She had a knife in her hand and seven bullets in her body. She weighed 100 pounds but two burly policeman said they were in fear for their lives.

Charleena Lyles, a pregnant mother killed by Seattle police in her apartment in front of her children, was shot seven times, including twice in the back, according to an autopsy released on Wednesday.

The medical examiner’s report on Lyles, 30, who was killed after she called 911 to report a burglary, classified the death as a homicide and noted that the bullets cut through her uterus and hit her fetus, estimated to be 14 to 15 weeks old.

Lyles’ death sparked national outrage and reignited debates about law enforcement’s disproportionate killing of African Americans and officers’ treatment of people with mental illness.

The two police officers have claimed that Lyles was holding a knife when they killed her on 18 June, but her family has questioned law enforcement’s narrative and justification for using deadly force, noting that she was 100lb, 5ft 3in and not a threatening person.

Lyles was shot twice in the abdomen, twice in the back and once each in the chest, arm and hip, according to the report.

“Did they shoot her as she fell to the ground? Was she running away?” said Katrina Johnson, Lyles’ cousin, in an interview on Wednesday. “How did she get shot in the back? I still don’t know that and understand that, but any which way, it was excessive force. Seven times for her little pregnant 100lb self was out of control.”

The 14-page King County medical examiner’s office report, released by a family attorney and published by the Seattle Times, raises fresh questions about why the officers, Jason Anderson and Steven McNew, used lethal force and fired a round of bullets at the woman at close range.

The officers had arrived at Lyles’ apartment door less than an hour after Lyles dialed 911 to report a burglary, when she discovered her Xbox was missing. After roughly two minutes and 30 seconds, police fired at her from about five feet away as her one-year-old and four-year-old children crawled nearby, police records revealed. Her 11-year-old son was in another room during the shooting.

It’s unclear how the encounter escalated, with police audio recordings capturing a conversation that was initially polite and cordial. In department interviews, the officers claimed that at some point she had a knife on her and that they feared for their safety. The officers didn’t have Tasers on them, even though one of them was supposed to be carrying one.

The official determination that two of the bullets hit Lyles in the back has further fueled the family’s claims that it was excessive and unjustified when the policemen, who are both white, decided to shoot her.

One of the bullets entered her back near her spine and “extensively” lacerated her lungs, ribs and inferior vena cava, which carries blood to the heart, the report said. She was hit on the right and left sides of her back, and two of the bullets hit her uterus.

“How can someone be shot in the back if they are coming at you with knives?” said André Taylor, a local police reform activist assisting the Lyles family.

The toxicology report also found no drugs or alcohol in Lyles’ system when she was killed, the Seattle Times reported. An investigation into the shooting is continuing. Seattle police declined to comment on the autopsy.

When will this madness stop? If you are mentally ill or your skin is brown maybe you ought not call the cops around when you need help because the help you get may be the death of you yet.

When people quit coming at Police with 9" CARVING knives.

There's an article in today's Seattle Times which (written purposefully to draw sneers towards the Police) VERY clearly explains the Police's issues with this woman and....why she is DEAD.

Read it for the facts (no...I won't link it for anyone...I'll presume most folks know how to use a search engine).

If you do....you will find enough of them (facts) to tell you why....she is dead.

(And...why the Police are not at fault).

Do you have any proof she had any knife at all, after all the recodings were all of a cordial encounter, yet somehow all the rcorders fails simultaniously with her pulling a 9" knife and threatening the police she called?
Sure sounds legit.

She is dead because she brought a knife to a gun fight....a gun fight she created.

NOT because she's black.

NOT because the Police are nefarious.

NOT because "the man" is out to get her.

She's dead because she came at another human.....with a weapon...and that other human tried to protect himself.

Now, in America...you are correct. Shoot to kill anyone I want if...I feel, IF I FEEL in danger. So I too should get to shoot
a n y b o d y I want IF I FEEL in danger.

Whether or not I was or they were actually in danger...doesn't fucking matter.

ALL that matters now is if I or you or the police...feel they are in danger.

The American civil culture of the 21st century...shoot and ask questions later.

Get ready America, the US police state is not far behind all of this.

I want to meet whoever it was who shot this woman in the back. Now there is a real man.

I had to shoot him judge, I f e l t I was in danger.

They could 'clean up' Harlem or Chicago in 1 night. Just go shoot everybody claiming you felt you were in danger.

The cops will place that knife in her hand to make it an airtight case, got video? Same with her statement about killing them, she may have said it earlier and they over dubbed it you have no clue what went on, ONLY WHAT THEY SAY WENT ON and that goes for all police murders.

Well, here is a link to the YouTube version of the audiotape. Kind of garbled. I can’t hear the word knife or 9 inches or 7 inches or 2 inches mentioned at all. Maybe you can point out where on the timeline the knife is mentioned. I do hear cops talking before they go into the apartment, saying this is the lady who says she and her daughter are going to turn into wolves, isn’t it? Police start yelling get back get back at three minutes 31 seconds into the tape and then they start shooting. Never a word about her putting down her weapon. And I confess I did not hear the clickety-clack of a high-speed knife attack. Maybe it is just me.
