How they died

Deadly force

The mother of one of Kilcline's friends called police to have them check on his welfare over worries about his emotional health. In the resulting confrontation, Kilchline charged three officers with an 8-inch steak knife; they shot him a total of nine times and left him critically injured, one-eyed, and permanently paralyzed. He died of his injuries in April 2013. His family filed a lawsuit for excessive force, gross negligence and brutality, collecting $7M from the city.
