/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.

To their credit?

Regardless, he should have been seen by medical personnel before being interrogated. His face is 1/3rd black/blue, it would have taken an hour to get someone over, or take him to a hospital, for a check him out but instead he had to wait 6 hours in a cruiser and 4 hours in an interrogation with absolutely jackshit. I've seen suspects with zero injuries say they were hurt and taken to the hospital only to be immediately released back to the cops for interrogation. THAT'S STANDARD PROCEDURE, not whatever the fuck they did. They deserve no credit except for his death.

Yes, to their credit, as in, "to their credit, if I found a suspect with a dead girlfriend and the story he had that he went back to sleep claiming he was shot in the head as well yet still conscious and speaking, I too would think his claim at least slightly dubious at best."

Its considerably less dubious when you actually look at both his face and his unusual behavior, though. This isn't someone obviously completely healthy making that claim, this is someone who clearly does have something wrong with him.
