Shot by officers who hadn’t completed mandatory mental health training, Jesse—a 43-year-old with treatment-resistant schizophrenia—wasn’t hospitalized despite escalating risks. His mother, Judy, passionately questions witnesses and pushes for systemic change. One officer admits he didn’t know Jesse could be dangerous, while another, medically discharged, apologized to Jesse’s family. Advocates now call for a UK-style model: health workers, not police, to respond to non-criminal mental health crises. Jesse’s death isn’t just a tragedy—it’s a call to action.
