Dalian Atkinson died after an encounter with West Mercia Police officers in Shropshire in 2016.
A police officer has been found not guilty of assaulting an ex-footballer the night he was killed.
The former striker, who played for Aston Villa, Sheffield Wednesday and Ipswich Town, was said to have been in a disturbed mental state - likely as a result of a build-up of toxins linked to renal failure. "All of this happened in such a quick amount of time," she told jurors. "It's hard to put into words all these years later, but it was terrifying. You have had a Taser fail.
Mr Atkinson died in hospital about an hour after Monk tasered him and kicked him in the head with enough force to leave imprints of his bootlaces.
