    Prayers to the family.

    Wouldn't have know about this but went to mother in laws house and was flipping through NY Daily news and read this article. Crazy.

    How can having a heart attack be ruled a homicide?

    He suffered it while being taken in to custody. Most likely they're going to rule it as such so they can conduct an investigation and make sure there's no foul play on the part of the officers. Have to make sure everything's above board.

    If the arresting TLC officers caused Mr. Machado enough physical stress to have a heart attack. I would consider that a homicide.
    A very sad news. My condolences to Scott and his family.

    Scott could have easily paid his dad whatever salary he was making as a cabbie and allowed him to live a more relaxing life with good healthcare

    This is not appropriate to say about someone just lost his father.
    I don't think Scott makes that much money. Does he still play for any team now?
    Also, American parents usually don't want to be a financial burden to their children.

    He's in the dleague right? I think they get paid nothing compared to NBA salaries. If Scott was a millionaire, I'm sure his family would be taken care of. Also, its not fair to just generalize something so complicated like that into one statement like yours.
