At Rest

Less-than-lethal force
After a rollover crash in DeKalb County, a passenger from the other was found across the county line, where he was approached by White County deputies. The deputies tried to detain Mauris Crespos, but he reportedly started assaulting the officers, who electrocuted him with a Taser before handcuffing him and taking him to jail, where they discovered he had been killed. Cause of death was ruled to be acute combined drug intoxication.
This record exists so that Mauris Crespos, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
