https://photographyisnotacrime.com/2015/10/missouri-cops-claim-man-shot-himself-witnesses-claim-cops-shot-him/Police in St. Louis say they chased an 18-year-old man down a street until he stopped, placed a gun against his face and shot himself dead.
But witnesses say police shot the man, who has been identified as Amonderez Green, only to later claim he had shot himself.
And although several people were recording, there does not appear to be a video of the actual shooting.
However, one video captures audio of the mans mother exclaiming, dont shoot my baby, following by a single gunshot.

have possibly caught this somehow... but then again, people should be able to walk around freely without their every movement being recorded. The cognitive dissonance is killing me!!

I have even posted links to a site where citizens can but hidden cams for their cars! They have everything from plain dash cams, to rear-view mirrors and dome lights with cameras hidden in them!
My mind can rest now!
