Found an interesting story of a contortionist who managed to shoot herself in the mouth despite her hands having been tied behind her back.
Luckily the police investigated themsleves and ruled the death a suicide so we can rest assured that this wasn't simply another police brutality incident
The family of the deceased feels otherwise, what do our resident pardians make of this story?
https://www.cbs17.com/news/south/family-responds-after-police-say-handcuffed-woman-shot-herself-through-mouth/CHESAPEAKE, Va. (WAVY) — A 19-year-old woman whose hands were cuffed behind her back when she committed suicide during a traffic stop in Chesapeake died of a gunshot wound through the mouth, according to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
Sarah Wilson committed suicide on July 25, 2018, during a traffic stop near the intersection of Berkley Avenue and Wilson Road, according to the Chesapeake Police Department.
She was the passenger of a 1996 Lexus driven by her boyfriend, 27-year-old Holden Medlin. The couple was under the surveillance of two CPD officers — one assigned to uniform patrol, and the other to vice narcotics — when they were stopped around 4:24 p.m.
During the stop, the officers approached Wilson and Medlin separately. While one officer handcuffed Wilson with her hands behind her back, the other tried to detain Medlin, CPD Officer Leo Kosinski told 10 On Your Side in August.
Medlin resisted arrest, becoming combative and trying to flee the scene, police said. That’s when the officer who handcuffed Wilson left her outside of the car’s passenger side and went to assist in Medlin’s arrest, which involved using a Taser to subdue him, according to police.
Kosinski said in August that Wilson was handcuffed with her arms behind her back when she got the gun out of the Lexus, “contorted” her body and shot herself in the head.
