Man mistaken for mall gunman was shot from behind, pathologist finds

Emantic “EJ” Bradford Jr., who was fatally shot by an officer at an Alabama mall Thanksgiving night after he was mistaken for a gunman, was shot three times from behind, according to a review conducted by a forensic pathologist at the request of the slain man’s family. Attorney Ben Crump said at a press conference Monday that the findings show the officer should be charged with a crime.
