Jody Aron Wilson

Deadly force

According to Jody Wilson's mother, she called 911 for help because he was acting paranoid, possibly due to bath salts. Deputies responded around 10:30 p.m. and said Wilson threatened to shoot. According to police, the deputies negotiated with Wilson, trying to get him to put the weapons down. Wilson came outside and allegedly started shooting at the deputies. Three of them returned fire, killing Wilson. A Wood County grand jury cleared the deputies, but Wilson's mother said: "What I saw was totally different from what the police stated, and I don't know if the grand jury even heard my side of the story." She contended her son wasn't aware the police were outside her home.
