At Rest

Deadly force
Oliver had two outstanding warrants for writing bad checks. When he was pulled over for running a red light, he bolted on foot and into nearby residential backyards, jumping fences. The police narrative was that during a physical struggle Oliver tried to get ahold of the officer's gun, and he was fatally shot two or three times.
This record exists so that Ricardo Oliver, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
