Original Note:
The Individual, Jason Jones, did not intentionally set himself on fire as the post suggests. Rather he doused himself in hand sanitiser and was then tased by an officer igniting the sanitiser and sending him ablaze. https://nytimes.com/2023/10/13/nyregion/taser-death-catskill.html#:~:text=The%20man%2C%20Jason%20Jones%2C%20died,deployed%20a%20Taser%20on%20him
