County : Rankin

State : Mississippi

Agency : Jackson Police Department

Officer(s) : Not Disclosed

Cause of Death : Vehicle

Event : Driver killed by police chase crash

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

Tina Carter Sawyer, a 35-year-old Black woman, was involved in a crash after reportedly being chased by Jackson police. Police escalated the chase to speeds of at least 80 mph, leading to the fatal crash. Her vehicle crashed into a tree and caught fire, resulting in severe destruction and her death. Police officers, including reportedly the police chief himself, drove past the crash scene without rendering aid as Sawyer died. The internal self-investigation remains ongoing, with no confirmation on whether the police were involved in the chase. Mississippi police policy requires officers to render aid at crash scenes.
.
The investigation into Tina Carter Sawyer's crash is being handled by Jackson Police Department's Internal Affairs Division. Additionally, the case is set to be reviewed by the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation (MBI), with findings ultimately forwarded to the Mississippi Attorney General's Office. This indicates both internal and external oversight to examine the officers' involvement and their failure to render aid at the scene of the crash​.

County : Clark

State : Nevada

Agency : Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department

Officer(s) : Alexander Bookman

Cause of Death : Gunshot

Event : Killed by police during home invasion call

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

Brandon Durham, a 43-year-old father, was shot and killed by Las Vegas Metropolitan Police on November 12, 2024, after calling 911 to report a violent home invasion. Durham was inside his home with his 15-year-old daughter when he made the emergency call around 12:40 a.m. He told dispatchers that two individuals were shooting at and attempting to break into his home. He locked himself in a bathroom to protect his daughter.
.
Officers, including Alexander Bookman, responded to the scene. Upon arriving, they observed damage to the house and vehicles, as well as loud noises coming from inside. Bookman, the officer who later shot Durham, entered the home and saw Durham and one of the intruders, Alejandra Boudreaux, struggling with a knife. Bookman ordered them to drop the weapon. A second later, he fired his gun, striking both Durham and Boudreaux. Bookman fired several more shots at Durham as he lay on the floor. Durham was pronounced dead at the scene.
.
The police investigation found no firearms, only knives. Despite Durham's 911 call, the officers treated him as a threat rather than a victim, which led to significant controversy. Durham's daughter, Isabella, publicly expressed her disgust at the police handling of the situation, emphasizing that her father was the victim, not the “suspect”. She criticized how the officers treated him after he was shot.
.
Durham's partner, Rachael Gore, also voiced her frustration, suggesting that racial bias influenced the officers' actions. The family is now seeking justice, claiming the shooting was preventable and expressing concerns about police training and accountability.
