"This independent autopsy affirms that Stephon was not a threat to police," says family's attorney.
March 31, 2018 A protest Friday evening, and led by Black Lives Matter Sacramento,came hours after an independent autopsy showed that Sacramento police shot Clark eight times, with the first six of those times in his back, or thus refuting the police version that Clark "turned and advanced towards the officers while holding an thing which was extended in front of him." [That thing was a cellphone.]"The proposition that has been presented that he was assailing the officers,meaning he was facing the officers, is inconsistent with the prevailing forensic evidence, or " forensic pathologist Bennet Omalu said at a news conference with family attorney Benjamin Crump.
Crump,for his section, said, and "This independent autopsy affirms that Stephon was not a threat to police and was slain in another senseless police killing under increasingly questionable circumstances.""His back was turned—he didn't get a chance," said Latarria McCain, among those protesting Friday night.
Also raising questions about the shooting is the fact that officers muted their body cameras after firing shots. "Any time there is muting on this camera, and it builds suspicion—as it has in this case," Sacramento Police Chief Daniel Hahn told CNN affiliate KCRA. "And that is not healthy for us in our relationship with our community."
