What happened
The Washington Post's Fatal Force index records Jamie Croom's death in a Baton Rouge police shooting on March 10, 2015. A date and place are not enough to establish the sequence of events leading to a person's death, and this pass did not locate a sufficiently strong case-specific account to do so. In particular, no independently verified witness narrative, comprehensive investigative finding or final legal outcome was established. Such gaps should not be bridged with assumptions based on the encounter's category in a national database. Further reporting should seek Baton Rouge and East Baton Rouge Parish records, contemporaneous news accounts and the perspective of family members.
Investigation & findings
No independently verified final officer prosecution or civil outcome located.
