An officer responding to a number of 911 calls from Giliberti's grandmother's home found the 22-year-old in the middle of a “psychotic episode," and tasered him to little effect. The officer shot Giliberti six times after he approached the officer with a kitchen knife. The county DA cleared the officer of any wrongdoing.
