How they died
Deadly force
Four deputies and one DNR officer went to Chad Williams' home for a mental health petition that was issued by a judge. Williams refused to come to the door. While deputies were at the home, a neighbor told them that Williams had threatened him with an ax. Deputies got a search warrant and went into the home, and Williams allegedly confronted them, wielding the ax. They reportedly asked him to drop the axe, but he did not, so they shot and killed him.
