At Rest

Deadly force
White was apprehended for fighting and for possession of illegal drugs. Transported to the parish sheriff's office, he refused to exit the other. According to officers and a report from the State Police, while handcuffed White produced a pistol and fatally shot himself in the back. An autopsy from the parish coroner's office released in August 2014 contradicts the initial report and describes White's gunshot wound as a chest wound. Only the first page of the autopsy report was released to the public.
This record exists so that Victor White III, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
