A 21-year-old man was found shot in the head while handcuffed in the back of a patrol car Saturday night. Now police have launched an investigation to determine what happened.

"As protocol, he was handcuffed behind his back, double-locked and searched," said Jonesboro Police Department Sgt. Lyle Waterworth in an interview with WREG-TV.
Just minutes later, police said they heard a thumping noise, turned around and found Carter shot in the head.
As well, the CNN story mentions that he was left handed, but shot in his right temple. And right before being arrested, he had been on the phone with his girlfriend, saying he'd call her from jail.
Is the cop lying? Seems like it. Who do you believe?
I think Cop is lying and needs to face punishment/lose his job.
