Description
A coronial inquest is investigating the death of Krista Kach, who died after a ten-hour standoff with police. The inquest focuses on whether officers actions were reasonable, police training, and the lack of body-worn cameras. Kach was seen in distress, threatening people with an axe, and later barricaded herself inside. Officers entered, tasered her, and fired a bean-bag round, causing her death. The inquest is set to continue for two weeks.
