Deadly force
Gray, mentally ill, repeatedly threatened to kill family members. Deputies from the Precinct 1 Mental Health Unit went to Gray's apartment to take him to a mental hospital. Gray pulled a butcher knife from his sleeve. Deputies shot at him with a stun gun or guns. Deputy Marvin Hamilton tried to disarm Gray. During the struggle, Grey unholstered Deputy Hamilton's .357 Magnum revolver and fired it once. Deputies Andy Reyna Jr. and Chris Jaris shot at Gary a total of 10 or 11 times, killing him.
