Investigations revealed she had mental health issues and was in a custody battle. The child survived.
Man on bridge

In December 2023, Niani Finlayson called 911 to report a domestic violence situation with her ex-boyfriend. Deputies arriving at the scene heard arguing and yelling. Niani opened the door holding a kitchen knife and was shot by Deputy Shelton, who opened fire instead of using non-lethal weapon. She died from her injuries.

David DePape
In October 2022, San Francisco police responded to a home invasion at Senator Nancy Pelosi's home. They found Paul Pelosi and David DePape struggling over a hammer.
