Video Released In Bodega Bay Deputy-Involved Shooting - Man Shot After LSD-Fueled Rampage

Bodega Bay, CA - The Sonoma County Sheriff's Office released a video Tuesday of the events that led up to a deputy-involved shooting July 4 in Bodega Bay. The video includes audio from the 911 call as well as body-worn camera footage in the shooting of Betai Koffi, 32, of San Francisco. The sheriff's office has said Koffi was reportedly using LSD and assaulted several people, including friends whom he rented a home with in Bodega Harbor for the Fourth of July holiday. Koffi was hospitalized in critical condition immediately following the shooting. While under medical care at Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital, Koffi was arraigned July 11 on suspicion of multiple felonies, according to the sheriff's office. The 32-year-old San Francisco man has been charged with attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon and other counts for an alleged LSD-fueled rampage on July 4th in Bodega Bay. Sonoma County authorities said Betai Koffi was charged in a hearing held in Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital. Koffi is recovering from wounds suffered when deputies shot him to halt his violent rampage. The 10-count felony complaint accuses the San Francisco man of attacking a neighborhood security guard with a metal stake, stealing the guard's pickup and then trying to run down four people with the truck. Two women and the security guard were treated for injuries. Koffi was renting a house with five friends who told the sheriff's office that Koffi took four doses of LSD between noon and 4 or 5 p.m. that day. Koffi's attorney, Steve Gallenson, said he expects his client to be in rehabilitation for months. Koffi, 32, came out of a medically-induced coma at Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital. "Parts of a bullet in his brain were removed and he will be in a hospital and have rehabilitation for months. The right side of his brain was damaged and he's paralyzed on his left side," Gallenson said. Koffi does not have a criminal record, Gallenson said. "He's a mathematical genius. He went to Stanford University, he taught himself to play classical piano and he's an extremely bright young man. It's a sad situation," Gallenson said. Koffi's bail is set at $2.3 million and visitation by his family may be limited because a deputy will be guarding Koffi at the hospital, Gallenson said.
