That was my theory as well.
His first shots were aimed to injure, not kill...................
Have you shot a handgun much? Not attacking you, but I will bet not.

“His first shots were aimed to injure, not kill...................”
This NEVER happens. Deadly force is just that, once the decision is made to shoot, the intent is always shoot to kill. Shooting to “wound” is hollywood crap.
The lack of laser accuracy is likely a result of just having his face beat in .
I believe what your seeing in the shot pattern up the body is the officer bringing his weapon up from low ready position. you never shoot to wound and you never shoot to kill. This is not Holywood folks. A young fit person can cover 35ft. fast. That is why he is triggering as he is bringing the gun up. The shot to the top of his head is the last shot and was likely fired a split second after the shot that brought MB down and hit as MB was falling.
If he had an orbital blowout, all of his shots were shot with one eye. I’m surprised he hit anything.
