FIRST LOOK AT BODY CAMERA VIDEO.
WE HAVE TEAM COVERAGE.
FELIX CORTEZ IS LIVE FROM SANTA
CRUZ.
>> WE KNOW THE RELATION BETWEEN
THE TWO MEN AND WE NOW KNOW THE
NAME OF THE DEPUTY WHO FIRED THE
FATAL SHOT.
IT WAS ALL CAUGHT ON BODY CAM
VIDEO, A VIOLENT OUTBURST
ACCORDING TO THE SHERIFF'S
FUELED BY LSD.
>> THE SHOT THAT KILLED 15 EUROS
LUKE SMITH WAS ABLE IT TO THE
CHEST FIRED BY NINE YEAR --
15-YEAR-OLD LUKE SMITH WAS A
BULLET TO THE CHEST FIRED BY A
NINE-YEAR VETERAN WHO HAS BEEN

DON'T COME ANY FURTHER.
LUCAS, WE NEED YOU TO STOP.
TASER.
>> MONDAY AFTERNOON, THE SHERIFF
RELEASED THE BODY CAM VIDEO OF
THE DEALY CONFRONTATION.
DURING THE STRETCH, DEPUTIES ARE
HEARD, HE AND REPEATEDLY TRYING
TO GET THE TEENAGER TO DROP THE
KNIFE.
TASERS WERE USED, TO NO EFFECT.
K9 WAS DEPLOYED.

CLICKS WE HAD EXHAUSTED EVERY
TOOL --
>> WE HAD EXHAUSTED EVERY TOOL
IN OUR TOOLBELT.
>> HE SAID LUKE'S VIOLENT
OUTBURST WAS FUELED BY A TOXIC
DOSE OF LSD.
LUKE, IN A VIOLENT RAGE, TURNED
AGAINST A FRIEND WHO TOOK THE
DRUG WITH HIM, THEN STABBED HIS
FATHER AND HIS UNCLE.
>> WE BELIEVE HE WAS ACTING OUT
BECAUSE OF HIS ADVERSE REACTION
TO THE LSD HE TOOK.
IN THAT STATE OF MIND, HE WAS
VERY DANGEROUS.
HE WAS A DANGER TO NEIGHBORS,
EMERGENCY SERVICES, AND FIRST
RESPONDERS.
>> THE SHERIFF SAID THE FOUR
PEOPLE WHO SOLD THE DRUG TO LUKE
HAVE BEEN ARRESTED AND COULD BE
FACING MURDER CHARGES.
>> I DON'T KNOW IF FELONY MURDER
COMES INTO PLAY ON THIS, BUT
THAT IS A DISCUSSION WE WILL
HAVE WITH THE DISTRICT
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

OFFICE THAT IS STILL IN CHARGE
OF INVESTIGATING THE SHOOTING.
TODAY, THE SHERIFF SAID HE WILL
CONVENE A SPECIAL SERIOUS
INCIDENT REVIEW BOARD THAT WILL
HAVE THE TASK OF REVIEWING THIS
INCIDENT, LOOKING AT THE POLICE
TACTICS THAT WERE DEPLOYED AND
WHETHER OTHER METHODS COULD HAVE
OR SHOULD HAVE BEEN USED.
>> THANK YOU.
A BIG PART OF THIS STORY IS THE
LSD, WHICH SHERIFF HART SAYS
LUKE SMITH WAS ON WHEN THIS ALL

>> ALLEGATIONS WERE WANTING --
RUNNING RAMPANT ON THE INTERNET
THAT LUKE WAS UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF LSD.
THE PAPAL -- THE PEOPLE WHO
SUPPORTED HAVE ALSO BEEN
ARRESTED.
>> THIS IS NOT SOMETHING HE
WOULD HAVE DONE.
I BELIEVE HE WAS ON SOMETHING
WHEN THIS HAPPENED.
>> VOICING WHAT FOLKS ON SOCIAL
MEDIA WERE SAYING ALL ALONG.
15-YEAR-OLD LUKE SMITH WAS NOT
CAPABLE OF THIS KIND OF
VIOLENCE.
>> LSD IS A TOUGH THING BECAUSE
IT'S HARD TO DIFFERENTIATE
BETWEEN REALITY AND NOT.
>> THE BODY CAMERA VIDEO SHOWS
DEPUTIES TRYING TO TALK LUKE
INTO BEING COOPERATIVE BEFORE HE
WAS FATALLY SHOT.
AT A NEWS CONFERENCE, THE
SHERIFF SAID LUKE WAS UNDER THE

VERY DANGEROUS.
HE WAS A DANGER TO NEIGHBORS,
EMERGENCY SERVICE PERSONNEL, AND
FIRST RESPONDERS.
>> INVESTIGATORS ARRESTED FOR
PEOPLE FOR DEALING LSD.
THE DEALER HIMSELF WAS FOUND
UNCONSCIOUS FROM AN OVERDOSE.
>> IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT FOR
THE DRUG TREATMENT COMMUNITY AND
LAW-ENFORCEMENT TO KEEP UP WITH

WE WANT SHOULDER AND IN OUR
COMMUNITY TO UNDERSTAND THAT A
HORRIBLE RESULT CAN OCCUR --
CHILDREN IN OUR COMMUNITY TO

DRUGS ARE USED.
>> SCHOOLS HAVE CRISIS SUPPORT
