Fact-Checking King Von's Autopsy: Addressing Viral Reddit Rumors and Legal Reality
The post-mortem examination performed by the Fulton County Medical Examiner provides the baseline technical record of the shooting. The official autopsy report details multiple penetrating and perforating gunshot wounds across Bennett's body, primarily tracking through his torso and back.
Forensic pathology reports documented that several projectiles lacerated major vascular structures and perforated internal organs, inducing rapid hypovolemic shock. Stippling patterns around the primary entrance wounds indicated intermediate-range fire, aligning directly with the surveillance footage that captured Leeks discharging his weapon mere feet away. Medical examiners located projectile fragments within the pleural cavities, later submitted to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) for ballistic comparison.
The cause of death was definitively designated as gunshot wounds of the torso, with the manner of death ruled homicide. Toxicological screening showed standard clinical resuscitation compounds administered by Grady Memorial trauma surgeons alongside non-lethal, incidental substances, confirming that physical trauma alone caused his death.
