Cause of Death
Less-than-lethal force
Jesse Greer was killed by injuries received in custody after being forcibly removed from a cell by several people, held on the booking-room floor, fitted with a spit mask and placed in a restraint chair. Moments after returning him to the cell, staff "noticed that Greer's color in his face was turning ashen and that his head had tilted back and his eyes were rolling back."An autopsy ruled the death natural, "the result of excited delirium, likely due to chronic methamphetamine use," court documents state. Media reports don't state categorically whether he was booked, so this incident may be outside of FatalEncounters dataset, which does not include individuals after they've been booked into the jail or prison system.
