/r/all Ryan Waller, a 22-year-old man who, despite having a bullet in his eye, endured 4 hours of interrogation by cops who thought he was lying—only to receive medical help too late.

this was one of the most messed up videos i watched. they mocked him for begging slow while they belittled him and degraded him. poor man was suffering and because of there own agenda they didnt save him.

To be fair, who the fuck expected a bullet was lodged up his head. And yeah having a bullet lodged in the brain does make you slow.

The fact that he has a bullet wound in his eye? That there is no exit wound?

the wound is all clotted up after 3 days(and wound size depends on entry angle) + the whole area is swollen + headshot is fatal most of the time + they figured the attacks happened for some time now(because of the other body)

though it's true they should have given him medical attention much earlier not identifying a 3 day old .22 headshot wound earlier is clearly not the more common sense thing to cook someone over compared to earlier medical attention

  1. The bruising Looks nothing like a bullet wound.

  2. No exit wound. Goes against your argument, implies it’s not a bullet wound

  3. Victim isn’t dead. Also implies it’s not a bullet wound

Stop speaking from hindsight

Someone who walks into a room to find a dead body and somebody wandering around spouting nonsense bleeding from an obvious face wound?

One dead from gunshot, one obviously injured and claiming to be shot… hOw CoUlD tHeY kNoW

Right and if you believed every perp that said they didn’t kill their partners because they have a physical wound on them at the time. boy have I got a bridge to sell you.

You don't have to believe them to offer medical assistance. Dull.

If you believed every cop who said they fired because they feared for their life, you would get elected to the head of the police union.

belief vs not believing isnt the issue. its the fact that he could be telling the truth. that is literally enough to put the information under scrutiny, to investigate to be 100% certain at the cost of providing a human medical aid because an innocent, confused man died. jesus christ, i really dont know why people have to have this broken down

To be fair, if you watch the video he claims multiple times that someone shot him in the head and the cop just keeps redirecting him and trying to get him to confess. His brain is so badly damaged (and worsening as the interview goes on) that it leads to a tragic cycle of circular conversation, as he’s barely conscious, that is pretty hard to watch.

Jesus Christ, you would make an awful cop.

Who could possibly expect there to be a bullet lodged in the head of a guy saying that he got shot while showing obvious physical signs of a gun shot wound and communicating as if there was a bullet lodged in his head. Just such a mystery.

Lol. “To be fair”.

That's why you do medical check when something is not right.
