The evidence has clearly been overwhelmingly in his favor. So thanks for the laugh.
You have no clue what the GJ will do. And with the recent news that Dorian has been charged with filing a false report, you are dreaming.

Buck Ewer said:

The charge of a false police report is from 2011 and he was never convicted of anything from that incident. That charge has absolutely no bearing on this case in any way.

You have no clue what the GJ will do either, but I have faith that they will do the right thing and recommend that Wilson be charged with 2nd degree murder.

I have been correct in predicting the outcome, more than I have been wrong, when a case of a white guy shooting an un-armed black teen comes up.

Missouri cop was badly beaten before shooting Michael Brown, says source | Fox News

Darren Wilson, the Ferguson, Mo., police officer whose fatal shooting of Michael Brown touched off more than a week of demonstrations, suffered severe facial injuries, including an orbital (eye socket) fracture, and was nearly beaten unconscious by Brown moments before firing his gun, a source close to the department's top brass told FoxNews.com.

“The Assistant (Police) Chief took him to the hospital, his face all swollen on one side,” said the insider. “He was beaten very severely.”

The source also said the dashboard and body cameras, which might have recorded crucial evidence, had been ordered by Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson, but had only recently arrived and had not yet been deployed.

If this article is accurate, they're going to have a hard time indicting Officer Wilson. If the dash and body cams have any footage, along with testimonies and corroborating evidence that exonerate him, will this become a 'flash point' for more riots/protests?

Ballistics show that the gun was fired about 20 feet away from Brown. So even if there was a scuffle near the car, that does not justify shooting an unarmed suspect.

No one tells me what to think.
I observed and noted the new use of the word "thug" on Fux Snooze and immediately saw it used here whenever a substitute for the "n" word was needed by a racist.

The chief must be naive or something. Withholding the report makes the department appear suspicious of wanton cover up, if it is, the chief and the cronies must know the federal government indicts for obstruction and covering up or hiding evidence. Being forthcoming can remove doubt in people's minds. I wonder how many years in prison he and his cronies might get for that, and will the chief still be eligible for any retirement pay he might have coming to him from Ferguson taxpayers?

Apparently the ferguson PD turned the investigation over to the ST Louis PD right away. Ferguson PD does not have a police report to make public.

Buck Ewer said:

He bumped his head on the car door when Brown pushed it back at him. No one was "beaten".
That was enough to piss Wilson off to the point where he wanted to kill an unarmed surrendering kid.
So that is exactly what he did.

The shooter cop didn't even write much of anything on the incident report. The Ferguson PD didn't either. Just name and date. Kind of weird.

The St. Louis County police department presumably did file an incident report, but any such documents will not be made public until a grand jury investigating the officer-involved shooting concludes its investigation, according to officials from the office who briefed NBC News on the case.

Agree with the first sentence, but not the second. The PD does not normally release any information in an on going investigation nor am I aware of a law that requires the PD to release statements by anyone accused. Can you clarify what you mean by that?

Excon said:

Odd. I said it was in the article. :shrug:
It is not a direct quote. And it does not say what you think it means, especially as they have told us that all the shots came from the front.

All the shots came from the front.
That is what you have to deal with.


[/INDENT][/INDENT]
There are no shots in the back of the head.


You need to try and understand what was meant within the context of the above, because it does not say what you held it out to say.
To understand, you need to tilt the mans head forward as if he is attempting to tackle/bum rush.

Watch the video at this link to get a better understanding of what he is pointing out and keep in mind that they already told you that all the shots came from the front.

Mike Brown was shot in the back of the head. You have yet to show evidence that the shots came from the front.

Here is more evidence that Brown was shot in the back of the head.

"The bullet that struck Michael Brown fatally in the head was moving from a back to front direction, and Brown appeared to have fallen straight forward onto the ground after he was shot, one of the medical examiners who conducted an independent autopsy tells The Daily Caller." (Examiner: Bullet Moved From Back To Front Of Brown's Head | The Daily Caller)

"Baden and Parcells conducted the independent autopsy, and confirmed that six bullets entered Brown's body, with one having entered back to front, and that there were no signs of struggle in Brown's shooting death." (Independent Autopsy Finds 'No Signs of Struggle' in Michael Brown Death - The Wire)

No it is not the opinion of a hack, but rather the opinion of those who conducted the autopsy. Please learn to tell the difference.

Fenton said:

YOU SAID definitively, " Mike Brown was shot in the back of the head .

So according to YOUR statement, there was no question.

YOU based that on some ridiculous assumption made by some HACK, who took the results of the autopsy and twisted them to fit his own false narrative.

buck said:

Actually, Lawrence indicates it is customary in recent years for the police union lawyers to run in and prevent the shooter from writing an incident report. Hardly "Kind of weird." as you indicated.

Not for nothing but is there anything more substantial than Lawrence's say so?
