The woman who was shown on several TV news programs being shot to death by sheriff’s deputies on a Kern County road was identified Thursday as a Granada Hills resident who had threatened to kill herself in February.
Suzannah Casas Cody, 25, was killed Wednesday on California 119, a two-lane highway in Bakersfield, after she pointed a pistol at deputies who had surrounded her van after a high-speed chase, said Kern County Sheriff’s Cmdr. Don Youngblood.
Cody is survived by her husband, William, an MTA transit police officer.
