I don’t think the pathologist had any political motive. Pathologists at autopsies are attempting to find out the ultimate cause of death and any contributing factors. It appears the self-inflicted shot was what killed him, and the other injuries were not severe enough to have contributed to his death. The headline is accurate.

I bet this will take a load off Assam’s mind. She did what she had to in the circumstances, but ultimately she was not responsible for his death.

The autopsy is just clinically stating that, after absorbing maybe 6 hits from the guard, the shooter was not technically dead yet, as he was still standing, then the self-inflicted shotgun wound ensured death.

Still, I cannot forgive the MSM for deliberately trying to minimize the hero's role, and for digging up dirt on her reputation and printing it at this time.

I can see the first statement, the proximate cause of his death was a round he fired, but where did you get the second? Who knows what would have happened had he not shot himself? He was holed multiple times and down. There were others, his victims, with higher priority for medical treatment. He might have bleed to death, his heart might have failed, any number of things could have happened, if he hadn't (probably literally) blow his brains out.

Shotgun wound? I thought he had an "Assault Rifle"? The newsies all assured us he did. Well no mater it was probably an evil black (semi) automatic "assault shotgun", with a "high capacity ammunition feeding device".
