerating away at a high rate of speed' and a question about tasers

Thu Jan 8, 2026, 05:39 PM

Jan 8

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity with respect to time. The document states that he ‘accelerated away at a high rate of speed’ which is sloppy wording and not too logical. You can accelerate at a high rate, you can accelerate while driving at a high speed (also imprecise) — but really they could have gotten more specific.

Second, this states that he fired the taser twice, but Munoz was undeterred. If you are pressing on an accelerator and are struck with a taser, would your leg muscle relax (let off the gas) or continue to be energized (remain in same position)?

It's already in current court records, a matter of public record. No doxxing necessary. ancianita Jan 8 #6

If a whole bunch of people take to the internet and broadcast his address and other contact info from those records AZJonnie Jan 8 #11

Sure. But then there's the well known fact that he's a resident of Minneapolis. ancianita Jan 8 #12

If I, for example, went into public records and found out where Ross lives and other contact information AZJonnie Jan 8 #19

Yes. Here are previous court records with photos showing Ross doing just that with a "suspect" charged. ancianita Jan 8 #9

Certainly not defending Munoz in this circumstance, but this still seems like a bonehead move by Ross AZJonnie Jan 8 #15

Not at all. Munoz should have gotten a lawyer before this encounter, because photos show that how this arrest proceeded ancianita Jan 8 #16
