Estyl Leroy “Lee” Hall

Less-than-lethal force

Hall had called his landlord out to his rural property, only to yell and curse at him, and throw a piece of rebar. The landlord called police; police arrived to a similar reception. Armed ony with an ax handle Hall fled from police and locked himself into an RV. In the course of being extracted from his RV and tasered, Hall fell and broke his neck, dying shortly afterward. The family later settled with the county for $425K.
