Former child star Mark Everett has been identified by authorities as the man at the center of a deadly police standoff in a Los Angeles suburb on December 23, 2008.
Investigators say Everett, 39, took his 7-year-old son, Benjamin, on the run after the 2004 murder of the child's mother -- Everett's ex-girlfriend.
Now, the FBI tells AMW that Everett was killed when police attempted to rescue Benjamin and take the fugitive father into custody.
