The latest Last Week Tonight where they highlight sometimes there is a coziness of coroners/medical examiners with police really makes this look even worse.
The good news is that plenty of lawyers and medical examiners will take this case and likely find the truth. That's the difference with Russia, China and quite a few other countries.
Not sure how that is the response to a post pointing out one of the many systemic faults in American policing tbh. There might be a difference in motives and with gun laws American police might even be in a unique position but from an outside perspective all this "bad apple" narrative seems pretty drawn out.
A government not acknowledging failures in training, procedure and accountability doesn't seem that much better than one that outright fosters that state in their executive branch.
The medical examiner doesn't make the call, right? They will say that the victim died by a gunshot wound to the head, but they won't rule whether it's suicide or not.
