[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Despite the wife's claim that her husband was holding a book, multiple media sources report no book was found at all at the scene.  Only marihuana, an ankle holster, and a loaded gun with his prints all over it were found.

And the wife also claims she wasn't aware he even owned a gun at all - even though he had it strapped right to his ankle that day.

It's almost like she's completely lying about the whole thing. [/quote]

+1.

It's pretty obvious, when you watch the video. She shows little interest in approaching and helping her husband, just in taping and cursing the police.[/quote]

And what about her repeated demands "don't do it Keith!"

Don't do what?

What didn't she want him to do?

What did he tell her he might do?

We obviously can't trust her after all her lies which have come to light.  And Keith is dead - at the hands of another AA male. So we are left to speculate.

[b]I wonder if he was planning "suicide by cop" all along?[/b]  It seems like the most likely scenario to explain this strange set of facts.[/quote]
[b]If[/b] he had a TBI it wouldn't be surprising. Traumatic brain injury, ptsd and suicide go hand in hand. Its a big if though because there has been no medical proof given.[/quote]

I agree TBI could be a consistent factor here; I'm trying to understand this shooting and the suspects bizarre behavior which led up to it.

So far, the suicide by cop theory seems the most plausible given the facts. [/quote]

Meant to add:  I see no evidence that the black police officer shot Keith just because Keith was black - as many of the protesters seem to believe.

I don't see any evidence to support the allegations of racial profiling either.  First off, the officer was black.  Second, the police were not even in the area for Keith; they came to complex to serve a warrant on a DIFFERENT INDIVIDUAL.  They even noticed Keith rolling an illegal marijuana "blunt" and chose to ignore that illegal activity (talk about de-escalating!).

Furthermore, it wasn't until they same the illegal gun that they were compelled to at least investigate.

On top of all that, they were threatened with a gun wielded by an apparent drug suspect and yet they still politely requested he drop the weapon at least 12 times while they themselves were under imminent threat.

I'm not seeing what else everyone expected from the police by this point.  And again - the officer was black.[/quote]
