Amy Brogdon Anderson 3 of 3
Age :43
Gender :Female
Race : White
Date : 12/14/2022
Location : 1003 US-90
City : Bay St. Louis
County : Hancock
State : Mississippi
Agency : Bay St. Louis PD
Officer(s) : Branden Estorffe, Steven Robin
Cause of Death : Gunshot
Event : Suicide during mental health crisis call
OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
Amy Brogdon Anderson was a local veterinarian who on December 14, 2022 called police and told them she was being followed and asked for help. Police evidently did not take this claim seriously and voiced concern about her minor daughter who was with her, pressuring her. She was threatened with Child Protective Services. Coming under intense scrutiny and accusations by police instead of receiving the help she had asked for, she tried to drive away from them. She shot at police, killing both officers. One officer had fired back. She was later found dead in her car from what is believed to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Her child had been with her through the murders of 2 officers and apparently also her own suicide. She had already been in an agitated frightened state and belief has been voiced that she was triggered into desperate action when police threatened to take her child by force via CPS which triggered the catastrophic cascade of events by escalating her via police.

Officers responded to a call making various allegations from juveniles pointing guns at cars to shoplifting.

On video, officer Kenneth Nassar is seen driving up to the Dollar General parking lot. A juvenile is seen running near the entrance of Dollar General. Officer Nassar is seen getting out of his car and shooting at the boy immediately, then screaming at the other teens. McMillan is seen bleeding heavily on the ground for the entire 15-minute video without anyone checking his vital signs or making any efforts to help him. The video before the shooting does not show him as “refusing to comply” or pointing any guns at anyone, only running away for a brief few seconds before being killed instantly. McMillan’s mother showed up screaming and crying that she wanted to see her son and was arrested. Officer Nassar was cleared by a grand jury for the killing of the boy.

County : Rankin
State : Mississippi
Agency : Rankin County Sheriff's Office

Event : Killed by police during alleged burglary
OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
On July 26, 2021, around 8 p.m., Rankin County deputies responded to a call regarding burglary and vandalism. They spotted Damien Montrell Cameron exiting the woods. Police escalated a chase, apprehended Cameron. Police allege that he resisted. Police handcuffed him and placed him in the back of a police cruiser and when they returned an unspecified length of time later, they claim to have found him dead in handcuffs in the cruiser. This official police narrative is not collaborated by any bodycam or other evidence. While police omitted mention of injuries, photos submitted by his mother of him comatose in the hospital after the police assault shows significant injuries to his head and face. In addition, the sheriff’s office admitted that deputies handcuffed and locked him in a cruiser for an unspecified length of time prior to finding him dead in the vehicle. Temperatures were recorded at 98 degrees Fahrenheit in Braxton, MS on the day he was found dead in the locked cruiser. It is unknown whether and what types of injuries he may have had during arrest when police obliquely stated he had “resisted” and was overpowered by an unknown number of deputies. His mother is very outspoken and states that he was murdered by police.
.
Of note, the Rankin County Sheriff’s Office responsible for this fatal arrest has been under DOJ supervision as the “Goon Squad” of a number of severely racist officers terrorized and killed black residents. It is unknown whether the death of Damien Montrell Cameron was ever examined by the DOJ.
