Police Lied about London's Sean Bell

From BBC News:

Police misled a pathologist into thinking Jean Charles de Menezes "vaulted" over a Tube barrier before being shot dead, an inquest has heard.

Dr Kenneth Shorrock was told the Brazilian jumped over a barrier before "stumbling" down an escalator.

The pathologist said he was given the wrong information during a "walk-through" with officers.

Mr de Menezes was killed in 2005 in south London by police who mistook him for a failed 21 July suicide bomber.

The Brazilian was shot seven times in the head at close range on 22 July 2005...
