At Rest

Suicide
Officers from the U.S. Marshals Service and Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office heard a gunshot outside of a West Deptford home where they planned on serving 24-year-old William Schickel with a parole violation. At the end of the ensuing 12-hour standoff--involving West Deptford Police, Gloucester County SWAT and a mobile Tactical Command Center from the Deptford Township police department, as well as other agencies from Harrison Township and Rowan University--officers discovered Schickel dead from an apparent suicide.
This record exists so that William Z. Schickel, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
