The Clark County Police Fatality Public Fact-finding Review convened on July 17, 2025, to examine the circumstances surrounding the death of Ismael Barney Castillo. The meeting focused on the details of the incident, including video evidence and crime scene analysis.

The session began with a presentation of video footage from a store located in the same parking lot where Sergeant Brosnahan encountered Castillo. The footage showed Castillo turning towards the officers and fleeing the scene. This critical moment was highlighted as part of the narrative leading to the subsequent events.

Following the video review, the discussion moved to crime scene photographs. Sergeant Brosnahan provided a walkthrough of the scene, indicating his position when he discharged his weapon. He noted that he was approximately 13 feet and 4 inches away from Castillo at the time of the first shot. The review included details about the type of ammunition used, specifically a low lethality shotgun cartridge designed to deploy a drag stabilizing bean bag.

Additionally, the meeting addressed the equipment left at the scene, including Officer Parham's low lethality shotgun and Officer Wu Sung's taser, which was found with one of its probes recovered from Castillo.

The review aimed to clarify the sequence of events and the actions taken by law enforcement during the incident. The findings from this meeting will contribute to the ongoing investigation and public understanding of the circumstances surrounding Castillo's death. Further discussions and analyses are expected as the review process continues.
