We’ve heard plenty of cases of someone being shot by the cops followed by stories that they were trying to surrender with their hands up. Are there any pictures that would settle the matter one way or the other?

The eyewitnesses in the Fergusen case were what proved the claim of hands up don’t shoot to be true. That and forensic evidence.

There is no reason to think the same would not be true here.

There are a variety of details. All can be checked for accuracy, as can the shots in the body.

No - the Feds can't afford video cameras. Or drones. Or armored SUVs. Or Cool Tactical Gear. Or HK MP5 submachine guns.

Oh, wait...
