The other goes a bit further and attributes a grazing shot to the arm as having actually come from behind, and the autopsy got it wrong. Note that if your arm is down and you are shot from behind, the wound would rip from back to front. If your arm is up and you are advancing, again the wound would rip from back to front of the arm.

Thank you for the clarification.

This might sound like a dumb question, but, how many bullets does the officer have in his gun? Can't they count the number of bullets used to determine if bullets were shot but missed hitting the victim? Or determine that every bullet used hit the victim?
