Officer Wilson is now unemployable as an officer in the immediate St Louis area. He and his family will not be able to return to their home. His financial problems have only began. The mental stress for him and his family will last forever. All this because one thoughtless person stole some cheap cigars. He will need a lot of financial support for some time. GW
I agree with most of this but 6 shots? He seems to be in very hot water.
Ever had to shoot a deer more than once?
Lets break this six shots was " over bore" bullschit dow right now
Training- shoot to stop the threat.
One round discharged in a closed space( car interior). That round was probably close enough to severely disrupt his hearing, and possibly throw his equlibrium off.
Wilson suffered a traumatic injury severe enough to cause a fractured orbital socket
He still had the "heart" to continue to attempt the arrest. Chances are his vison was skewed, and he may even have had to try and use his non dominate eye to aim with.
The injuries support the statement that Brown was charging him. Under those circumstances, including the aggitated state Brown was most likely in, coupled with the officers injuries. He likely reverted to training when the first few shots gave no indication of a hit, he fired at the head. It's also very likely he had no idea how many rounds he even fired
Bottom line. There is no set number of shots that will need to be fired to stop an attack
