Ferguson, Missouri (CNN) -- An independent autopsy into the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, provides "ample" evidence to support the arrest of the police officer who shot him, family attorney Daryl Parks said Monday at a news conference.

Parks was particularly concerned about gunshots that medical examiners hired by the family indicate came from behind and above.

"Why would he be shot in the very top of his head, a 6-foot-4 man?" Parks asked. "Makes no sense."

The autopsy could support witnesses' suggestions that Brown was holding his hands up in the air, said Shawn Purcell, who assisted in the autopsy. But other scenarios are possible, said Dr. Michael Baden, who supervised the inquiry.

That’s why they asked Holder for a 3rd autopsy.

I’m curious as to the type of weapon Wilson was using. Stopping power or lack of it is important as well.

"Wound?" Which one?

The wounds on the arms in the autopsy drawing are all shown on the anterior side of the arm. That's not the side that faces front when the arms are raised.

“Rioters will only be satisfied if police officer Wilson is hanged”

The list is growing:

The officer
The Captain of the Ferguson Police
The Captain of the St. Louis County Police
The county pathologist
Gov. Nixon

A generation is being hurt because of so-called authorities saying local authorities are not trustworthy to do their jobs. And the President way overreached on State autonomy - but will never be held accountable because of the D in the Governor’s office.

Makes sense to me that he started to fall forward when the previous bullet struck him, and so the last bullet got him in the top of the head.

Nope...The rioters don’t care a whit about what happens to the officer...They are gonna riot until they are stopped with force... Many of them don’t even know this guy who was shot...They only care about looting, no matter the reason...

Your right. I would have put one right between the eyes. And I can shoot just good enough to "get-er-done".

Indirect fire. 9 mm mortars are terrifyingly deadly. /s
