At Rest

Deadly force
Officers claim they discovered a car riddled with bullets that appeared to be firebombed. When they determined the owner was wanted for a shooting by the Holmes County Sheriff's Department, officers tried to make an arrest, and officer Dewayne Montgomery shot Thomas in a struggle. His family says Thomas was maced and was not armed.
This record exists so that Roderick Dewayne Thomas, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
