A man who died after being tasered by police was remembered today by friends and family.

Graves was tasered three times after leading police on a foot chase early wednesday morning. He died shortly thereafter. The coroner has not determined a cause of death, but did find drugs in Graves' system.

Ali Graves says the media and police have unfairly used this fact to legitimize his cousin's death. He says today's vigil will begin the healing process, and help in the family's cause to eliminate taser-use.
