At Rest

Deadly force
Ougel and another man stole a black 1998 Porsche convertible. They were chased from MS into LA by a large number of state, county and local authorities all going around 100 MPH. Ougel's family says he was fully stopped, compliant, in a strawberry field, when a local officer gratuitously killed him with a single shot from six inches away. The city settled a suit in 2010.
This record exists so that Joshua Ougel, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
