According to a preliminary autopsy, Brown was shot six times including twice in the head. Dr Michael Baden, the former chief medical examiner for the City of New York, who performed the autopsy at the request of the family, said: ?In my capacity as the forensic examiner for the New York State Police, I would say, ?You?re not supposed to shoot so many times.? Right now there is too little information to forensically reconstruct the shooting.?
For some then the police have come too late to the notion that they are there to ?protect? lives. ?The law,? wrote James Baldwin, ?is meant to be my servant and not my master, still less my torturer and my murderer.? Those who call for law and order now must understand that there is no order because men with badges have been acting lawlessly.
