How they died

Deadly force

The schizophrenic Caccamo severely beat his elderly mother and stepfather in the home they shared. The police arrived and used nonlethal force (stun and pepper), but Caccamo was wearing a bullet proof vest and went toward officers, two of whom were stabbed and left with nonfatal wounds. Officer James Kelley shot and killed Caccamo.
