Autopsy: Detroit imam shot 20 times at FBI raid

Let me see, according to the article the man was shot 20 times and was said to have died instantly; now that’s a revelation. Was he supposed to live more than a few seconds after being shot 20 times? And by the way, why was he shot 20 times? It sounds like overkill to me (no pun intended). TGO

DETROIT – A medical examiner says a Muslim prayer leader was who shot 20 times during an FBI raid at a warehouse in a Detroit suburb died instantly.

Dr. Carl Schmidt released the autopsy report for Luqman Ameen Abdullah on Monday, three months after Abdullah was killed. It had been withheld at the request of police.

The FBI says Abdullah was killed while resisting arrest and firing a gun inside a Dearborn warehouse on Oct. 28. He was the imam of a Detroit mosque.

Dearborn police say it will take several weeks for them to complete their investigation. The Council on American-Islamic Relations is calling for an independent investigation.

The FBI says Abdullah was a leader of a national radical Sunni group that wants to create an Islamic state within the U.S. His family has denied allegations that he was anti-government.
