I believe it came out the dude died of a heart attack related to drugs in his system.
I would posit that most who watch the video would consider the officer's conduct at the very least unreasonable, if not downright abusive. Sure, he may not have been "trying" to kill the guy, but especially considering that same officer's track record of violent and abusive conduct, it's clear to me who is really at fault here.
I'm not saying the officer wasn't doing something wrong, what I am saying is he didn't kill the guy. Sure he should be prosecuted for police brutality but I wouldn't say murder. I think everyone involved was at fault. Including the gentleman who died.
