Durham officer ‘missed’ gun in search of teen who shot himself in custody

The Durham Police Department has come to the conclusion that Jesus Huerta was able to commit suicide in the back of an officer’s squad car because the officer missed the gun on the teen during a search, and WRAL thinks this is a bombshell?
We’re clearly dealing with the greatest minds in media.
Some of the other other findings from the report are actually interesting, and go a long way towards fleshing out the story.

For those of you who think it is difficult to move your hands around to a position to shoot yourself in the head while handcuffed, you might be surprised how easy it actually is.
Kids, don’t try this at home.
