Where are the bullet entry points on his body again?

Entry wounded were on the front of the body in the forearms and head, IIRC, with the wounds being consistent with him rushing Wilson at the time.

Mostly, if not all, the front of his body, which obviously suggests he was not fleeing.

So that gets us out of Garner. Then the question becomes whether hte shooting was justified at the time the shots were fired. Was he coming at Wilson? From how far away? Should Wilson really have thought Brown posed a risk of serious bodiliy injury or death to him if he had only "stumbled" toward him, as some have said.

None of us can really know. I am just trying to predict based on the reported witness statements (not under oath, I note).

Who knows. These folks may have testified differently under oath.
