Officer R. Hensley pulled Franklin over for driving without headlights and without a front license plate. During the stop, Officer Hensley found what was later confirmed to be cocaine, arrested Franklin and offered him medical attention in case he had swallowed any drugs. Franklin denied having done so. He started to convulse when Officer Hensley took him to a police station.
