At Rest

Johnson as a rear-seat passenger refused to put his hands above his head in a traffic stop, and a local officer fatally shot him twice in the chest. The officer anticipated that Johnson might have been reaching for a weapon, and indeed a loaded and stolen handgun was found within reach.
This record exists so that Phillip K. Johnson, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
