How they died
Less-than-lethal force
Officers Jon Heath and Roy Bushey responded to a call about a suicidal man with a knife. Sinclair sat in a truck arguing with his father, the complainant. Officer Heath pulled Sinclair's father out of the driver's seat. Sinclair put the knife to his own throat. Officer Heath tasered him. Officer Bushey broke the passenger's side window of the truck with a baton, then disarmed and handcuffed Sinclair. Sinclair stopped breathing. Officers tried and failed to revive him.
