If you’re tuning in late, the cops say Tortuguita shot first, but a test shows his gun hadn’t been fired, and his autopsy shows his hands were up when cops opened fire.

That dude was straight-up murdered by cops.

      From gun shots, likely not anywhere near enough damage to his arms if unless they were up. You can also test him residue which he didn’t have.

      This is a guess, but if your arms are up and you are shot, your torso is stretched so the gunshot would would leave a tunnel that is more round when the body has it’s arms raised, and more closed when they are down.
