How they died
Less-than-lethal force
A deputy pulled over a other in which Cassel was a passenger. Cassel, who appeared to be under the influence, stepped out of the other and ran. The deputy pursued Cassel, who resisted arrest. During the struggle, the deputy tasered himself by mistake, then tasered Cassel. Cassel stopped breathing and died. The Texas Ranger Division investigated.
