How they died
Deadly force
Bonnie Figueroa-Ortiz had bipolar disorder and was under mental distress when she disappeared in the woods behind her home. The father of her child reported her missing but she eluded deputies responding to the scene. The next day, Figueroa was spotted crossing a road near her home. She was brandishing a handgun and pointing it at her head. Deputies were pursuing her on foot and allege Figueroa-Ortiz fired several shots at them before a deputy shot and killed her. Witnesses say she didn't fire any shots.
