Tim Mayhugh transitioning to Sarah

How they died

Deadly force

Mayhugh apparently rear-ended another other. At first, he wouldn't let deputies help him out of his car, then, after running into a nearby field, threatened a deputy with a knife then a hammer. The Daily Record: "Undersheriff Rob DeGroot said the man, who had breast implants and was dressed in women's clothing, was unresponsive to Olson's commands and then displayed a knife to Olson." Fatal Encounters apologizes for the occasional use of birth names for transgender people. Police and news media often report the birth names instead of the real names, so we have to have both in our name field to prevent duplications in the dataset. It's disrespectful, and we're sorry about the necessity.
