Independent autopsy raises questions about Mississippi baby’s police shooting

TL;DR
An independent autopsy commissioned by the family of 1-year-old Kohen Wiley challenges the Mississippi police narrative of a Walmart parking-lot shooting, suggesting the child was shot through the chest and that the car did not move toward officers as described. The family and their attorney call for body-camera and surveillance footage release and accountability, while investigations by the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation continue. The case has intensified debates on policing and civil rights in the aftermath of the incident.
