On March 24th, 2026, Leon County Sheriff’s Officers arrived at a call for medical assistance. Officers then encountered Keith Lee, who based upon the limited information released by LCSO was likely going through a mental health crisis. Rather than deescalate or seek the help of a mental health professional, the interaction ended when LCSO tased Keith Lee and took him into custody. Shortly after he was tased, Lee became unresponsive and later died. In the week since, LCSO has released no additional details on his death. This lack of transparency is intentional. Death’s in custody are increasingly common with LCSO, and the people demand answers! LCSO needs to release the body cam footage and all details of their investigation!
