Wow.
Sternum, flattened tip, soft tissue and logged in vertebrae is the best I can come up with. If the bullet was misshaped enough as it passed through the sternum it would be slowed, done a greater amount of damage to the internal organs. The heart is a thick muscle, especially on a young man. Then would have logged in the vertebrae which is a fairly stout bone. That is incredible a nine millimeter at close range wouldn't have an exit wound, UNLESS, it wasn't all that close.
It is somewhat a hopeful sign the police were trying to carry out the law. I sincerely believe the new laws in Florida are the problem. Cities don't want to be sued. They would defer to the state officials if they were told there were no grounds.
The tape shows several police officers in control of their circumstances and I am not surprised it has a more relaxed appearance. Whether or not any of the clothing evidence was compromised is not for me to say. They didn't take the killing lightly. I wonder if there was any kind of effort to keep him alive at the scene.
I am sure the more extensive investigation will reveal what happened and what is completely wrong here. I also believe if the community did nothing there would still be nothing done.
