At Rest

Less-than-lethal force
On Aug. 30, Jason Gonzalez was approached by CHP troopers as he was walking on Highway 58. He allegedly resisted being detained and a struggle ensued in which he was placed in handcuffs. He lost consciousness and died five days later at hospital. The coroner said he died from complication of physical restraint with neck compression.
This record exists so that Jason Gonzalez, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
