How they died
Deadly force
As the result of a domestic dispute Collins held his girlfriend hostage with two butchers knives. Responding deputies tried to lure him from behind a sliding-glass door with cigarettes, then tasered him, which only made him angry. He slashed and wounded one of the deputies, for which he was shot 15 times and killed.
