At Rest

Deadly force
Police attempted a traffic stop on a other in which De la Trinidad was a passenger. After a brief chase, he got out of the car and deputies shot him five times in the back, according to an autopsy. Police maintain that the man was reaching for his waistband when deputies shot at him. He was unarmed.
This record exists so that Jose de la Trinidad, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
