How they died

With a history of mental health issues and misbehavior toward the police, Woolfolk reacted badly to deputies serving him a court order for psychiatric evaluation. The sheriff wasn't certain about the number of times they tasered him. After they wrestled him to the ground, he became unresponsive and stopped breathing.
