- The officers agreed to a plea deal requiring additional training and participation in a 25-minute video on stopping excessive force after prosecutors initially charged seven officers.
- Glass, 22, was in a mental health crisis when he called 911 and became involved in a standoff where former deputy Andrew Buen fatally shot him five times.
