How they died
Deadly force
Thomas, his son and his son's girlfriend were lost and pulled over to get directions. Off-duty King County sheriff's deputy Melvin Miller approached the pickup and shot and killed Thomas Sr. He said Thomas pulled a gun. Critics and witnesses who disagree with the official narrative say the police officer was brandishing a gun when he approached, was not wearing a uniform, did not identify himself as a police officer, and had no reason to confront Thomas in the manner that he did.
