"About 6 minutes after the shooting, after backup arrives, an officer can be heard telling another officer, “hey mute.”
Sound then cuts out as cops apparently turn off their microphones"

"Officers muted body cameras in Stephon Clark shooting. Why?"
Because after shooting #StephonClark 20 times, handcuffing his dying body and searching his backyard in vain for 7 minutes, the police realized they killed an unarmed man.

#StephonClark was shot eight times, mostly in his back, according to autopsy requested by his family.
So how did police legitimately fear for their lives?

Autopsy requested by #StephonClark's family:
"He received seven gunshot wounds from his back .. All seven of these bullets could have been fatal on their own."
"He was not facing the officers” when he was killed."
This was murder.

"The autopsy concluded that #StephonClark’s death was not instantaneous, taking an estimated 3 to 10 minutes, raising questions about why he was not given more immediate medical care after the shooting."

It's not about disobeying orders.
It's not about not showing your hands.
It's not about advancing towards the officers.
It's not about resisting arrest.
It's about race. #StephonClark
