Private autopsy claims Vonderrit Myers shot while fleeing

220. You really have very little conception of gunfight.

They are usually VERY quick, chaotic, involve a great number of shots with far fewer hits and have little room for reflection or hesitation. It's not a clinical situation, and nothing like the movies or television.

I would suggest you watch on TV or the internet some actual witness testimony and cross-examinations involving both contested and justified police shootings. I think you will be shocked.

Whether the head wound was first, last or somewhere in-between, is also not particularly relevant unless there exists other clear evidence that demonstrates that that Myers was fully incapacitated, the officer knew that he was neutralized, effectively paused, and then still rendered a killing blow (i.e., the execution). The author of the autopsy appears to skillfully avoid rendering any such conclusions.
