My understading of the autopsy, from other analyses ive seen of at least what’s been released (the family one, not the two others) are that the entry wounds are consistant with a stitching of the six shots from lower left to upper right with the second to final shot hitting Browns right eye and the final shot impacting the top of the skull as Brown was falling forward. All taken by an officer who was impacted by having taken blows to the face that had degregaded his vision in one eye.

That would mean that the six shots that struck were fired in succession, withou pause. That doesn’t preclude other shots being fired, but does cause problems with the 7 + pause + 4 allegation.

In that view, the last 4 were _after_ the string of 6 hits (plus one miss), which in that case are all misses. No harm done then, leaving nothing more than speculation about 2 seconds of mindset of a gravely wounded man who just successfully fought for his life and was still on an extreme adrenaline rush & in a deeply fearful state of mind. “Reflective contemplation is not required in the presence of an upraised knife” (nor, presumably, in the scant seconds after it is dropped).

Another consistent theory would be 7 “stitched” up the arm (3 close misses), pause, 4 at head with 2 misses. My interpretation of the autopsy sketch suggests arm & head may not have been part of the same “stitching”.
