Special task force officers saw Bell in what they felt was a drug transaction and they escalated a chase that ended at Division Street and Harlan Avenue when she crashed into an overpass and died. She had been a mother of three. Police allege they found half a gram of fentanyl in her possession after her death. Video of the event cannot be found and is unlikely to have been released as this was an undercover drug sting. Considering the involvement of a special drug task force, it is further questioned whether she was hunted by a marked cruiser or a civilian unmarked detective car and whether she knew who was chasing her.

Ganado PD pulled over a car at a U.S. 59 exit on the west side of Louise. Manuel Saldana Jr exited his vehicle, provided his drivers’ license and told police he had a felony record.He also told police he had a gun in the car. He was cooperative and forthcoming. Police nevertheless tried to handcuff him and they allege that in the process, they discovered a gun in the vehicle, apparently the gun he had told them about. Under police attack despite cooperating, Saldana ran back to his car and sped off. Police took up chase and found the car had crashed and rolled, ejecting Saldana. Neither Ganado PD nor Texas DPS provided BWC or dashcam footage. It is unknown what went wrong during a stop with a cooperative driver but things apparently changed when he truthfully told him about his record and a gun that was in the car and not on his person.

Dexter Wade had set out on foot through the Mississippi woods with a friend on March 5, 2023 and never returned home. His family looked for him desperately, searched the woods and made reports with the police who claimed no knowledge of what happened to him. Seven months later, his mother found out that he had been hit and killed by a police car while crossing a highway less than an hour after last being seen. Police reportedly knew his identity throughout and also knew the name and contact information of his mother but instead of contacting family, police left his body in the morgue for months and finally quietly buried him in the jail’s penal farm without notifying family.

His mother Betterston Wade said their family was tragically familiar with Jackson Police since they murdered her 62-year-old brother George Robinson (court case linked below). The officer was convicted of manslaughter for brutally slamming the elderly man to the floor and killing him. The officer was convicted in 2022 and is currently appealing the decision. The case erupted into race controversy between the black District Attorney and the white Attorney General who is known for protecting the status quo.

When Dexter Wade first disappeared, his grandmother urged his mother not to call the police because grandma was very distrust ful of Jackson Police. The mother hoped that he would be found and reported him missing with the police. By then, police had his body in the morgue and knew his identity but did not inform his family. The family asked everyone who knew Dexter. His children canvassed the neighborhood, asking who may have seen him. For months, the family called Jackson PD and was told that police knew nothing every time.

Jackson PD is yet to explain why they handled this case this way. There is no dashcam or bodycam footage and the entire story of him having been run over by police on the I-55 rests upon the credibility of police in this case. Jackson PD had targeted the family before when Dexter’s uncle was killed. Now they strangely withheld all information about the death of Dexter Wade from the family for 7 months while they buried him without an autopsy or family knowledge or consent, having known his identity all along.

Police finally disclosed that allegedly, an off-duty police corporal had struck and killed Dexter Wade with a police SUV. The officer was not DUI-tested and was not charged or ticketed for the fatal accident. Police tested him for drugs and found some meth and prescription drugs in his system. He had a prescription bottle in his pocket that had been legally prescribed to him.

The coroner claims that he obtained the name and number of Wade’s mother and left her a voicemail. The mother has no record of such a phone call. No further efforts were made to notify the family. The family posted all over Facebook, hoping to find him. Meanwhile, the coroner confirmed in his own notes that “no family or next of kin has been notified yet” and police continued stonewalling. The coroner confirmed that he had been aware for a number of weeks that the family had not been notified. Meanwhile, the family was posting messages to help find him throughout the neighborhood, the police department and social media. One day after the last call by his mother to police, Jackson PD quietly buried him.

His mother now questions whether the strange concealed death of her son by police could have something to do with the death of her brother. “Maybe it was a vendetta. Maybe they buried my son to get back at me,” she wonders. She also says that the timeline police gave is not possible. The location where he was allegedly run over and killed was a longer walk from the house than he could have mastered on foot by the time police logged the accident into the system. The mother openly questions whether the police narrative is true at all or not. If it was an accident in that location since nothing is certain except some kind of police coverup within Jackson PD.

A Harnett County Sheriff's deputy caused a two-vehicle crash Friday afternoon that left two people dead and the officer injured when his vehicle hit a third-party motorist’s car.
Just after 2 p.m. at NC Highway 210 and Ray Road in Spring Lake on 03/03/2023, Harnett deputy Kevin LeTarte crashed into a pickup truck for unclear reasons, killing both Brian and Patricia Finch. The deputy was indicted for manslaughter. It is unknown whether Officer LeTarte had been DUI-tested.
