Officer(s) :Joshua Kemlage, Bryan Sweeney, Trooper Christopher Miller

Event : Killed by police during domestic disturbance call
OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
Jamie Feith was involved in some sort of domestic dispute for which police were sent. Police claimed that she held a pocket knife and attempted to attack them. Police used a taser and then shot and killed her. She had been a mother of 3.
Police released a body cam video in which she is seen holding something small in her hands that she is apparently trying to open which was identified as a pocket knife. The screenshots from the body cam do not suggest that she is any risk to police. While police attacked her with tasers and multiple deliberately lethal gunshots, her domestic partner is heard, begging police not to kill her who did so despite this. After police had fired several shots into her center mass at close range, he is heard yelling at the police not to kill him also. From the family’s standpoint, this killing should have been entirely avoidable. No officers were charged, and all shooter officers were cleared quickly.
