How they died
Deadly force
Marko, upset and suicidal because of marital problems, carried a .22 caliber weapon into her backyard with deputies present and said, repeatedly, that she would make them kill her. She pointed the weapon at officers, and was killed with a shotgun blast. The same deputy killed George Louis Garrett in similar circumstances 10 years later.
