At Rest

Deadly force
The Putnam County Sheriff's Office responded to calls following reports of shots fired. When deputies arrived on scene, Mahoney was on his back porch with a handgun. Negotiators worked with Mahoney for an hour in an attempt to get him to put the gun down. Mahoney allegedly refused and deputies deployed a taser, but it was not effective. Mahoney then fired his gun hitting a deputy in the arm. Deputies returned fire, striking Mahoney who was transported to the hospital. He died on the way.
This record exists so that Timothy Mahoney, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
