At Rest

Deadly force
Two Loudon County deputies went to the home to serve a warrant for aggravated statutory rape of a 13-year-old. The man's girlfriend invited officers into the home, Thongsavanh Vandarack reportedly was instructed to take his hands out of his pocket. When he did, police said he pulled out a replica handgun. The officers shot and killed him.
This record exists so that Thongsavanh Vandarack, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
