Tragic new details are emerging in the shooting death of Atlanta rapper B Green, and they’re igniting outrage. An autopsy report has confirmed that the 44-year-old artist, known for his work with the Duct Tape Entertainment collective, was shot a staggering 17 times in the back.
Disturbing Autopsy Findings
The medical examiner’s report, obtained by 11Alive, reveals a shocking detail: there were absolutely no wounds to the front of B Green’s body. This finding alone has his family and supporters questioning the level of force used by the off-duty Atlanta police officer, Gerald Walker, who fired the shots.
B Green was killed on October 11 behind the Five Paces Inn in Buckhead. His longtime manager and friend, Timothy Coleman, expressed his disbelief. “I just couldn’t believe it was 17 times in the back,” he told reporters. “There’s not one shot in the front.”
Conflicting Accounts and Demands for Justice
Those close to B Green believe the autopsy results prove he was not facing the officer when he was shot. This contradicts the official account, which states Officer Walker was working private security at the bar and that a disturbance occurred inside the venue prior to the shooting. A friend who was with B Green that night claims Walker was already at the entrance, in uniform, and searching people.
These conflicting narratives, coupled with the autopsy’s stark findings, are fueling intense public pressure. The family, fans, and activists are united in their demand for transparency, accountability, and criminal charges against Officer Walker.
The Larger Conversation on Police Violence
While the investigation is ongoing, many see this case as a catalyst for a broader discussion about police violence, not just in Atlanta but across the nation. The details surrounding B Green’s death raise critical questions about de-escalation and the appropriate use of force.
