Chavis Carter

#102 - On July 29, 2012, two police officers from the Jonesboro, Arkansas, Police Department pulled over a vehicle containing three males. One of the passengers was 21-year-old Chavis Carter. After discovering that Chavis had a small amount of marijuana on him and he had an active warrant, the police handcuffed him and placed him in the back of the patrol car. Within minutes, Chavis was shot in the head with a stolen .38 caliber Cobra pistol. After an autopsy was performed, the forensic pathologist found multiple drugs inside his system and his case was ruled a suicide.

Even though the police searched Chavis twice, and he was handcuffed with his hands behind his back, the police believed he committed suicide. But Chavis Carter's family and supporters disagree.
