At Rest

Deadly force
Officer Jeff Ferneau shot Donald Gaches when he allegedly came at him with a knife. Ferneau, along with officers Terry Tauai and Dak Henning of the Missouri State substation, responded to an alleged assault at Gaches apartment. Gaches was allegedly wielding a knife and stepped toward Ferneau, who fired his weapon once, killing Gaches instantly.
This record exists so that Donald Gaches, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
