How they died
Deadly force
At around 3:30 a.m. on Christmas morning, Derrick Jacobs sought medical attention at the Good Samaritan Hospital ER. Officers Tony Cordova and Mike Bogard were in a nearby break room having a holiday meal with hospital staff. According to police, Jacobs became disruptive and threatened medical staff, so the officers responded. Jacobs allegedly advanced toward the officers with a steak knife. Cordova shot Jacobs twice, killing him. The incident took less than 90 seconds, police said.
