How they died
Deadly force
Two Kershaw County deputies and a South Carolina Department of Natural Resources officer went to Lori Jean Ellis' home to execute four bench warrants for failing to appear in court on various charges. When officers went to the back door of the house, they say she was there holding a rifle. Police said she fired at least one shot at them, and the DNR officer and one of the Kershaw County deputies returned fire, killing her.
