Shot Trying to Escape
It's become a joke of totalitarian states that prisoners killed by the state are all "shot trying to escape." I can't get that phrase out of my head when I read this
A state crime lab report claims Chavis Carter, the man shot to death while handcuffed in the back of a Jonesboro, Arkansas police cruiser, committed suicide.
The left-handed Carter, the report claims, retrieved a 380-caliber Cobra semi-automatic, which he had managed to conceal from officers during two searches, and used his right hand to shoot himself in the head.
