Denzel Curnell

How they died

Deadly force

After a brief stint in basic training and Army discharge, Curnell took a pistol and walked to his sister's apartment house nearby. Detained by the police as suspicious Curnell was made to lie down on his stomach at gunpoint. As the officer stood over him, Curnell shot himself in the head. The reported forensic evidence was largely consistent with that story but doubts remained with the family.
