Chris Dorner Autopsy Offered as Proof Dorner Shot Himself

[BRIEF] According to an autopsy report released Friday, Christopher Dorner, the fugitive ex-police officer who killed several people in February, 2013, was killed by a single gunshot wound to the head. The autopsy report is being offered as official confirmation that Dorner killed himself as he was under siege by a massive police force that had surrounded the Big Bear cabin in which Dorner was hiding out, and which was on fire at the time of Dorner’s death.

Dorner began a series of killings Feb. 6, motivated by vengeance against the LA Police Department for what Dorner perceived to be unjust treatment within the force.

Dorner had been fired by the LAPD under circumstances that included Dorner’s bringing of complaints against fellow officers for undue use of force against civilians during arrests.

Dorner detailed his motives in a lengthy manifesto.
