Porter Dean Feller

How they died

No

Officer Matthew Kerby lied to the mother of a mentally ill man--Porter Feller--telling her that he'd been in a hit and run and that the victim might not make it. After days of agonizing over the woman's "injury," he killed himself. The Seattle Office of Police Accountability found Kerby at least partially culpable, and he was suspended for several days.
