On November 28, 2018, 13-year-old Max Benson (October 2005—30 November 2018), an autistic boy from Davis, California, died as a result of being held in an extended prone physical restraint by staff at his now-defunct K-12 non-public school, Guiding Hands School in El Dorado County, California. While Benson was initially reported to have been 6 feet (1.8 m) tall and weigh 280 pounds (130 kg), these figures were disputed by the family, who stated that he was “8 inches shorter and 50 pounds lighter” than what the school claimed to the El Dorado County Sheriff's Office.

| - On November 28, 2018, 13-year-old Max Benson (October 2005—30 November 2018), an autistic boy from Davis, California, died as a result of being held in an extended prone physical restraint by staff at his now-defunct K-12 non-public school, Guiding Hands School in El Dorado County, California. While Benson was initially reported to have been 6 feet (1.8 m) tall and weigh 280 pounds (130 kg), these figures were disputed by the family, who stated that he was “8 inches shorter and 50 pounds lighter” than what the school claimed to the El Dorado County Sheriff's Office. During the extended physical restraint, Benson became unresponsive. According to the investigation conducted by the California Department of Education, which afterward suspended Guiding Hands School's certification, Benson was held in a prone restraint for an extended period of time, and was forced to urinate on himself and vomit. Guiding Hands staff failed to call emergency services promptly after Benson became unconscious. Benson was taken to the UC Davis Medical Center, where he subsequently died. Three staff from Guiding Hands School are facing criminal charges in Benson's death, including felony manslaughter; a civil lawsuit has also been filed against Guiding Hands and several former employees, as well as with Northern California school districts that contracted with the school.
