This photo provided by the family shows Brian Hays, center, of Muscatine, Iowa, with his two brothers. In time, Hays' wife, Sandra Jones, managed to get Hays' autopsy report from the medical examiner’s office, confirming the use force and a struggle in 2015. But an attorney told her winning a lawsuit to pry out more information was unlikely. His death didn’t even make the local news. “All I know is, something terrible happened that night,” she said. “I have pictured him laying on that cement road more times than I can tell you. I picture him there, struggling to breathe.” (Courtesy Sandra Jones via AP)
