Official Autopsy for Stephon Clark Contradicts Family's Independent Autopsy
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back in the United States, the Sacramento County Coroner's Office has
released an official autopsy for Stephon Clark, the 22-year-old
African-American man who was shot by police officers 20 times in his
grandmother's backyard in March. This autopsy says he was shot three
times in the back, which contradicts the independent autopsy carried out
by a forensic pathologist hired by Stephon Clark's family. That autopsy
said he was shot six times in the back by police.
