Maryland Attorney General Declines Charges in Death of Man After Release From Police Custody in Montgomery County
In Silver Spring, in Montgomery County, Maryland, a man was taken to a hospital after a police-involved incident on December 15, 2025, and died on December 22, 2025. Maryland Attorney General Anthony G. Brown announced on November 13 that he has decided not to seek charges against the officers involved.
The Attorney General's office said that on December 15 at about 8:00 p.m., Montgomery County 911 received a call reporting a man experiencing a mental health crisis at an apartment complex in Silver Spring, and the caller requested an ambulance. Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service responded, but the man refused treatment and ran away. Shortly afterward, 911 received a second call from the same caller reporting that he had returned and was still in crisis, and requesting police assistance.
At about 8:30 p.m., Montgomery County Police Department Officers Kimora Maier, Maxie Weisz and Keven Argueta arrived at the apartment complex and were directed to the man by his friend. Based on the reports they received and their observations of him pacing near the lobby elevators, the officers initiated an Emergency Evaluation Petition to take him to the hospital.
When the officers attempted to detain him, a physical struggle ensued and they were unable to fully handcuff him as he resisted. During the struggle he fell backwards onto a nearby chair, and as they waited for backup, the officers on scene physically restrained him on the chair for approximately four minutes, during which he complained that he could not breathe. Backup Officers Rebecca Davis, Rachel Hopko, Kyle Conley and Colin Staszewski assisted in removing him from the chair and securing him in handcuffs, and officers kept him in a recovery position while waiting for fire and rescue personnel. No officers were injured. The man was taken to the hospital, where he remained hospitalized, and died on December 22. The Attorney General's release identified him as Jamal Thompson.
The Attorney General's Independent Investigations Division began investigating on December 22, 2025, and concluded its investigation on November 6, 2026. After evaluating all the available evidence, the office determined that the officers did not commit a crime under Maryland law and declined to prosecute them, setting out its detailed investigative findings and legal analysis in a declination report.
