The funeral unfolded Thursday for Stephon Clark, the latest black man killed at the hands of police whose death has sparked protests and drawn national attention. Police fatally shot Clark in his grandparents' backyard on March 18 after confusing his cellphone for a gun. Days of demonstrations have followed, shutting down a city meeting and drawing support from its NBA team.

Meanwhile, in Louisiana, the state attorney general announced no charges will result from the police killing of Alton Sterling, who was fatally shot while selling CDs outside a Baton Rouge store in 2016.

Here's a look at what happened after the deaths of other black men after police-interactions in high-profile cases nationwide, from Tamir Rice to today.

Terence Crutcher (Sept. 16, 2016, in Tulsa)
Betty Shelby, a white Tulsa police offer, called the unarmed Crutcher a "bad dude" before fatally shooting him with his hands up as he stood near his vehicle in a street.

The conclusion: A jury acquitted her of first-degree manslaughter in 2017, and Shelby later resigned from the department.
