There is science to prove that any common person can not remember every detail of intense incidents.

Your mind will focus more on certain parts rather than seeing the whole picture due to what's occurring.

I know which brings me back to my point. Who benefits by the officer not writing an accurate report?

In most jurisdictions officers are required to take at least 48 hrs before writing their reports when use of force is used for this very reason. This is in the DOJ recommended guidelines for use of force. This gives the officer time to come down from the emotional\physical stress of the event.
