Fouad Kaady

How they died

Deadly force

Questions remain about the incident but clearly Kaady's car collided with three other vehicles after it somehow caught fire. Disoriented, naked, and with third-degree burns over 40% of his body Kaady fled. He was found bleeding and with skin hanging off, relatively compliant with officers until they ordered him to lay prone on pavement. Tasered three times, he resisted and was fatally shot at close range in a gruesome, senseless death. This was ruled justified by the county. The family reached two separate $1M settlements with the city of Sandy and with the county.
