Autopsy: Man Killed By Police Not Shot In Back

Posted: 10:08 am PST November 11, 2010

OAKLAND, Calif. -- An independent autopsy has revealed that an unarmed man whom police shot and killed during a chase suffered multiple gunshot wounds -- all to the front of his body. The autopsy by the Alameda County Coroner's Office shows 37-year-old Derrick Jones of Oakland was not shot in the back -- as had been rumored by family and friends.

Police say two officers shot and killed Jones late Monday after he fled on foot and appeared to be reaching toward his waistband. Officers were responding to reports of a domestic dispute between Jones and a woman.

Civil rights attorney John Burris says he has interviewed at least one witness to the shooting who disputes the police allegations that Jones was reaching for his waistband.

back, front side to side..its an unarmed man.

all bad either way, but shot in the back is worse i think, he was running away. all the cops got to do is say in the moment they lost memory and though he was pulling for something.

I got kicked out of the Raider game a couple weeks back by OPD and I couldn't help but think how uncapable these guys were in dealing with the people that reside in Oakland. I told them as much and they didn't like it.lol. But real talk, until the people policing communities like Oakland have an actual connection to those communities, these kind of incidents will occur. They were just scary to begin with and over reacted. There should be some consequences for discharging your service weapon when it is unnecessary. Especially when it results in the death of a man.

A similar case is going on here in Seattle, where an officer shot and killed a known (and beloved by some) homeless wood-carver. Turns out the wood carver's knife wasn't even OPEN and that he was turned to the side when he got shot 3 times by the pig. They ruled the murder to be unjustified. Preliminary hearings begin the 23rd.

Its crazy the cops are killing folks and getting away with it, but god forbid somebody shoots a cop they are getting the chair or lethal injection.

They are not even going to get charged with a crime. All they have to say is they thought he was reaching for a weapon, which they did. But in reality, Oakland has much bigger problems within the streets themselves. Too many people losing their lives over petty occurrences, which is unnacceptable as well. Those are the things the communities need to address first and foremost.

with time served credits, that pigs remaining prison sentence will be measured by the hour.

[fillyacup]

agree..but are we as citizens able to manage with out them? even in hoods and shit there is someone who is always there to enforce the code..thats what these fucks do, only difference is they dont check themselves like those do in the streets or like its suppose to be done. the code is greatly overlooked

When you have kids killing each other in inner cities....what makes you think this type of shit will change anytime soon?

A black/latino 14 year old gets killed by someone of the same race...how come nobody is protesting for their deaths?

I hate cops....fuck'em all....

but if a community wants changes..they have to start looking within their own communities....

 

[niguardian]

these assholes are gettin away with cold blooded murder on unarmed people wtf u think theyll do to somebody whose runnin from them, that stupid muthafucka shoulda known better

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

A 911 call was made for a domestic abuse.
This moron then evades arrest and lead the police on a chase.
Then flees on foot and reaches for his waste band while faced towards the officers.

If I was an officer I would have shot him too.
