No one disputes that Army National Guard veteran Brian Babb was a man in crisis. 

But his family and friends dispute the notion that Babb's death at the hands of Eugene Police was the only resolution to his crisis.

His family is determined to prevent future such incidents from taking place. 

Members of the family will join us to talk about their thinking.
