Police told family/hospital the wound was self inflicted per interview with the family.

Police lie about circumstances? I don’t need to see anymore, they are guilty. Now goal should be get maximum punishment. Hopefully there is an aggressive prosecutor.

See, and if she threw a pot of boiling water at them, they could claim self-defense and just lie about the timing/sequence of events. The fact they're claiming self-inflicted just makes the whole pot affair even less relevant to me.

There are some military people with garbage like this, so I really don't know what it means, but I wouldn't think any agency would hire this.

It's just random skin art, unless someone presents evidence to the contrary I'll just assume it's testosterone print and little more.

He's enough of a piece of shit on his own, we don't need to go down the route of shaming ink.

A thought: Body cams are useless in shootings. The arms block a lot of the video. I think helmet cams would be a better idea. But then police would need to constantly wear helmets.

Replace the spike with a cam mount?
Silly boy, that is a cam mount.

I feel like endoscopes would be more useful, seeing how full of shit cops end up being about, every, single, situation.

I worked directly with two of these goofs. Both were bad JuJu from the git-go. Previous histories of known problems. No idea why they got hired. Both caused repeated problems.

If this is true, this is exactly the reason people hate and fear and don't respect the police. It's true you can't always get great individual workers in any industry, but time and time again the departments the shitheads work for stand up for them until they are caught. And likely nothing happens to the whole lying department.

I've said this before.

Every citizen needs a camera on their chest pointing outwards at what they see, constantly uploading to a cloud that is easily accessible by the person wearing the camera and pre-approved others.

Who will watch the watchers? How about everyone.

"She showed super human strength. So much that she managed to shoot herself in the face 3 times before finally stopping."

They're not just assholes, they're fucking stupid as well.

How is it self defence if they shoot her after she's thrown it? It's not like she's going to fill another one, put that on the hob, wait 5 minutes till it's boiling again then throw it while they wait patiently.

Is this really necessary to make a separate news article? It's a formality in the process, but nothing newsworthy.

Sonya Massey, woman killed in home by police, died by homicide with gunshot to head, autopsy shows

ABC|34 minutes ago
Sonya Massey, the Illinois woman fatally shot by a deputy while responding to her 911 call, died by homicide due to a gunshot wound to her head, according to an autopsy report released Friday by the Sangamon County coroner. Though the autopsy report did not state the manner of death, Sangamon County Coroner Jim Allmon confirmed it was homicide.

From the shooter's body cam it appears that he shoots her as she throwing it. She pops back up, her hands go to the pot, and the water and pot end up across the kitchen at the shooter's feet as he fires. His arm blocks seeing anything else.

I'm not defending the cop here. He had no reason to advance on her like that. He was negligent for sending a mentally disturbed woman into the kitchen. He was an asshole from the getgo. He caused this. But his attorney will destroy a 1st degree murder charge.

It should be 2nd degree or manslaughter.
