At Rest

Deadly force
Police were called in to White's apartment by a mental health caseworker who was having trouble with him. Well aware of his mental condition, police claimed to have heard the sound of a shotgun being racked from within his apartment. White appeared and drew knives, similar to steak knives, from both of his pants pockets. The officers repeatedly tasered him, could not make him stay down, then fatally shot him.
This record exists so that Sierra L. White, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
