VonDerrit Myers—alive and well

VonDerrit Myers—alive and well

Evidence continues to mount that the St. Louis Police Department is covering up what truly happened when they shot and killed VonDerrit Myers in October 2014.

His family just released the autopsy results, which show that Myers appears to have been shot from behind.



Myers’ family hired pathologist Dr. Cyril H. Wecht to conduct a study of the gun wounds from October 8, when Myers was shot and killed by an off-duty St. Louis Metropolitan Police officer. Six bullets struck Myers on the rear part of his body and the other two were “not directly frontal,” Wecht said. One shot hit him on the right side of the face, between the eyebrow and the ear. Another shot struck him on the side of his left thigh. Wecht said he did not know the order in which the wounds were inflicted. However, he said the head wound would have rendered him unconscious immediately. Wecht also investigated the deaths of John F. Kennedy, Elvis Presley and JonBenet Ramsey. One of the family’s lawyers, Jermaine Wooten, said the report’s findings – showing almost all shots from behind – contradict the story of the police officer, who has not been identified. Police representatives have said that Myers was facing the officer the entire time.

In addition to these troubling autopsy results, several other factors continue to point to something extremely peculiar in this case. They include the fact that Myers' DNA was not on the gun police claimed to find; eyewitnesses and other geo-locating evidence contradict the entire police narrative of chasing Myers; and an earlier video taken minutes before he was killed appears to show Myers completely unarmed.

Finally, the partner of the man who shot and killed Myers appears to be caught in a scandal himself. A jury believes he also planted a gun on a young black man in St. Louis, and attempted to frame him for something he didn't do.
