How they died

Deadly force

Police allege Blunk sexually abused a minor and was in possession of child pornography. An officer and a detective visited Blunk to interrogate him. During the interrogation, Blunk pulled a gun he had hidden and threatened them. The detective warned him to put the gun down and when Blunk didn't comply he shot and killed him. Florida Department of Law Enforcement found shooting justified.
