How they died

Deadly force

Mentally ill woman, who remains unidentified in media accounts, called 911 and told the operator she was distraught, suicidal and if police were sent, she would goad them into killing her. When three officers arrived at her residence, the 5'5" woman greeted them at the door wielding an aluminium baseball bat. Two officers opened fire, killing her. Shooting caused public controversy over police treatment of mentally ill people.
